My Travel Story

by: Grace and Emily Elpis Start Date: Oct 4, 2017 - End Date: Oct 3, 2018
Hey everyone! We (Emily and Grace) are sailing the Great Loop! We’re trading grad school applications for unique life experiences by taking a Columbia 8.7 on this 6,000 mile continuous waterway around the eastern half of the United States.

 

Since we have yet to begin our careers, we have the unique ability to focus on personal growth and to discover just how much we are capable of accomplishing. We want to explore a simpler lifestyle, experience challenging situations, and learn to problem solve on our own.  Most of all, we want to take time to do what makes us happiest and inspire others to do the same.

 

We appreciate any contribution that helps us afford necessary upgrades before we leave in August. We are excited to plan and carry out this dream and can’t wait to share our adventure with you! Check out our blog for the whole story.

 

Much love,

Emily and Grace
