Perhaps there is some truth to the adage that opposites attract.

After all, this is exactly what happened to our real-life heroes.

They were born and raised in opposite corners of the world: she in the far north, and he in the sweltering heat of Africa.

They might not have met at all. However, fate conspired to bring the young people together to study in the same place at the same time. It was in a typical college disco that the pair first met.

However, for them, the meeting ended in an unusual way. We could call it a real love at first sight, which quickly turned into a serious relationship.

Young people at first feared how their families would perceive their not-quite-ordinary chosen ones.

But fortunately, everything worked out for the best.

Seeing the sincere feelings of the lovers, the parents on both sides gave their blessing for the wedding.

Today, the couple is raising a lovely kid who has acquired her parents’ best qualities.

The girl is developing into a true exotic beauty, and her grandparents adore her.
