Three years ago i was able to marry this amazing woman! Unfortunately our wedding got hit by the start of the pandemic. And instead we got married inside our car in a tiny parking lot in LA. Finally after years of being together we were able to have a small get together and have our families meet for the first time!
Thank you so much for always supporting me and all the incredible adventures we have experienced so far. I can't wait for what is ahead of us, knowing that you'll by my side! 🥰

I will always remember you!
This weekend was pretty rough for me as we had to say goodbye to our family dog Biene. She's been part of our family for sixteen years now and it's incredibly sad to see her go.
I still remember the first day i carried her into my parents place and seeing my mom's shocking realization when I told her that this is her dog now. From that day on Biene brought so much joy and energy into every day and i will cherish every moment i got to spend with her.
She's been a part of major parts of my life.
And the thought of her not being there anymore feels very surreal.
Going Home was just as much about seeing Biene as it is was about seeing my parents.
Not being able to be there during her last days and not having seen her for two years due to the pandemic really makes me sad and I am scared of visiting again and seeing the change. Not being waken up at night cause she wants to sleep at the end of my bed or being waken up in the morning by her jumping on my bed and licking me across the face, because she wants to go for a walk.
I will miss this dog so much it's undescribable and it's breaks my heart knowing that she's gone. Sososo many good memories. I will miss you forever!
Probably the thing is miss most about living in LA are the seasons.
