One day something amazing happened in my life. I met my boyfriend, my inspiration, my husband:)
But our happiness did not last long… When we found out that he was HIV positive, everything became very difficult for us. The difficulty of being gay was always there in abundance. The fact that he was a foreigner made it very difficult for us. He left. He moved abroad, far away. The nights were cold then.
After he moved away, I started doing live broadcasts, talking about norms, stress reduction, homophobia/transphobia. It made me happy to do something, even if it was small, for the 2SLGBTI+ world.
Despite all the difficulties and troubles, November 14, 2024 was one of the happiest days of my life. My dreams came true and I married my boyfriend, the man I spent a thousand nights in his arms. A deep and challenging love.
We dream a lot about living a peaceful life together. I call him my koala because he always falls asleep when I hug him.
I hope living together and happy with him. I hope to adopt a cat and safely live with my husband in a peaceful little house.
Being with you was as refreshing as the smell of the rain scented earth.
Without you, neither the sound of the rain nor the smell of the earth.
Love
