As my previous post mentioned, I got married :)
Getting married during the Amsterdam Pride was a mind-altering experience for the both of us, it was that awesome!
I got to meet my in-laws. I couldn’t have wished for friendlier people, they are so amazing. Robyn’s father has mostly the same taste in foods, her brother is a mac-fanboi like me and they are all great people. I love them.
Also, something that made me really nervous was the introduction of Robyn to my family. My mom, dad and brother got to meet her only a week or so before the wedding, and it clicked instantly!
We went to Paris for our honeymoon. Just 4 days, but it was amazing! What a beautiful city. We’ve seen a lot too! We went to the Louvre, and I saw the Mona Lisa. This was a big thing for me, since it was on my life’s todo-list. Also, climbing the Eiffel tower was on there. And we ate there too! We also visited the Père Lachaise Cemetery, where we saw the grave of (among others) Jim Morrison and Oscar Wilde. Our hotel was just a 5-minute walk from there, so that was quite convenient. We also saw the Arc de Triomphe while walking down the Champs-Élysées, and we went to visit the Notre Dame.
Unfortunately, Robyn had to go back to Portland, OR to finish her law degree. We only got to spend 2 weeks together as a married couple, but she will be back next year, for good, and we will both live in the Netherlands. In the mean while, I will fly across the ocean a couple of times for holidays etc. and in the meanwhile there is Skype :)
I’d like to thank our friends and family who were there to support us. Thank you for believing in us, your support really means a lot.

Good luck dude! Skype is nice, but there’s nothing better than the real thing.
