Our Story

Our Story

Take one psychology student who once swore she’d never own a racing bike, add one geeky engineer with far too many degrees, and drop them on a blind date in a VLI-VLI Leuven cantus (a party organized by Leonie's sorority).


Fast-forward seven years:

- Their very first evening ended with a tipsy kiss on the cheek, accompanied by more beer than strictly advisable.


- With a little help from his friends, Max finally took the first steps toward asking Leonie on a date.


- Two months later, they were already trekking through the Alps, where a “maybe” quickly turned into love.


- After four months, Max decided to travel through South America, thus Leonie booked a trip to Peru after knowing him for only half a year and skipped 2 weeks of university.


- They spent so much time together that she practically moved into his coloc room.


- Schaerbeek became their home, completed with cozy dinner parties on their green terrace.


- Max has taken Leonie on countless hikes and cycling adventures, and even coached her through her first marathons.


- Leonie now owns a better racing bike than Max (and reminds him of it often).


- Along the way, she taught Max the art of actually following a cooking recipe. While he introduced her to the mysteries of “Machine Learning” and “Structural Health Monitoring".


She loves art, music, and brings creativity and sensitivity. He is analytical, sportive, and overly energetic. Together, they complement each other ♡.


Between one travel and the next, they realized: this was worth forever.


Now they dream of a life,

and one day, a family,

built side by side.
