I randomly chose his village to do my field work for my undergrad thesis. I didn't know anybody there, so I sat in the park, this girl came by and picked me up, brought me to her house for lunch, and she and her mother moved me into the house next door. Because they had a bit more money than the family I was staying with, and had a more stable home, I ate at their house every day and bathed in their bucket from water heated on their stove. he was the youngest son in the family, and for weeks would show up everywhere I was, take me swimming, talk to me for hours, and flirt with me. I thought it'd just be a very hush-hush fling (doing research and sleeping with one of your subjects is a no-no!) but after I finished my thesis, I moved to Mexico and he moved from his village to live with me.

He's from Nicaragua but we met while I was a missionary living in El Salvador and he was studying to be a missionary. I worked in the missions clinic & I fell in love with him when he came in for a vitamin shot :wub:
