We met on a Sunday morning in a little seaside bookstore. Both of us reached for the same travel guide to Iceland, and when our hands touched, we laughed — that kind of laugh that feels like you already know the other person somehow.

After that, everything unfolded naturally. We started talking, then meeting for coffee, then walking by the water almost every evening. We both loved slow days, quiet places, and the comfort of being around someone who doesn’t need many words.

When we got engaged, it wasn’t a grand gesture — just the two of us at home, with dinner in the oven and music playing softly in the background. It felt simple, real, and exactly right.
