You would expect the people who have a one-year marriage contract would have an equally nerdy plan to keep the daily romance in a relationship. And you would be right!

Earlier this year we navigated the purchase of a new home in a foreign country, published a book, renovated the new home, planned a 10-city book tour, and then began the long and complicated process to get a Spanish residency visa. It’s been a busy six months, and we knew if we didn’t do something about it our little disconnect could grow into something big.

It’s happened before, and we don’t want to go down that rocky road again.

We took an early morning stroll to the beautiful Parc du Cinquantenaire in Brussels, Belgium to share the method we use to reconnect with each other when life gets too busy and we start feeling a little disconnected from each other.
