About the Film
No map, no spare tyre and no idea. Cody sets off for an adventure of his lifetime with nothing but words of encouragement from those who did the same trip 50 years earlier.
In 1973, Graham "Skroo" Turner and his mates bought a double-decker bus, sold tickets for a seat for eager travellers and embarked on a journey of a lifetime. Unbeknown to them and their travellers this would be the beginning of something that would shape the future of travel as we know it today. Fast forward 50 years later, and Cody has decided to follow in their footsteps and see what travelling is all about. This documentary follows the excitement, the planning (or lack of), the problems, the laughs and of course the tears of what it means to be on the other side of the world that you've always called home. Cody embodies the Australian attitude as he embarks on a journey to revisit some of the places and people but also capture the essence of what drove these friends to explore the world, connect with one another, meet new people and accidently create a global business.
