How We Met

When Samantha & Andrew first met, they were both living near Hilton Head Island, SC but it took a night out across state lines for them to find each other. In April 2018, Samantha and her girlfriends planned a fun night out in Savannah, GA to celebrate her roommate Jennifer’s birthday. The group’s friend Alex offered to be their designated driver and take them. When Alex showed up that night ready to go though, he didn’t show up alone. Alex’s friend Andrew had decided to join them on their trip. That was the day that Samantha found out that if there’s fun to be had or an adventure to partake in, Andrew’s going to place himself right in the center of it. Samantha hadn’t even gotten into the car before Andrew asked Alex who she was. He spent the rest of the ride asking her questions, curious about why they’d never met. The island is pretty small anyway, but when Andrew mentioned he’d been getting his hair cut for years at the same salon where Samantha works, they couldn’t believe their paths never crossed. Maybe sparks were flying... maybe Samantha knew she could get him to be her client, but after an hour in the car she decided she enjoyed talking and laughing with Andrew. Once they arrived in Savannah, she decided she even liked him enough to buy him a drink. When she ordered him a bourbon and found herself drinking one too (despite she doesn’t even like whiskey!), she knew that this was something special. For Andrew, already impressed with Samantha from the moment he saw her, this small gesture sealed the deal. Not only did she guess his absolute favorite drink, she even shared a glass with him. Who was this woman? He knew he had to see her again, even if he had to get an extra haircut to do it. Luckily for him, Samantha felt the same about him that night. They’ve been laughing, talking, and adventuring together ever since. Now, almost three years later, they’re excited to invite you on their next journey. Join them at the start of their biggest adventure yet!
