We met in high school, two teenagers who had no idea that a simple connection would grow into something so lasting. It started with quiet moments—shy smiles, inside jokes, and late night drives. Even then, there was something natural about the way we fit together, like two people who were always meant to find each other.

As the years went on, our love matured. We grew together through life’s milestones, supporting each other through exams, career dreams, and all the uncertainties of early adulthood. When Petra moved away to study nursing at UBCO, and Matteo stayed behind to work on his business degree, we held strong through the distance—proving that love rooted in friendship can withstand anything.

Together, we have explored the world—wandering through the quiet beauty of Japan, the vibrant corners of Southeast Asia, and collecting moments and memories along the way. Each trip, each step, each decision has been shared with the kinid of friendship that makes everything feel a little lighter.

Today, our love is both strong and soft—built on trust, shared dreams, and the quiet joy of choosing each other every day. And the best part? This is just the beginning. ❤️
