We matched on Hinge in the Fall of 2020, yep, during the pandemic. Alicia was living in El Segundo and working remotely, Jit was living in San Diego and working in Mexico. How we matched with over 100 miles separating us remains a mystery only the app's software engineers know. A few weeks of us talking back-and-forth goes by, and we find out Jit's going to be in LA for work, so we meet for dinner, enjoy conversation, and finalize plans for our second date on a boat in Newport Harbor. Life is blissful! Fast forward to March 2023 when we ventured to Santa Barbara for Alicia's early birthday, and Jit proposes... on a boat! We've been hand-in-hand traveling to Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico City, Japan, India and Brazil, moving Jit to LA, and settling in South Bay with Nala. While we're celebrating with our family and friends on Saturday, October 19, our Indian wedding ceremony will take place on our fourth anniversary: October 21, 2024. We look forward to sharing our joy with our family and friends on this auspicious occasion! Xx Alicia & Jit
