Eternal love...

Gustavo and Julie have been married for 35 years – twice. They first met in New York, when Gustavo was a
student there. They fell in love and got married almost immediately. After one year, they got divorced. “We
got married too quickly, too early,” says Gustavo. Julie agrees: “We were both too young,” she says.

After they got divorced, Gustavo went back to La Paz, his hometown in Bolivia and married someone else.
Gustavo and his Bolivian wife had three children. Julie started her career, and although she had a
relationship with someone, she didn’t get married.

Ten years went by, and then one day, Julie found Gustavo on the Internet and contacted him. They met
again when Julie went to Bolivia on a business trip. They found they were still in love with each other, after
all those years. Julie was single now, but Gustavo was still married. Gustavo decided to get divorced and
then married Julie – again.

They don’t have children together, but now they live in a beautiful village in the countryside outside La Paz.
They’ve lived there for nearly twenty years.
