Chapter 1: The City of 100 Spires Our life together started in the east. It was St. Patrick’s Day, a magical day for two Jews in Prague. Another excuse to drink, not like we needed one while we were studying abroad. But it was a day we could drink while wearing green with shamrocks painted on our faces. And it was fun! So fun in fact, Eric's eyes were closed in almost every picture (except the one at the bottom of the page). That is where and when the long distance Blackberry Messenger (BBM) relationship was born. Chapter 2: Eurotrippin' Our relationship on the continent did not end there. There was a trip to Vienna with lots of basement bars and little spatzel, followed by a trip to Amsterdam, in which everyone loves but no one remembers. Stroop waffes, Wok to Wok, tulips and Van Gough continued a magical relationship through the constant hangover that was a study abroad experience. Three European capitals is the basis of any great relationship but the 4th would solidify what would come. A trip to Berlin would be the final stop of a whirlwind of a semester. A time when grades did not matter and life was carefree. Chapter 3: The States Love would have to wait as we finished school, one in the land of Johnny Cash and the other in Happy Valley. A time of sororities and Chili's Triple Dippers. Love would continue to blossom via a BBM chat...and a few flights, sorority date parties, spilled pitchers of beer and fried chicken dinners. Chapter 4: The Concrete Jungle Five years, five apartments (only one walk-up) and countless brunches at Cafe Mogador in New York. + some trips across continents (Albania, Ecuador, Morocco, Japan to name a few) Chapter 5: LA LA land Finally life took us to Los Angeles, the place of endless sunshine, plastic faces and juice bars.
