Cate and Keith met while studying abroad in Athens, Greece during the spring semester of their junior year at the University of Wisconsin. During those 4 months abroad, they became close friends; playing basketball, traveling together on the weekends, and enjoying good conversation over a glass of Grecian wine. It wasn't until the end of their program when they both made a pitstop in Edinburgh, Scotland for continued traveling that Keith took Cate by surprise and admitted to wanting to be more than friends. In that moment of courage, their friendship grew into a loving relationship, and that relationship has continued to flourish over the last 8 years.
