The Rogues, Bret and Greg, are in their late twenties with over a decade of European travel experience between them.

Bret Terrill has lived, worked, studied and traveled extensively through Europe. Mr. Terrill has previously worked as an associate editor at a literary magazine, On the Make (formerly the Chicago Literary Review), and done freelance web page design. After a year spent in a study abroad program in London, Mr. Terrill returned to the States to complete his bachelor's degree in literature. Since then he's returned to Europe nearly every year, a backpack strapped to his shoulders, earning money doing everything from making beds in a Belgian hostel to bartending in a Turkish nightclub.

Greg Dierkers has gathered extensive writing experience throughout his career in the environmental field, publishing weekly articles in trade journals and the independent press. Having penned reports on European transportation issues, he is well acquainted with the hum and spark of the European rail system. Mr. Dierkers has traveled and partied throughout Europe while earning a master’s degree. A true environmentalist, Mr. Dierkers likes to brag about the number of women he has wooed while riding on the world’s public transportation systems.
