DOUG JOHNSON: Welcome to AMERICAN MOSAIC in VOA Special English.

I'm Doug Johnson. On our program this week, we play new music from Moby…
And we answer questions about getting a green card.
But, first, we take a road trip with two bicycling brothers who are searching for community spirit in America.

America Recycled
DOUG JOHNSON: Two American brothers are riding bicycles across the country in search of community. The brothers are documenting their experience through a blog, photographs and videos. And they say what they are finding is a desire for a return to community roots. Faith Lapidus has our story.
FAITH LAPIDUS: Noah and Tim Hussin have been on the road for more than six months. The brothers left the city of Asheville, North Carolina in early November. They have traveled more than sixteen hundred kilometers since then.
Noah lived overseas for three years. When he returned, he wanted to explore the United States.
Noah’s brother, Tim, is a photographer and filmmaker. He also loves riding bicycles. He saw a chance to combine those interests and create something with his brother.
Since November, the Hussins have met Americans living in eco-villages, where people share values and responsibility in caring for the environment. The brothers have also met people working a city farm and those operating sustainable businesses.
