Vasilis proposed at Easter 2025, on the day we arrived at my mother’s place in Italy, the house where I grew up. My mum had dinner prepared and was losing it because Vasilis dragged me out for a walk (Vasilis wanted to go for A WALK! If you know, you know), and mealtime in my family is literally sacred. We went for that walk — unfortunately a very short one, because I had forgotten the keys — so it happened in the family garden, under a beautiful sunset and a wonderfully clear sky. Vasilis chose my hometown to honour my dad, who had passed away the year before. It brought me, and all my family, great happiness.

We both came to Zurich for our studies, that lead to work and life surprised us with something even better — we met each other, and now we’re excited to celebrate this next chapter with all of our closest friends and loved ones!
