Our Story: From Chance Encounter to True Love.
Our journey began in the most unexpected way during the height of the Covid pandemic. It was a random encounter, one neither of us could have predicted, but from that moment, we knew we had found something special. Despite the world feeling uncertain, we’ve never regretted it and have been building our love story ever since.
One of the things that’s always brought us closer is our shared love of travel. Whether we’re exploring far-off destinations or discovering hidden gems closer to home, we always find joy in experiencing the world together. Algarve was our first holiday together and at the end of it since we didn't kill each other we realized we can do this for life. That's why we are bringing you back to where it all started.
Korbi has been the biggest influence on Trudie when it comes to hiking and cycling. Before him, she never thought she’d enjoy those activities, but now we spend countless hours on trails, cycling through scenic paths, and challenging each other to go further. Not only that, but Korbi has even helped Trudie fight her fear of water, overcoming hydrophobia and learning how to swim! It’s been an incredible journey of growth, trust, and pushing boundaries, and she’s never been more grateful.
When Korbi met Trudie his world expanded in ways he never expected, including his taste buds. Korbi has since fallen in love with the vibrant flavors and colorful spices that Trudie brings to every meal. From ugali with sukuma wiki to chapati with some ndengu he’s learned to appreciate bold herbs, exotic produce, and plant-forward dishes he never knew he’d enjoy. Trudie is now on a mission to help Korbi find his rhythm, especially when it comes to dancing. Of course, there’s still some work to do. But no matter how off-beat we may be, we know we’re in this together, supporting and encouraging each other every step of the way.
Now, as we stand on the edge of a new chapter, we couldn’t be more excited to celebrate the life we’ve built with you. From the accidental meeting to the adventures we’ve had and the challenges we’ve faced, we know that the best is still ahead of us.
