    We’re Allie and Sam, a same-sex couple who has been together for nearly a decade and our story starts on a dating app, like any modern love story.

    We started sharing our life online as a way to keep our families updated on our adventures around the globe together, but it quickly became a way to share much-needed queer representation; to showcase that a happy, full life is possible as an out and proud LGBTQ+ person.

    We have been blessed with an amazing, engaged online community over our more than six years of sharing our lives on the internet. We have also done public speaking engagements about various LGBTQ+ issues in schools, for non-profits, and for major brands. We live in Nova Scotia.
