"Loukia and I met on an island in the Aegean Sea called #Andros, Greece – we were both there on vacation. She was walking into a bar and I was walking out of it. When our eyes met, it was as if time stopped and the world stood still. I walked up to her and said "Hi", and she replied a simple "Hi" back. We were both stuck in the moment. We ended up speaking a bit more and then decided to exchange numbers hoping to meet the following day. She was on vacation with her best friend, so we all made plans to get dinner at an oceanside restaurant. In the middle of the night, I truly felt that she was the one (crazy!). While dancing with her later in the evening, I looked at her and whispered in her ear that I was going to marry her one day. She hugged me and kissed me, and started to cry. Turns out I was right..." 🙀 Video link in profile to see the proposal! If you couldn't guess, it's sort of unreal and crazy romantic 💕Photo and video by @studiophosart
