Adventure is out there!

We met in college at Western Michigan University in 2010, but weren't good friends until 2015, when Rachel's best friend Katie re-introduced us. About a month after we started dating, Rachel took a long trip to Costa Rica to study Spanish, and Austin followed her for a last-minute trip. We fell in love there and went back the following year. Rachel moved to Vermont for 2 years for work, while Austin remained in Kalamazoo. In the summer of 2017, we both moved to the Chicago area together, where we live with our three kitties: Teddy, Miso, and Michou. In July, 2018, we took a big trip to France and explored Paris, Normandy, the Loire Valley, and Mont-Saint-Michel, where we got engaged on July 7. We can't wait for many more adventures together!
