So I fell in love with a Welsh boy...
« on: October 12, 2010, 05:04:20 AM »
Hi there :)

My name is Mimi, I'm 27 years old and I live in Oklahoma. My boyfriend lives in Wales. His friend married my best friend here in the States and that's how we met. We are getting engaged when he comes back to visit for Christmas and plan on getting hitched September 2011. I will be moving over to Wales at that point.

I am so excited but I have SO MANY questions and am glad that I have found this website!!

Totally looking forward to picking your brains, taking advantage of your knowledge and experience and getting to know y'all!

Welcome! As the wife of a welshman (living in England, not Wales), I can say you have an interesting future future ahead of you ;) Enjoy and best of luck.

Yeah, that's cool!  I've got a friend who has moved over here now to be with her man who is a Brit, but they live sort of far away.  Still, it is cool!  And welcome!

What part are you from?

Her husband moved over here to Oklahoma but they say they plan on moving back to Wales in 5 years or so. I'll believe it when I see it! My friend is pretty tied to Oklahoma.

I've never even been outside of the US. It's bound to be an adventure!

Grew up in Massachusetts.

mimibeth, where in MA did you grow up (just curious)?  I'm originally from MA (and currently still in Boston, but grew up just north of).
