I am South African. Vaidas is Lithuanian. Both of our journeys brought us to Seoul, South Korea. His friend approached me and told me he'd give me 3 tries to guess where Vaidas was from. If I guessed within the 3 tries, Vaidas would buy me a drink and if not, I would have to buy him a drink. Of course, I lost miserably and ended up buying him a Jäger bomb- classy, I know. We chatted for about 10 minutes and then I left, leaving him with just my first name. The next day I found a Facebook message from him. Dinner turned into a movie which turned into drinks which turned into a long walk outside. It was a 5PM to 3AM date. We were engaged in Macau a year later and married 3 months after that. I love my husband so much. In 5 years, there hasn't been a single day that he hasn't told me how much he loves me. I would chose his gypsy soul in every lifetime.
