We found each other again after 32 years. We dated when I was 17 and he 21, broke up because we were young. Got a 2nd chance in our 50’s.
Help us share our love story in Variety, take home $20,000, and go on a triple date with Jeff & Emilie Goldblum and Charlie Day & Mary Elizabeth Ellis!
Our story begun when I was 17 and Valdir was 21 and we were young and in love, but our lives were different and we went our separate ways. After 32 years the minute we saw each other again on my 50th Birthday party in Brazil we just knew we were meant for each other. We don’t understand but immediately our hearts were connected. Went through a lot during the immigration process but we did it. And here we are with our memories from 32 years ago and now. We love telling our story to others.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?We have a lot of favorite memories. We can’t pick out just one we love traveling around United States and getting to know new places it’s our favorite thing to do. But of course the one favorite day was our wedding day in Galveston, May 24, 2019.
What would you do with $20,000?We are probably going to rent an RV and continue our journey and making new wonderful memories. Our favorite thing to do is explore in the nature of this beautiful country.
