It all started with a Tube ride and a twist of fate.

An American on a business trip met an Albanian on the Jubilee Line at Stratford Station—and in that instant, two worlds collided and our crazy journey began. From two years of long-distance between Austin and London, to 4.5 years of building a life together in Stratford (where Twix, our fur-child, joined the family), and now settling into our first owned home in Eltham—we’ve grown and overcome every challenge together. We’re so proud of the life we’ve created together and beyond excited to begin this new chapter surrounded by those we love most.
