Jake & Emmie

👋 we're Jake and Emmie!

We are living out our dream of traveling full time in a Ford Transit van we built ourselves. We've been on the road for over a year and have explored most of the USA and Canada. Follow along as we head south of the border into Mexico and make the epic journey all the way down to Patagonia!
