Our Story
Two paths, one grove
Every couple has a version of this story. Ours happens to involve a bookshop, a cat, and rather a lot of Tuscan wine. Here's how we got from there to here.
1. We met
A rain-soaked evening in a bookshop neither of us can name. Julian was lost in the poetry aisle; Aria was hiding from the rain.
2. We knew
Three apartments and one very opinionated cat later, on a trip to Tuscany, somewhere between the wine and the sunset.
3. He asked
Same hills, same light, a ring instead of a rain cloud. She said yes before he finished the sentence.
"We didn't fall in love. We grew into it, slowly, like an olive grove finding its roots."
