We are Alisa and Tessa.
Both of us graduated from Santa Clara University in California and are currently on a mission to circle the earth within a year. Our goals are to attend weddings, participate in festivals, shave our whole bodies including our eyebrows (. . . still working on the goals section . . .), and push ourselves to go beyond all previously set limits. We would absolutely love you to comment as often and as long as you possibly can. Or you can email us at bright.alisa@gmail.com or tessaweston@gmail.com.
