His & Her Travelings
His & Her's Relationship
We have been together 'officially' for coming up to three years now, but we first linked up as an item back in 2011 as two innocent sixteen-year-olds. We attended the same school on the Gold Coast, which meant we have known each other since we were little six-year-olds. However, although we dated on and off, we could never fully commit to our relationship throughout high school and it wasn't until we returned from our respective gap years, that we finally stuck with each other for good.
Since then, we have gone through our young adult years side-by-side as we begin a life together. Through our decisions to travel abroad, switch to a vegan diet and move into a place of our own, we have grown and learnt a great deal from each other. It is helped that as people, we are like-minded individuals who are as equally strong-willed, yet easy going and caring for each other, leading us to enjoy a constructive and very loving relationship.
