Long distance is not for the weak…but when we’re really connected to and love someone, we find ways to make it work.

If you’re new to my story I’ve been doing a long-distance overseas relationship for almost a year! My bf and I met on a Christmas vacation in Germany last year, we both felt an instant connection and we’ve been working hard to push through until we can see each other again. {You can learn more about our story on TikTok}!

My personal favorite virtual date is T for travel planning…we’re always looking ahead for when we can see each other next <3
