Job: Lutheran pastor
Spouse2: Catherine Angèle Laurent
Hair: blond wavy
Eyes: hazel
Job: Key account manager
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Anders and Catherine have been married for a year. Anders is of Norwegian, Finnish and Russian origin and decided to dedicate his life to spreading the Lutheran faith. That's how he met Catherine, a beautiful young girl from France. It was a love on first sight and they got married after a short relationship. Catherine has a degree in business and is putting it to a very good use. Coming from different countries they landed together in Brazil, mostly due to Anders' job, but Catherine did not lose any time and found herself a job as a key account manager for one of the international companies in Rio de Janeiro.
Anders (25) & Catherine (27) in Rio de Janeiro.
Year 1
Anders and Catherine are both very religious and helping others is very high on their list of priorities. Therefore it came as no surprise when two years into their marriage they decided to adopt, from Haiti. They adopted three brothers who are aged 12, 10 and 7. The boys are settling in beautifully in their new country with new parents.
Gerardson "Gary" Clément Nylund (12)
- brown eyes & black curly hair
Viter "Vito" Guillaume Nylund (10)
- brown eyes & black curly hair
Nerlens "Lance" Pierre Nylund (7)

Anders (26) & Catherine (28), Gary (12), Vito (10) & Lance (7) in Rio de Janeiro.
Year 2
Anders and Catherine welcomed a baby girl! Lance and Vito were excited to became big brothers, while Gary took the news with his typical teenage attitude, but he dots on his little sister whenever he thinks no one can see him. The blond wavy haired and green eyed baby girl has been named Stella Johanna Nylund.
Anders (27) & Catherine (29), Gary (13), Vito (11), Lance (8) & Stella (nb) in Rio de Janeiro.
Year 3
Catherine has lost her job! With all the time off she had to take due to the new baby and the boys settling in after adoption it came as no surprise. For the time being she decided to stay at home with her kids and not look for another job.

Eliora and Sebastian are newlyweds, living in Tel Aviv, Israel. Eliora is an aspiring novelist who pays the bills by writing articles for a local newspaper. She's Jewish, the daughter of Jewish Russian immigrants to Israel in the 90s, and is fluent in Russian and Hebrew. She met Seb, then a medical student from Scotland, now a fully-fledged doctor, 3 years ago, just after she was discharged from her time in the IDF.

Spouse1: Lorna Ianthe MacFarland [Irish/Scottish]
Hair: curly, red hair
Eyes: blue eyes
Job: Primary School Teacher
Spouse2: Quinton Urien Hanley [Welsh/English]
Hair: straight, auburn hair
Eyes: green eyes
Job: Carpenter
Location: Nepal
[Although with both Irish and Scottish heritage, Lorna grew up in England. From the age of 12 she knew she wanted to be a teacher and work with children but it wasn't until she was 20 that we realised she also wanted to see the world just as much.
Quin was raised in Wales by his local dad and English mum. He actually wanted to be an actor from a very young age but got into woodwork in his early 20s and started pursuing it as a career.
The pair met when Quin came to England for a weekend to celebrate his cousin's 21st birthday and Lorna was at the party. The pair hit it off. Although he went back to Wales they kept in touch and after meeting a few more times embarked on a long distance relationship. Just a few short months later, Lorna announced she wanted to see the world, she'd got a job with an organisation teaching disadvantaged kids in Nepal. Quin decided to follow her, putting his building skills to good work by helping expand the school and build homes.
We join them as they mark their 2 years in Nepal.]
***
Yr1: With 2 years under their belt in Nepal, Lorna and Quin decide it's time to move on to pastures new - they did want to see the world, after all. Lorna gets a job in a South African International School and, being highly skilled in a transferable skill, Quin easily manages to follow, finding a job within days of landing in the new country.
"Lorna (24) and Quin (26) in South Africa."
Yr2: Quin's boss turned out to be a pig! So with his head held high, he tells the man where to shove his job and for the meantime the young couple live off Lorna's teaching wage.
"Lorna (25) and Quin (27) in South Africa."
Yr3: Lorna and Quin attend an important sponsor event at the International School and after some unintended schmoozing, Quin bags himself a contract to commission some unique pieces of artwork for the new reception.
