Thank you for this beautifully written piece. I am all for romance and this window into yours and J's is brief but palpable. I hope you return to your favorite spot soon and more synchronicities abound.
Thank you Rachel! The more I’m able to stay in the spirit of the place (even if I’m not there), the more I find synchronicities abound. I hope you’ve been able to experience and cherish magical moments like these 🥰
That was so lovely to read. You've made me miss a place I've never been to, and now all I want is to go to a simple yet romantic escapade with my partner. I'm glad I discovered your writing today 😊
The lover-girl in me loved this so much. Thank you for sharing this picture of your love story.
One of my favourite chance encounters was how I met one of my best friends. I had just moved to Amsterdam and was staying in a hotel whilst looking for somewhere to stay. A couple of weeks earlier a friend of mine dropped me into a IG group chat with her and J - a girl who lived in Amsterdam.
That first weekend after moving, J sent me a random text message to ask how I was getting on. I updated her on my apartment hunt struggles, trying not to sound as desperate as I actually was. Immediately, J offered to let me come and stay with her until I found somewhere to stay. I was sceptical at first. Yes we had a mutal friend but I didn't know her and staying in her family home felt too personal considering I didn't know exactly when I would be able to move into my new apartment. But I was in a season of taking leaps of faith... so I said yes and was en route to her house the next day..
Fast forward to today, J is one of the best friends I have in my life. Turns out, being that impulsive isn't natural to either of us, but for some reason we were in that moment and we've been inseperable for nearly 4 years.
I replied to this below by mistake rather than to your comment Kezia, but I love this!! Thank you so much for sharing, what a beautiful story. Friendships are some of the greatest love stories and I’m so glad you’ve both found each other 💛
