A ♡ M

The day we met for our first date at a coffee shop in downtown LA was the same day Miguel found out he was accepted to Columbia University in New York. Since he was going to move to New York, we decided it didn’t make sense to date but kept hanging out and became friends until he moved to New York in January.

Alexis visited New York for her cousin Eric’s college graduation. Miguel and Alexis had kept in contact, frequently texting and FaceTiming but as “just friends”. While in New York, Alexis met up with Miguel at the Whitney museum and they admitted they liked each other and decided to try dating long distance.

Our first international trip together took us to London, Paris, and Amsterdam. In Paris, we of course had to see the Eiffel Tower at sunset. Afterwards, Miguel proposed to Alexis at one of the secluded benches underneath the tower while we admired the lights.
