The City of Budding Love

Meet Me at the Bus Stop

In 2021, Chrissy and Rachel both set off on a new adventure, in a new city. During the pandemic, still working from home, Chrissy was mostly a homebody. Rachel, new to the city with no connections, spent the nights searching through Bumble BFF to find new friends. Through twists of fate, the cosmos aligned, and the two found each other with one swipe. From then on, Chrissy and Rachel spent hours getting to know each other through the virtual world. For months, they wouldn't see each other, until one day, Chrissy would meet Rachel at the bus stop. At the corner of Market and Arch, they met for the first time. They exchanged exciting conversations over Oreo crepe cake (simply the best), and they were inseparable from then on. From game nights, to Reading Terminal Market runs, to Rittenhouse Park picnics, and Renaissance Fair days, the next two years were full of fun memories and love. The rest is history, and history is for lovers.
