DH (23): Alexey Ivanovich Paskov "Alex" (straight auburn hair, hazel eyes)
DW (20): Thea Marianne Ingeborg (Dahl) Paskov (curly blonde hair, green eyes)
Location: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Alex was born in Tyumen, Russia as an only child. His family moved first to Paris when he was five and following his mother's death ten years ago he and his father moved Brazil. Despite his young age Alex works in finance as a hedge funds analyst. Thea was born in Göteborg, Sweden as the youngest of three, she had a pretty uneventful childhood and after graduating high school she decided to spend a year in Brazil, doing some volunteering work in Rio de Janeiro's infamous slums. She met Alex about two months later in a night club in Rio and the couple has been inseparable since. After her gap year was over, instead of returning to Sweden and going to University as she planned to, Thea decided to stay and works full time for a local charity. The couple got married few weeks ago after not even two years of relationship.
Year 1
Although Thea enjoyed working for the charity in terrain, she was excited when she got an offer to move to a hospital that is owned by it. She works there as an receptionist and is also responsible for a lot of paperwork. She loves her new job, even if it means more hours at work.
Year 2
What seemed like an amazing job at first got overwhelming rather fast. With the hours and overtimes becoming unbearable Thea decided to quit her job. The family is living just of Alex's pay, which isn't that bad.
Year 3
Although money was never an issue as the months passed Alex got irritated that Thea showed no interest in finding another job or go to school, enjoying her carefree life. This led to many arguments between the couple, until one day Alex just moved out from their bedroom and has been sleeping in the guestroom for three weeks before Thea admitted that he was right and finally started looking for a new job.
Year 4
It took her six more months, but this year Thea finally opened her own vegan restaurant. Alex was skeptical at first, but seeing how much effort Thea put into it, he hopes that she had finally found her calling.
