Continuing the love story stretching from the Amazon rainforest to Machu Picchu, then halfway around the world to Vietnam. “He” and she struggled quite a bit in their relationship because it was intense; the reasons were explained in an earlier article.
After dating for a while, the relationship needed consideration of a further step. But neither of us particularly wanted that yet. To make deciding easier, his favorite team, Liverpool, had just lost the first leg 0-3 to genius Messi’s Barca. All hope seemed over. So he made this heartfelt declaration: ‘Only if Liverpool gets past Barca, advances, and wins the championship will we live together for the rest of our lives.’ Otherwise, he would keep roaming freely.
In the second leg, Liverpool beat Barca… 4-0, an unimaginable score, winning 4-3 on aggregate. Then on 2-6, Liverpool defeated their final opponent to become Champions League champions. On 6-6, he and she publicly announced their marriage on… Facebook.
If that is what the Universe says, I will listen.
So the days of marrying because the doctor says you must are over. These days, you must marry because… the universe says you must :- )
For our wedding anniversary, I took her to Noir, where we dine in complete darkness, without a trace of light, like that pitch-black night in the Amazon forest. We may have seen it in films, but this is a first in Vietnam. I had the chance to train Noir's two owners in 1 social enterprise program 2 years ago. Finally I… had a wife to bring here. They have done very well. With their “Journey of the Senses” philosophy, many visitors may become fans.
