(Out of order, I know--we still have Colombia foods to post, and that will be up shortly. But I just had to share the fact that I have got one seriously happy husband on my hands right now.)
We were married on June 6, 2009. We were sick of our jobs and sick of New York, so we decided to take a really long honeymoon and travel the world. We ended up traveling for almost two years. Please feel free to post any questions you might have about our trip or your trips, and we'll do our best to reply.
