I lived in Buenos Ayres but I traveled to Dublin where I met my fiancé Eveline. She was the love of my life and I asked her to sail on a ship back to Buenos Ayes where we would live our lives together. “Eveline sail with me so that we can get married and live our lives in Buenos Ayres.” I could tell that she was thinking on this heavily as she would have to leave her family for the first time in her life.
