Elad was bounced from one relative's home to another's from the time he was thirteen years old. His mother had died in a car accident, and his father had abandoned him. The only person he felt truly cared for him during these years of troubles was his best friend, Talia. Talia had the picturesque childhood, up until she turned seventeen and her parents divorced. Then, she was forced to choose between her mother and her father, and (knowing her siblings would go with their mother) she decided to stay with her father. She has yet to talk to her mother since, although her siblings talk to her every once in a while. Elad and Talia had known each other for years before they realized their romantic feelings for one another. They had always been best friends, but only once high school rolled around, they admitted to each other what they had felt since the beginning of middle school, love. The two lovebirds married after college.
Carlos was born in Spain. At the age of eleven, he and his mother moved to New York City. No one was nice to him during his first years in the country because his English was not great and he did not have a father. Cate was born in London to a wealthy CEO and his young trophy wife. She grew up in the lap of luxury, with nannies, maids, chefs, chauffeurs, and anything and everything she could have ever asked for. When it was time for Cate to go to college, she decided to attend Columbia University, in NYC, where her American father had studied before moving to the UK. At CU Cate fell in love with a young medical student who was putting himself through college. She and Carlos have been together ever since, and married after college.
Carlos and Elad met at a medical conference in Elad and Talia's hometown of Haifa, Israel. The two became fast friends and soon after the conference met up with their wives in the Big Apple. Cate and Talia immediately clicked, and soon the foursome were as thick as thieves. After spending a few weeks together, Elad mentioned a crazy idea he had always had; living in a nomadic fashion (after all, there were so many beautiful places that a person who lived in one city all their life never got to see). Carlos and Cate were entranced by the idea, and soon the Rodriguezes and the Shafirs decided that they could, together, make this lifestyle work. After all, they would always have their love and best friends with them, so it ought to be perfect, right? The financials were also in place, thanks to Cate's parents (who thought the idea was silly, but were willing to pay any amount to keep their daughter happy).
