We treasure the captivating places we've been to, helpful people we met and the immaculately lovely apartment we called home during our 6 days stay in Melbourne

As we bade Au Revoir to this lovely city, the ten stalks of tulips symbolizing the ten years of togetherness have considerably bloomed. Thank you dearest Honey for being a great company, a mother of our lovely children and sticking around through thick and thin. We would also like to thank all discerning and supportive individuals representing our pillars of strength who had lent a hand toward making it possible.
