Our Story

How two cities became one home

2019

A misdelivered order

Anaya was handed the wrong coffee at a rain-soaked café in Toronto. Dev was two people behind her, holding hers. Neither of them left for three hours.

2021

Two cities, one calendar

Her residency moved to New Jersey, his studio stayed in Toronto. They learned the 7:10 AM flight by heart and turned Sunday phone calls into a small religion.

2024

The question

On a borrowed rooftop in Ahmedabad, with kites overhead and his grandmother's ring in his pocket, Dev asked. Anaya said yes before he finished the sentence.

2026

The seven steps

This November, surrounded by everyone who carried us here, we walk around the sacred fire and begin the rest of it together.
