Welcome...

...to Project Hope:Dream, a virtual land of promise.

Two young dreamers, dissatisfied with living the status quo as college student and post-student, want to make a difference in the world. How can two young women, living seemingly powerless existences as part of the North American system, make a splash in the ocean of hopeless humanity?

By telling stories. That's right, we are storytellers--in song, in writing, and in life.

The beginning of our journey finds us backpacking and Couchsurfing across post-industrial Eruope, scouring the islands and the Continent for hopeless dreamers. Once we find them, these disillusioned--and some illusioned, too, I'm sure--will tell Misty Boyd and Sally Boyce (no, we're not sisters) their stories...their dreams.

And we two, we simple American two, will post their stories in writing, video, and photographs, for all the world to see.

We HOPE that our readers will be inspired to action by hearing these stories. We HOPE to connect America with Europe over dreams, not differences. We HOPE to take our readers along with us into the lives of the forgotten, the looked-over, the average European...and then we HOPE that our readers and interviewees will alike DREAM--together even.

Stay tuned for an epic adventure May 18-August 10, 2011.

Project Hope:Dream...come, hope and dream with us.
