It takes a special kind of friendship to road trip together. So when we heard that Macy Pate and Emily Breedlove were taking a 6-month BFF road trip post-college, we wanted to hear their stories. From tips on finding free camping to insights on what this trip together has meant, you might be tempted to call up a friend and plan your next road trip after tuning in.

Featuring Macy Pate and Emily Breedlove

Hosted by Laura Borichevsky

About Emily:

Emily graduated last May with BFA in fashion design, so she’s a seamstress and designer by education. She wants to start a program that teaches industrial sewing and manufacturing skills to the underprivileged. Emily loves learning anything and everything about the world and she thinks traveling is the best way to do that. She’s also passionate about coffee, ice cream, and Post Malone, in no particular order.

About Macy:

Macy graduated this past December with a psychology degree from Harding University, with the ultimate goal of being a caseworker for displaced families/refugees. She’s a photographer and has been shooting engagements/weddings/seniors/anything professionally for a few years now. Traveling is her #1 fave thing to do. Seeing the world and learning new perspectives is, in her opinion, the best way to combat ignorance. Macy also loves movies, donuts, and dancing (badly).
