Jan and Ben met in 2020 during the pandemic, at a time when the world felt uncertain and everything seemed to slow down. In the middle of all that, their story began in the simplest way — with quick hellos and passing smiles. Every morning, like clockwork, Ben just happened to be walking his dog, Yugi, right as Jan was arriving at work. At first, it felt like a coincidence… but looking back, Ben definitely had it all planned out. Thanks to Yugi — their adorable and very effective matchmaker — those casual run-ins slowly turned into conversations, inside jokes, and moments they started looking forward to each day. What started as small talk grew into long chats, shared laughter, and, before they knew it, a love that felt completely natural.
