      HOUSTON

      My name is Fleur. I know, it’s a bit of a weird name.

      It means “flower” in French, because my mother wanted me to blossom.

      Julian is the name of my love.

      We live together, eat together, sleep together, and work together.

      Julian is a woman. Just like me.

      One day I went down on one knee and asked Julian to marry me.

      Getting married is a big step in life.

      “Yes!” she said. “I want to spend the rest of my life with you. And you’re going to look amazing in a wedding dress!”

      Julian and I found out that getting married was not going to be easy.

      In most countries, a man cannot marry a man and a woman cannot marry a woman.

      There are 195 countries in the world, but we could only get married in 28 of them. We thought this was unfair.

      “Would you like to marry me in all 28 countries?” asked Julian. I said, “Yes!”

      And so our adventure began.
