Our long distance relationship journey as an Indian & American couple

We are Maeve and Kart – a long distance couple from America and India. We have outlasted 7,000 miles and two years of draining our phone batteries, to finally staying together permanently in the same country, you guessed it, India. Being in such a unique relationship, we've managed to take down the cultural barriers and misunderstandings, to create our own world of a beautiful blend of both cultures. Read our story about how we went from penpals to close online friends to eventually becoming the biggest long distance relationship story. Thanks for joining us!

Ram ram!

We’re Maeve & Kart – an introverted American girl with a love for letters, flowers, and chai on one side, and an introverted extrovert nature enthusiast Indian boy with a sweet tooth on the other.

Get yourself a cup of tea and a spoonful of chini and settle in.

We write for all aspiring travelers, folks in long distance and multicultural relationships, and those kindred spirits out there looking for advice on life in India as a foreigner.

As an American/Indian couple, we are currently living together in India in a cross cultural relationship as a result of one of few successful long distance love stories.

Come along with us as we share stories and advice on multicultural discussions, long distance relationships, and the beauty of travel.
