HELLO CREATURES ! how are ya.

Allow me to introduce you to 2 amazing people that a lot of you already know.. Wouter & Ulli. I asked them both a bunch of questions and their answers are below.. (spoiler: this couple is particularly special because THEY FIRST MET HERE ON THE SECRET DEMO CLUB!) AHHHHH! 😍

Where are you from?
Wouter: The Netherlands
Ulli: Austria

Favourite food?
W: gosh...I think I would be saddest if there were no more spaghetti in this world. but Italian in general!
U: Sushi

If you could have any superpower what would it be?
W: I would love to be able to show people all points of view in an argument. the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy contains a point of view gun..
U: Omnilingualism - the power to understand every language.

HOW DID YOU GUYS MEET?

Wouter:

The first hangout that Ulli attended, she was super nervous (as most people are) and had some difficulty joining as well. The second time was already better. She was visiting her parents, and joined from living room with a laptop borrowed from her sister because her own refused to work.
After a small introduction round and the hangout, Orla said her goodbye and left the hangout. I did not immediately leave, but instead chatted a bit to some fellow patrons, one of which was Ulli. I also remember we had Alex joining by chat only, typing to the both of us.

After the hangout, I typed Ulli a message that I very much enjoyed talking to her, and that I would also be happy to help her diagnose her computer issue. We exchanged phone numbers and started chatting.

During the spring of 2017, we had a meetup with some patron friends where we ended up in Amsterdam, Paris and London. this group decided to meet again in Paris just before Christmas, and I thought it would be cool to include Ulli, because she had previously told me that she really wanted to travel a bit and see Paris. The group also thought this was a great Idea, so we traveled to Paris.

During this visit, we had plenty of times to chat! I spent a lot of time chatting to Ulli, and we became good friends. Ulli and me also stayed a bit longer in Paris because my train was in the evening and Ulli was still there for another day. After Paris, we all went home and continued our lives. Ulli told me that she felt really good when with me, and I felt the same. We had noticed this in Paris already, but did not think much of it at that time.
Cheesy as it sounds, we actually sat together on a bench in front of the Eiffel tower when I first felt attracted to her.

We really wanted to keep in touch and see each other more often, so when New Years came around, we ended up Skyping the whole night and that’s how it all started. We wanted to be a couple, and wanted to see each other more. We planned a trip to the Netherlands for Ulli and one for me to go to Austria. We’ve been on Skype almost every day since, have visited each other, got introduced to the parents, and are a couple now ;)

We will see each other soon, traveling to Dublin to see Orla, and we have MAD summer plans!

..AND BACK TO ORLA.

AHHHH, these two make me melt, amazing. I hope you enjoyed hearing more about them & you’ll no doubt see the two of them lots more in the comments and in the hangouts, maybe even at gigs! So. Cool.

All my love for a new week
