Hi, we are Nate and Lolo a couple that had to go through all that a long distance relationship has to offer, just like you.

Sometimes it can feel like too much...
Plus an unimaginable amount
of Skype calls and texts!
But one thing was certain, we had
doubt that we would be together in the end.
Of course during our LDR there were highs, lows and testing times that we had to navigate through together.
Once it came time to close the distance we had been through so much and knew we'd be able to help others that are experiencing similar situations.
If you're still reading you may be one of those couples facing testing situations. We're here to help!
