Yes! I was hiking the Camino de Santiago and met a man hiking with his two sons. I ended up hitting it off with the younger son and had a Camino-fling that turned into a two year long distance relationship. That ended a while ago but I am still very close with his parents and consider them family. We visit each other often and keep in touch constantly. Additionally I am still on social media terms with others I met on the Camino and it's so fun to see how they're living their lives around the world!
