Who are these guys?

If you happened to just stumble across this page, pull up a chair and stay for a while.  We're Dove and Josh Russo, and this site is dedicated to our lives and travels.  Mostly it's so our friends and family can keep track of us as we travel the world - we have just been invted to join the Peace Corps and are leaving July 14th for Cape Verde, Africa.  Before that, we spent some time on the road traveling North America and having the time of our lives! 

If you look over to your right, you'll see a bunch of links that will direct to you to individual pages within our site.  So pour yourself a glass of wine (leave the bottle nearby), click away and have fun!

Some parting words, from Mr. Whittman...

Listen!  I will be honest with you.
I do not offer the old smooth prizes,
But offer rough new prizes,
These are the days that must happen to you:

You shall not heap up what is called riches,
You shall scatter with lavish hand all that you earn or achieve.
However sweet the laid-up stores,
However convenient the dwellings,
You shall not remain there.
However sheltered the port,
And however calm the waters,
You shall not anchor there.
However welcome the hospitality that welcomes you
You are permitted to receive it but a little while
Afoot and lighthearted, take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before you,
The long brown path before you,
leading wherever you choose. 

Say only to one another:
Camerado, I give you my hand!
I give you my love, more precious than money,
I give you myself before preaching or law:
Will you give me yourself?
Will you come travel with me?
Shall we stick by each other as long as we live?
- Walt Whitman
