In a moment of serendipity, Kyle and Grace matched on Hinge in the Chicago suburbs just one day after Grace downloaded the app—and only months after she returned to the United States from Benin, West Africa. After just one day of messaging, Kyle invited Grace to visit him in California, where he was living at the time. Hours upon hours of FaceTime calls later (and just two weeks after matching), the first flight was booked. Although it was a round-trip ticket with Grace scheduled to return to Illinois after two weeks… she never did. The rest is history. ♥️
