“I was working as a bartender at the time and had just gotten off work. I decided to drive through Downtown Fredrick, which was a terrible idea considering it was midnight on a Thursday.

“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 cour…”— The Way We Met, instagram.com

Afte…”— The Way We Met, instagram.com
“I spent years trying to find a guy I was compatible with. I wasted so much time on people I knew I didn't have a future with.

Apparently…”— The Way We Met, instagram.com

“We met on the freeway! Yes, you read that correctly and no, I'm not making this up. 25 years ago I was driving on the 5 freeway in Santa Clarita when I saw a beautiful woman driving a yellow jeep with the top down.

“Being a dog owner is a great way to meet people. It's funny how these unconditionally loving, voiceless animals have the ability to bring people together.

“I was a singer in a band called All Ends. He was an artist and a biker who just moved to Gothenburg to be closer to his motorcycle club.
