I have it on good authority that I’ll have the funding for our roadtrip this week. Give a few days to gather up all the equipment, we will be launching on our trip, maybe on monday - June 23rd.

Visiting 50 states is going to be a huge endeavor. I’ve promised my sponsor that I can and will complete the tour and interview 50 bloggers in 50 states(and some of Canada). If funds are stretched though I have the option of finishing the roadtrip remotely. But hopefully between sponsors, donors, etc we’ll be able to get it done.

My sponsor is lining me up an interview possibly with Amber Mac a tech vlogger / journalist who is big in Canada - also I’ve dropped an email to John Chow - who has agreed to do an interview IF I can get there before he leaves for a month in Mid-July.

I’m starting in Ohio and have to race to get the interviews done in the eastern USA then get to Vancouver, BC as fast as possible.

Interviewing John Chow would be a huge opportunity, and will help push the exposure this trip gets. I’ll also be interviewing a less famous blogger in BC  - my goal is to give the average joe blow blogger some exposure and interview everyday joe’s. But a john chow here and there will definitely be nice too.

STay tuned - this is going to be big.

We still need bloggers - especially in Northeastern, OH - Northern PA - and Northern NY (my first 3 stops.)

I’ve chosen the cities that we will be stopping in. We will take any blogger in the state as long as they are able to meet us at the chosen city.

I do apologize for any who would like to be interviewed but cannot meet us in these destinations, but we have picked them as they are logistically the best cities to visit in order to save as much gas as we can.

I’ve already calculated the trip being around 15,000 miles, and costing at least $3,500 just in gas alone.

As such  - Donations are GREATLY welcomed. Just send money via paypal to:

We are also selling small vinyl stickers on our car - they are going to be just a little bigger than a standard mouse, and will take up any free space on our car that isn’t covered by our sponsor(which we are announcing soon - this company is an awesome new company with great potential).

If interested send us a graphic / logo you would like to use - Each vinyl sticker will cost approximately $50 and will also include free 125×125 ads.

I’d also like to thank everyone who’s still following this trip - believe it or not - not only are we planning this cross country voyage but we’re moving cross country in the process - we just bought a house in Cleveland and are moving from Utah this coming week. So please bare with me if I’m not updating daily, as we will be unable to really update while on the road (getting our laptop soon).

We are totally excited to get this trip launched - if our sponsor agrees to the expenses I sent in - we will be on the road most likely June 2nd.

Best way to stay updated is of course to follow me on twitter: user = patrickcurl
