The beauty of slowing down and sharing the sunset taken in Pointe-Claire Village by @r_gillelan

During our travels from the South Pacific Islands to the High Desert of California, we happily promised our hearts to each other.

After celebrating magic family wedding in Mo'orea and Tahiti, Chantal and I headed to Southern California for a week of catching up with family and friends.

Under the pretense of a sunset hike in Joshua Tree National Park, I took Chantal up to High Vista on September 4th. As the sun dipped behind the San Bernardino Mountains on the other side of the valley, I asked Chantal to be my wife and life partner —and she said YES! 💍✨

We are so happy to share that we are engaged! Here’s to a lifetime of adventures together. 🌅🌵 ❤️‍🔥

A special thank you Elisabeth and Marc for introducing us, we feel truly blessed.

J’ai le plaisir de vouloir partager avec vous les tous derniers merveilleux évènements de la vie….

Après avoir célébré un mariage familial magique à Tahiti et Moorea, Robert et moi sommes partis dans le sud de la Californie pour une semaine de retrouvailles avec sa famille et des amis.

Sous prétexte d’une randonnée au coucher du soleil dans le parc national de Joshua Tree, le 4 septembre dernier, Robert m’a emmené tout haut de la montagne à High Vista. Alors que le soleil disparaissait derrière les montagnes de San Bernardino, de l’autre côté de la vallée… Je me suis retourné, pour retrouver Robert mes côtés, sur un genou !

C’est alors à ma grande surprise qu’il m’a fait la plus belle demande. Soit de devenir sa femme et sa partenaire de vie — après des larmes de pure émotion je me suis empressé de dire OUI ! 💍✨

Suite à notre voyage, des îles du Pacifique Sud jusqu’au désert de haute altitude de Californie, nous nous sommes promis avec bonheur l’un à l’autre à une vis entière d’aventure partagées.

Nous sommes si heureux de vous annoncer que nous sommes fiancés !

Un mot de grande reconnaissance à Elisabeth (Babette) et Mark pour nous avoir présenté l’un a l’autre il y plus de deux ans ! taken in Black Rock Trail Joshua Tree by @r_gillelan

Here we are above all the lights of LA. Outside the crickets are chirping and the Sugar pine is dropping sap all over the car. Thank God it's a rental... taken in Rimforest, California by @r_gillelan
