OMG! Who here has ever traveled by Greyhound Bus?

I've done long distance by Greyhound as a teenager.

It is no fun. It takes minimally 3 times longer to get where you want to go by bus. It's usually crowded, smelly, and cramped. You'll get over the whole "I'M ON THE WAY TO NYC" faster than you can imagine.

It works as a last resort, I guess.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

No offense but my whole life I've never done anything on my own plus it's just dangerous.{if you're female anyway} If I were doing that with someone that'd be ok but not alone.

I think I could hack a bus for a few hours and I might have someone meeting me there.

O, from Portland, ME it wouldn't be so bad. Maybe an 8 hour trip ahahhaa

Plan to stay overnight in NYC if you do take the bus. Maybe give yourself a weekend down there, since the bus alone will very likely take a whole day to get there. (In a car from Portland to NYC, it's about 5-6 hours)

There's nowhere I can't reach.
