The year it all started
We met at a house party in Belfast. Linnea initially thought Olle was Norwegian. We had a long conversation and Linnea was drinking generous amounts of Gin Tonics while Olle was sober. At some point there were only the two of us left on the balcony; Olle was too nervous to give Linnea a kiss under the stars. Apparently this was the best moment for a first kiss. But he got one anyway when Linnea kissed him goodbye after we exchanged phone numbers. Linnea was working at a recruitment company with the wonderful colleagues Samir, Simon and Amine. They were our first mutual friends in Belfast. Olle was working at Citibank, where he met Szabi. They instantly clicked and became very good friends. The first time Szabi met Linnea was at a Eurovision party. He really saw Linnea in her prime. The picture to the left is from our first holiday together (Malaga) 🇪🇸. It was very quickly understood by both of us that travelling was our passion. Who knew that we would do so many trips together after this one? The second trip we did together was to Budapest 🇭🇺, where we visited Linnea’s brother Nils and his now wife Leo. This was the first time Olle met Nils and Leo. It was a freezing cold winter, -10 every day. Nils took us around on a city tour and to a double Michelin-starred restaurant, and paid for the whole bill. Olle was impressed.
