Hello,

Thanks for visiting our site. After our wedding this summer we will fly to Istanbul, Turkey, and then spend our honeymoon travelling from Istanbul back to England by bicycle. This will involve roughly 2,500 miles of pedalling, about a 7-week ride. We plan to leave Istanbul on June 26th and arrive back in Devon, England, before August 20th 2008.

This journey will take us through Turkey, Greece, Italy, Corsica and France. Please, if you can, help us to celebrate our marriage by giving to Doctors Without Borders at the ‘Give Now’ link. This is a cause close to our hearts, as they provide lifesaving emergency aid to refugees and others affected by natural or man-made disasters around the world. As you may know, we both get to work with refugee communities, many of whom have needed such services in the past. We are paying all the costs of the trip ourselves so everything you donate will go directly to Doctors Without Borders. We would really appreciate you giving any amount you can spare.  
Not sure how much you'd like to donate? How about... 

   
- The age you feel
- The number of years, months or days you’ve been married
- A certain amount per…mile, negative mile (i.e. mile biked in the wrong direction), flat tire, squabble over the map, item mislaid or permanently lost...  

We would much prefer that people donate to Doctors Without Borders through the 'Donate Now' button than get us a wedding gift. Please do what you can to help us meet our fundraising target.    

Thank you very much!
- Jake and Veronica
