We both moved to Chicago in the summer of 2018, but it would take 4 years before our paths would cross. One date quickly turned into 4 dates in 4 days! After dating for almost 2 years, an off hand comment Nathan made on the first date became reality and he was packing his bags to move to Switzerland for two years. After multiple trips to Switzerland, a trip to Madrid and return trip to Chicago, we got engaged in Paris in the spring of 2025.
