Welcome to the our travel registry. There's no way around it, Kip and I love to travel. We traveled together when we first fell in love and now we are off on our 2nd world tour. Those of you who know us well, know that we like to spend more money on experiences than things. And while we definitely need a household upgrade we can't wait to get away from it all and get out and see the world. I am delighted to have found a registry that helps our friends and family donate to our trip. What a trip it is turning out to be... there will be lots to choose from. I best take a good camera to show all of you what I've done with your gifts! xoxox Tamara and Kip

The safest way to travel around the world is to fly. In fact, its the only timely way to get to most places. So this is supporting Kip and I flying to Greece, Capetown, Egypt, Thailand, India, and possibly Mongolia and home again!

Of course the second best way to travel is by train! It is by far safer than autobuses! We will travel by train mostly in Southeast Asia where you can get from Thailand all the way to Singapore by train. Also India has a great railway!
