I strongly believe in following your heart, wherever that may take you. And as our world becomes even more interconnected, cross-country relationships become more of a reality.

My first love was an Italian working in Madrid but living in Mexico City. I followed him to Mexico.

My brother is married to a Canadian who he met studying in Denmark. They now live in Sweden.

Three Virgin Group airlines – Virgin America, Virgin Atlantic and Virgin Australia – produced Departure Date, a half-hour short about falling in love in the air.

I found it very touching and hope you enjoy it too.
