暖心小故事③

Sarah and Patrick Grace, both 25, met while standing in line at a museum in Florence:

薩拉和帕特里克·格蕾絲都是25歲，在佛羅倫薩的一個(gè)博物館排隊(duì)時(shí)遇到的：

She's from: St. Louis

她來(lái)自：圣路易斯

He's from: Little Rock, Arkansas

他來(lái)自：阿肯色州的小石城

Relationship status: Married

關(guān)系現(xiàn)狀：已婚

"After I graduated college, I backpacked through Europe with a friend for six weeks. While we were standing in line at the Galleria dell'Accademia museum in Florence, Italy, we started talking to four boys our age who were also American. One of the boys, Patrick, caught my attention. He was charming and had the biggest blue eyes. We met up with the boys again a couple days later in Cinque Terre to go hiking, during which Patrick and I talked and sang Disney songs. That night, we sipped Chianti while watching the sun set over the Bay of Riomaggiore. I was bummed when we said goodbye, because I was certain it wouldn't work past that point.

“我大學(xué)畢業(yè)后，和朋友背上背包去歐洲旅行了6周。在意大利佛羅倫薩學(xué)院美術(shù)館排隊(duì)時(shí)，我們開(kāi)始跟四個(gè)與我們年齡相仿的男孩聊天，他們也是美國(guó)人，其中一個(gè)叫帕特里克的男孩引起了我的注意，他很迷人，藍(lán)色的眼睛大大的。過(guò)了幾天去五漁村徒步時(shí)又遇到了這幾個(gè)男孩，其間帕特里克和我聊天、唱迪士尼的歌。那天晚上我們喝著基安蒂紅葡萄酒，在Riomaggiore海灣看日落。分開(kāi)時(shí)我很郁悶，因?yàn)槲掖_定過(guò)了那一刻就沒(méi)那種感覺(jué)了。

I was wrong. We kept in touch through Facebook, and eventually started texting and calling each other. We lived ten hours apart, but we decided to try dating long distance. After a couple months, a career opportunity made it possible for me to move to his city. Getting to date in person was a blast, and after 14 months, we got engaged — and now we're married. It's crazy to remember how this all started. And now I have a travel buddy for life!"

我想錯(cuò)了，我們一直在臉書(shū)上保持聯(lián)系，后來(lái)開(kāi)始發(fā)短信打電話。我們相隔10個(gè)小時(shí)路程，但我們決定先試試異地戀。幾個(gè)月后一次工作上的機(jī)會(huì)讓我搬到了他的城市，真正面對(duì)面的約會(huì)真棒。14個(gè)月后，我們訂婚了——現(xiàn)在我們結(jié)婚了。回想這一切真的感覺(jué)很瘋狂，現(xiàn)在一輩子都有人陪我旅行了！”
