Our Story
We met back in 2018 at university and quickly became close friends. After graduating in 2022, life took us on different paths, but a year later we reconnected and started dating.
Less than two years after that, we got married and moved to Dubai when Hande got a job offer here. Since then, we’ve been figuring out expat life together. Sometimes smoothly, sometimes chaotically and sharing what it’s really like to live in this city as a couple.
