First Date - August 2020

Perfect first dates DO exist!  A chance (virtual) encounter soon led to a meet up IRL.  She impressed him with her knowledge of Georgian wine and astronomy, he with his dashing charm and quick wit.  Thank you Hinge!

Daredevil Date

He passed the test!  She reluctantly agreed to get on his motorbike yet felt surprisingly safe with her life in his hands .. little did she know this would be a ride of a lifetime!

First Away Weekend

Pulling out allll the stops ..  There was Matisse, Chagall and Storm King.  Coffee and wine, hiking and biking.  He introduced her to the beauty of the Catskills, just two weeks after they met.

Move-In Day

He generously cleared his closet and put away a few Rubik's cubes.

First Christmas Together
Alex met the "super six" (including Coco) as well as Alka, Pushpak, Ananya, and Zoya during her first ever visit to the UK.  A lockdown meant more time together to drink chai, bake, and of course play Among Us.
Meet The Parents

With a molecular biologist for a dad who hang glides for fun, and a mom who is the former director of International Education Services at UMBC, Rishabh knew to be on his best behavior on the trip down to visit Alex's family.  But "meet the parents" jitters quickly dissipated as the Odenwalds warmly welcomed Rishabh into their beautiful home in Maryland.

Road Tripping - Final Frontier

Riding dirty along the Dalton Highway includes: pit stops at trucker camps, reindeer jerky, moose x-ing, and midnight Sun. 

She Said Yes! June 2021

Engaged!  On the most EPIC Alaskan adventure north of the Arctic Circle.  The setting was America's most remote wilderness park.  The ride, a plane complete with a landing on the lake.  The icing on the cake was being able to keep it a total surprise from her!
