How we met

A daring Escape

Not long after meeting each other at a braai at the home of Leon and Jolyon, we did a short hike up Helderberg Mountain, where Louise, playfully declared (after forgetting Leon's name), “You’re going to become my best friend.” And a beautiful friendship blossomed, filled with laughter, deep chats, and shared adventures. We stayed connected and after some time “in the trenches,” Louise eventually gave old Leon a chance, and just like that, Leon made a daring (and successful!) escape from the friend zone. Since then we have shared a life, a home, and many adventures together. Surrounded by great friends and family, we are excited for what comes next!
