Connect How did your love story begin?

Our love story began at a local dive bar. I joined some friends that were hanging out there and by some string of luck, his sister had convinced him to get out of the house and partake in the night’s adventures. I thought he was cute and an hour or so went by and we began a team game of pool, my team playing against his. We stroke up a conversation and what started as light-hearted banter turned into skinny dipping by the SC pier. From our first encounter, I knew he was something special.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

If I had to pick, it would be our first time camping near Joshua Tree. We put up a fire, talked and ran around for the night until bedtime. This was his truck bed, no pillows or blankets, and roaring winds of the desert. Safe to say there was little to no sleep being had. The next morning we packed up for another adventure finding frogs and hiking. Then he snuck me into his parent's desert house where we made dinner, danced, drank, and watched movies until we passed out on the couch together. ❤️

What would you do with $20,000?

This $20,000 would fund many more camping trip adventures, concerts, and a fund for our future together. I would be able to take him to visit my family in Kauai, go on our trip to Alaska we have always wanted to go on, and maybe even a boat to get to go on fishing adventures together. I would be able to start my dream garden in our backyard. We could pursue our hobbies without fear of paying our rent on time. It would help two fun loving mid-twenty year old adults live more freely.
