So, there I was on a cold Monday morning on my way to LA for a work conference. The sudden cold caught me off guard and I did not dress warm enough. Since it was a local flight we were transported by bus to the plane, so we had to go outside twice from the airport building to get onto the plane. Needless to say, by the time I boarded the plane I was icy cold with a runny nose and blue lips. It was freezing. So as I walked up to my seat I saw this very handsome guy in the seat next to me. Embarrassed by my state, I smile apologetically and indicated that I need to move in next to him. He looked up and smiled, offered me a tissue and his jacket, because he could clearly see that this girl needs warmth! We chatted non stopped the whole 2 hours on the flight and really just felt comfortable with each other. We just connected and the rest is history.

It's been 14 months and 8 days since that day we met on the flight to LA. We've been dating from that day and things have never been better! We we're happy and in love and both our careers also flourished! It has been a busy few months and so we decided that we both need a proper break. Somewhere warm! And what is better that an island vacation with a beach and cocktails. So off we went to Santorini, Greece. We both loved the movie Mamma Mia and always said we would love to go there. So off we went! I never even thought that a proposal is on the horizon, we've talked about our future and jokingly said when we get married and grow old together etc. But we've not had any serious conversations. So there we were, on the island, relaxing in the sun and sipping cocktails! We've just ordered new ones and Pina Colada has always been my favourite. But this time the decorations looked a bit different. On the straw was a rather heavy object. Could it be?? Yes, it was!!! An engagement ring!!! And as I looked up he was on his knees, with a little local band playing "Take a chance on me"!
