It started with a great matchmaker: our friend Chloe. Chloe had known of Ryan through a friend and thought he'd be a good match for me (Taylor). She sent me photos of him, as one does nowadays, and I thought he was very cute, but didn't want a relationship at the time. A few months go by and I leave for Italy to do a 3 month butchery apprenticeship at a program called Spannocchia. I arrive and sit down at this table full of young, mostly American, people. This guy sits next to me and says something about his cousin having graduated from University of Arizona too, so I ask his cousin's name and he says, "Michael Muglia." I pause, overwhelmed by the room of people and ask his name: "Ryan Muglia." My heart drops as I actually look at his face. I run to the bathroom and text Chloe HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE GUY!!! We hit it off and I eventually told Ryan about the photos, which made him laugh. We went Florence that New Years with friends and drunkenly walking back to the hostel, we took photos in a corner photo booth. Little did we know we'd get engaged in that very spot 2 years later.
