A Biker Chronicles His Trip From London to Hong Kong Via Instagram
Rob Lutter has spent the last 19 months biking across Europe into Asia.
A week ago, Rob Lutter had about 3,800 followers on Instagram. Today, he has over 29,000.
Lutter's overnight fame, fueled by coverage on Mashable, The Huffington Post and CNN, is understandable. The 29-year-old has spent the last 19 months biking across Europe into Asia, and has been Instagramming shots of his travels. I caught up with him over email from Hong Kong, where he is taking a breather to come up with some more funds ("I am nearly bankrupt," he says.) Initially self-funded, he has raised some money through the website GoFundMe as well as for several charity organizations for the trip so far.
