how we met


We met in 2013 while we were both based in Singapore. After a period of casual dating (Vanessa's viewpoint !) our relationship started to bloom after the Christmas Holidays (once Vanessa had accepted Paul's quirkiness!) to a point where we became inseparable. Spending the majority of our free time together we enjoy couch surfing after work, getting out and about and catching up with friends at the weekend and have recently been on a road trip around Western Australia and lazing on the beach in Phuket, Thailand.
