About Me

Hi There!
I’m Kelly, and my favorite travel partner is my husband, Dave. Before we met, each of us had always loved to travel. When we started getting serious about each other, we knew that the ultimate test would be whether or not we were compatible travelers, so we gave it a try. Bingo! We were and still are.
Over the years, we’ve had a lot of fun and have made treasured memories on our trips together. We have shared a lot of photos and stories about our travels with our friends and family on social media with enthusiastic responses. Trip Hatchery is a result of that feedback. I was asked many times about how I planned our trips and if I could help others plan theirs. I wanted to share information in a more organized way, and give some insight as to how our trips are hatched, incubated, and finally take flight. It definitely doesn’t happen by accident.
