Our love story
It’s 2014, and we find ourselves in the sun-soaked paradise of Lanzarote, where Kurosh, our windsurfing aficionado, is living his best life, or so he thought, riding the waves and embracing the island vibes like it’s nobody’s business.
And we’ve got Gaby, a city slicker with a taste for adventure, kickstarting her professional career in Madrid and frequenting the island of Tenerife, a place she felt like home. Fast forward to June 2021, Gaby decided to trade in the hustle and bustle of Madrid for the laid-back charm of island living. Armed with her laptop and a decent wine collection, she was ready to dive headfirst into this new chapter of her life.
Meanwhile, Kurosh was still chasing wind and waves all around the world. But also, he was yearning to set some roots. Now, cue the cosmic orchestra, because fate decides to play matchmaker. Through the wonders of modern technology, Kurosh and Gaby’s paths cross in the digital realm of online dating. Sparks fly, but life’s busy schedule and their preference for a more independent lifestyle kept them from sealing the deal. But wait, it gets better!
Turns out, Kurosh’s house hunt leads him right to Gaby’s neighborhood, and he buys the house in front of hers. Destiny grinned mischievously, laying the groundwork for their eventual reunion. The final act commenced on a fateful night: Kurosh’s 40th birthday bash.
In a moment that can only be described as legend – wait for it – dary, fuelled by liquid courage and the gentle nudging of friends, Gaby and Kurosh share a kiss that sends shockwaves through the party. It’s official: they’ve found each other! And thus, their grand adventure began, a symphony of laughter, love, and serendipity.
For in the end, love is not merely a destination but a journey—a journey that finds its truest expression in the shared joy, trust, and warmth of home found in each other’s arms. And so, dear friends, let’s celebrate Gabriela and Kurosh, as they embark on the greatest adventure of all—love.
