We met on the first day of school in 2010. At 12 and 13, there was no way anybody could have predicted that we would end up together. We remained friends through the rest of school but we reconnected at a party in 2016. From there, we became swing dancing partners and we were both hooked.

After our first perfect summer, we were determined to make it work despite the obstacles ahead of us. Over the next 4 years, we spent over 2 years as a long distance couple taking place in 3 different states and 3 different countries.
