Starting today, June 16th, 2015… we (Doug & Brooke) solemnly swear to try our absolute best at completing these 101 predefined tasks within 1,001 days, all-the-while photographing, documenting and blogging our adventures along the way. Why? Because life is one big adventure, and we are determined to savor each and every blissful moment we have together and create memories that will awaken our souls.
Doug and I decided to start the Day Zero Project in order to keep our lives in motion, and to continue living life to it’s fullest potential. To travel, explore, laugh and love while in the early years of our new-found marriage. They say a set of goals with a deadline helps you achieve more than just an endless bucket list, so we’re here to find out! And give you a glimpse into our never ending love story. So get ready for the adventures, and be sure to follow along on our Instagram (@bfocused), Facebook, & Twitter (@B_focused) to see which one we’ll be crossing off next!
