Our Love Story

It all began in Athens when they were just 12. Despina was the new girl—new to the city, new to the school—and Tryfon, for reasons he still can’t explain, decided to welcome her with… a bit of bullying.

What started off on the wrong foot somehow turned into a fun and unforgettable friendship, filled with laughter, inside jokes, and the kind of bond only two mischievous teenagers can share.

But life had other plans. At 16, Despina moved back to Thessaloniki, and just like that, they lost touch. For years, they lived separate lives—until one day, at 19, a book sparked a message. And that message turned into endless conversations, shared dreams, and a connection that never faded again.

From long-distance struggles to countless plane rides, from time zones apart to time spent counting down the days, love kept finding its way back. Eventually, both of them landed in the UK—this time not just in the same country, but in the same life.

Now, after everything, they’re not just a team—they’re home to each other. And they can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter with you by their side.
