What is the most stressful aspect of traveling?
Kelly: Flying! It's more annoying than stressful.
Jon: Airports.

What is the most important item in your backpack, and why?

Why did you want to be on THE AMAZING RACE?
Kelly: Crazy people do crazy things!
Jon: It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience to travel the world with my fiancée.

Have you and your partner traveled together before?
If so, what was it like?
Kelly: We went backpacking in Thailand. We bought plane tickets with no itinerary and winged it for a month. It was great!

What do you fear most about competing in THE AMAZING RACE?
Kelly: Letting Jon down, but mostly myself.
Jon: Making some stupid mistake that gets us eliminated.

What strengths and weaknesses do you bring to the Team?
Kelly: Strengths: competitive. Weaknesses: clumsy and high-strung. When Jon's one extreme, I'm the opposite. We balance each other.

What strengths and weaknesses does your teammate bring to the Team?
Kelly: Jon's a strong person with real commitment. He'll make me feel safe and calm in the stressful situations.
Jon: Kelly is everything I am not: she is thoughtful, compassionate and a caring person. She can get frustrated easily, though.

Kelly: Venting to my friends and family (usually about Jon).
Jon: I really will not miss anything, I am so grateful to have this experience.

What languages do you speak?
Kelly: English and travel Spanish.
Jon: I speak English, but in Miami that is a second language.

What destination are you hoping to visit?
Kelly: Egypt! Pyramids!
Jon: I would love to visit the Galapagos Islands, but that might be a little tricky to get to.

What country do you feel best prepared for?
Kelly: All the hot and humid places.
Jon: I would say the US. It would be great if the final leg was through my hometown in New Jersey.
