A running start!

Wow, we've only just begun and we're already overwhelmed with how amazing our friends and family are! Huge shout outs to our very first sponsors: Galen Forrest, Quinn Ung, and Cheryl & Jo Fessenden of Barber Insurance (aka Tressa's family/employers!)

In other news, our video is finished, here it is:

Thanks again to everyone that has contributed and to everyone that has shared our fundraiser or blog; if you haven't yet, you can check out the fundraiser here, and please continue to urge your networks to support us!

Lots of love,

Kelsey & Tressa

About Our Adventure

We’re two recent college grads, taking advantage of this brief transitional pause in our lives to embark on and document our version of the great American road trip. We're hoping to get a better grasp on the place we are from, while also exploring the notion of home through writing and photography, ultimately putting together a book of our collective findings.

As we travel, first North, then stretching East across the country, and finally down South and back West, we want to talk to the people we meet, to photograph the spaces that they inhabit, or the quirks and elements of their towns and cities that make it unique to them, that make them feel like home. We want to connect with others and try to see new places from a perspective that avoids tourism as much as possible and instead delves into the essence of a place.

We invite you to share your thoughts on home as we weave together a kind of patchwork portrait of the United States, our home country.

We're accepting donations and sending our backers photographs, letters, and mementos from along the road. If you're interested in sponsoring our trip or would like to learn more about our rewards, let us know!
