How We Met

A European Whirlwind Romance

In the summer of 2016, solo traveler Camila meets Cleveland native Mark in Europe while adventuring with a group of Canadians, Australians, and Kiwis. Being the only Americans, they quickly formed a bond. After 19 exhilarating days of cracking jokes and busing from one country to the next, the tour concludes. They go their separate ways, not knowing whether they would see each other again. A few days later, Camila gets the courage (plus some motivating words from a friend) to call Mark out of the blue to start a conversation with a boy from Cleveland. Both had been taken by their mutual love of travel, culture, and family. Five years later, Mark buys a pup (...oh and a ring 😉 ) and proposes.
