As fate would have it, I boarded a flight from LAX to DUS on My future husband's birthday, November 1, 2007 to move to Germany as an Au Pair. On St. Patrick's day 2008, I went to an Irish pub in the Altstadt, and met my husband. We got married in a civil service on October 8, 2010, and can't wait to get his visa so we can move out of dreary Duesseldorf and settle down in Sunny SoCal.
