The Proposal
Our proposal started back when Claudio planned a surprise trip to Germany, Stuttgart for my birthday. We had been dropped off at the airport by my dad; I had no idea where we were going until Claudio gave me an envelope with our tickets in it. I knew our friend who we had met in Australia lived in Stuttgart and I was so happy that we were going to see her. But, Claudio said he hadn’t spoken to her and she didn’t live in Stuttgart anymore. I messaged her asking and at the same time, Claudio has messaged her to say don’t say you live in Stuttgart as that was a surprise for me!The morning of the proposal, Claudio said he had to pop out to collect a key from our Airbnb owner. Little did I know he was going to meet our friend Franzi and surprise me! There were so many surprises that I didn’t expect a proposal at all. Over the last year, every time Claudio and I had been away, my friends would say he was going to propose but every time I would return with no ring on my finger!
