We met at our study abroad program orientation in Paris in August 2018. We both attended Santa Clara University but had not crossed paths until we arrived in Paris. When we met at orientation we both felt an instant connection and a few weeks into the program we were already inseparable - going out together with our other friends up to five times a week and truly enjoying every moment of living abroad. At the very end of our program, we started officially dating and we were excited to go back to Santa Clara as a couple! Fast forward to graduating together, moving to San Francisco with friends, and eventually moving in together in New York City in June 2023!
