About this campaign
Everyone has dreams. Some dreams are wee dreams, some are medium size, and some are friggin' huge crazy dreams that wring the world by it's neck (if it had a neck) and change how people think, live, and treat each other.
Too often, these dreams are put on the back burner. They're slowly crushed into dust under the soul-sucking "reality" of school, work, debt, life, drugs, booze, whatever. We're told we can't do it, we shouldn't do it, we should grow up, be responsible, buy a house, have kids, and work hard during all the best years of our life until maybe, just maybe, if we're lucky and we save all our money and don't get screwed by the elites running the stock market, we just might get to retire and then we can do a few things we actually want to do if we're still in good enough health to do them...before we die.
OK that may be a little harsh. I know many amazing and wonderful people who have followed the path more traveled in life and are very happy. That's great for those who want to do that. It's just not for us...at least not right now. The point is to follow your bliss, whatever that bliss may look like for you.
Call us weird, call us immature, call us spoiled entitled Millennials, but we're not alone. We're joining a whole community or counter-culture of people who have decided to stop deferring our dreams for later and start living them...now.
We've had our dream since we met and it's one of the reasons we knew we should marry each other--because we shared this dream. We've talked about it, we've thought about it, we've mulled it and prodded and poked at it. Finally, this year, we decided we are doing it. No matter what, no excuses, no more "someday."
Our dream consists of a simple 3 part plan:
1) Be jolly (because it sounds more fun than "be happy")
2) Travel the world
3) Spread jolliness worldwide
Sounds pretty great, right? We've already made a lot of progress on part 1. It's items #2 and #3 that we need your help with, gentle reader.
We're doing a lot to make this happen. We're selling all our stuff, selling our car, saving our money, working gigs on the side, blogging--heck, we've even sold our blood plasma for fun and profit. Yes, we are literally using blood money to help fund our trip.
But the fact is we need your help. Any amount helps. $1 helps. Even if you don't want to contribute money, please share this on your social media to help us raise support. Help us live our dream and hopefully inspire others to live their dreams!
All funds will be used to help us travel the world, starting in Europe, since let's face it, everyone wants to go to Europe (unless you're from Europe, in which case you probably want to go to the U.S. or New Zealand or Thailand or something).
Why should you help us, you ask? First, because if we achieve all 3 parts of our plan, then the world will be a little jollier place, and a little less crappy. There's plenty of negativity, fear, sadness, and hate out there; someone's got to fight the good fight! Second, because you're a pretty good person and we're pretty good people, too. We're probably just like you other than all the differences between us. You'd probably like us and think we're sweet. Because we are. We are freakin' sweet! We're jolly. We're Romans. We're Jolly Romans.

Udachi, comrade!
If everyone traveled more, the world would be a peaceful place. Traveling and spreading jolliness: a peaceful AND jolly world.
Two more jolly Romans want to help spread the word!
We are jolly Romans, too.
