Victoria and Matt
Dear Friends & Family, We are so honored to have such wonderful people in our lives. You have supported us in many, many ways and we are grateful. We look forward to celebrating with you really soon! We initially set up this honeymoon registry to help us explore New Zealand together, as we had planned to travel there (and only there) on our honeymoon for two weeks. Traveling is one of our shared passions as most of you know. Well, this shared globe-trotting passion of ours has now led us to extend our honeymoon just a *touch* longer. We changed our flights from round trip to one way, and now plan to extend our journey for a few months to allow us to see more of the world. Strike while the iron is hot as they say! Carpe diem! (You get the picture.) While the exact plan is not so neatly laid out as I (not Matt) would hope it to be, we do plan on camper-vanning in New Zealand for the first three weeks, getting lost on a South Pacific island, chumming it up in Australia, experience the fusion of old and new in Southeast Asia, walking the coastal towns of South Africa, doing the tango in Buenos Aires, and toasting to a New Year in Rio de Janeiro. We look forward to quite a few new experiences while on this journey. Many of these wonderful ideas came from our friends and family, so we thank you for that! This honeymoon registry allows you to give these experiences as gifts which we'll always remember and cherish. And you can be sure we'll post photos of our travels just as soon as we get back, if not earlier. Thank you so much for visiting and, most importantly, thank you for sharing this great occasion with us. We're looking forward to celebrating with you soon! Love, Victoria & Matt
