Our story begins in 2013. We were both working at a nursing home in Bergen. We first saw each other occasionally in the hallways and we both took noticed of the other one.
One day Ulrikke was going to be the doctor on the ward where Thomas was working. After we finished the ward round, we started talking a bit more privately ( flirted?).
On the 1. of September Thomas started writing to Ulrikke on facebook messenger. This lead to the first date.
And yada yada yada suddenly we were a couple and Thomas moved in with Ulrikke on the 1. of April 2014.
One day after work, Thomas proposed to Ulrikke on a mountain site overlooking Bergen City. Ulrikke said yes!!!
We share a lot of common interests as the love for being outdoors, traveling and our passion for our cabin.
In 2017 our first child, Irmelin was born and in 2020 our son Marvin saw the light of day.
We can’t wait to celebrate our love and history with you all in August!
