How we met!

We met on Hinge. She send me a rose, and I immediately liked her smile. I told her I was from the midwest, and she told me she was from the Deep South (as in Brazil). Her sense of humor was what brought us closer. On our second date, she left her water bottle at the summit of an overlook hike. I drove back the next morning by myself and hiked back up at sunrise to retrieve the bottle. She later told me that was the reason she continued to see me. Our love continued to grow from there! — Kenny

What we love

We both love camping and National Parks. Whenever we get overwhelmed with work and people, we drive off road with our overloading set up, find dispersed camping spots without anyone around, and enjoy the quiet and night skies.

The Proposal

We were off roading and camping through Utah and Wyoming with a group of friends, and I knew I wanted to propose on this trip.

Although there were so many beautiful spots along the way, I really wanted it to be an intimate moment for just Bel and I. In Idaho, we parted ways with the group and drove back to California on our own, making a stop in St. George, Utah.

It was extremely hot, and after camping for almost a week straight, we both wanted to stay in a hotel for the night with air conditioning.

However, I told Bel that I didn’t want to spend the last day of our epic camping trip in a hotel room without seeing one last sunset. I found this overlook just as the sun was setting behind the gorgeous red rock, and I knew it was the perfect spot.

Since I’m always filming things with my camera, Bel had no idea this set up would be any different from the others. When I got down on one knee, she was in complete shock!

A hiker had passed by moments before I proposed, and when he circled back down the trail, Bel held up her ring finger prominently in the air, exclaiming “HE PROPOSED!” The hiker congratulated us
