How They Met
Virginie and Vansh first crossed paths in French classes, where a friendship quietly took root. Though life took them in different directions, they stayed connected through Facebook and eventually found themselves reunited while working at the same hospital. As the world slowed down during the lockdown years, they spent more time together, discovering a deeper connection that extended far beyond friendship.
