A very special friendship

Most of you have probably read my posts on my America adventure, part of this cities adventure was Dallas. Now, I had a lot of people asking „Why are you going to Dallas?“ Two answers: Dallas Stars and more importantly: My second momma Wendy/Aven.

I met Wendy online around January 2014 I think, when I won her first book Connectivity in a giveaway. She sent me the book and I read it within 24 hours. I loved it so much. After that we started talking regularly and exchange emails as well. She published her second book Waiting For Prince Harry and we discovered our mutual love for hockey. Well, we grew very close, very quickly. The emails became more personal and we developed a very deep friendship.

I’m able to tell Wendy everything and she is always there for me. We have the same interests and it’s just a lot of fun all the time. After a while she asked me to be one of her Beta Readers, which is fab. I love her books and her writing so much.

Wendy is one of those people, who are really close to me, close than friends that I see regularly in Switzerland.

                                                  

We also started talking on What’s App and the daily exchanges with her are just fab. We are so similar and I just love how she is always there for me, also when I’m going through something difficult.

So, last year I decided to visit her in 2016. I decided to add two other cities to my trip as well, so last December I booked it all: New York – Dallas – Chicago.

I arrived in Dallas after seven days in New York and there she was at the airport picking me up! I was so excited!!!! We hugged and started talking immediately. It was like meeting an old friend.

We had so much fun together, talking and enjoying hockey, shopping and so much more. We literally had some „Like mother – like daughter moments“ and I’m just so happy, that I have finally met Wendy in person. It was amazing and we had so much to talk about. I loved seeing her lifestyle, seeing where she lives, getting to know her family and more.

Meeting her in person, spending time with her just showed me even more, what an amazing friend she is and I definitely plan on going back to Dallas and seeing her again.

I’m so grateful for my time in Dallas with her. Thanks Wendy for EVERYTHING!!! LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
