"Love is accepting the person for who they are"
DANIEL BAUER and TYRONE BRAGANZA BAUER married in Germany in 2019, and are raising their daughter together
TYRONE: "We first met at a club in 2013. We came with different sets of friends and were drinking and enjoying the music, but we kept looking at each other. We managed to speak with each other at the bar while buying drinks and started texting each other after that. Our relationship remained between us. We spent evenings having dinner and wine nights, watching movies, taking long walks, etc. We did not define our relationship, but we knew we had a special bond. I realised pretty soon into our relationship that I wanted this to work out. I found Daniel to be kind and loving. He always knew how to make me feel better when I was down. That was the realisation that I wanted him to be the one. Marriage was a big step.
And, although we talked about it, we did not tell family and friends until we had fixed a date. Daniel asked me to ask his family for their blessings. When they came to see me on the cruise ship, I was intimidated, but I asked his parents if they would let me be part of their family. Daniel asked my mum for her blessings, too. Soon, we told family and friends over texts, calls and some through social media. On July 6, 2019, we got married in a church in Germany. We had an Indian ceremony for all our family and friends who could not come. We followed all the Vedic rituals except the kanyadaan, which did not apply to us.
The exchanging of vows at our Christian wedding was something we treasured and was significant in keeping our relationship going. Our relationship has gotten stronger with time. We have a daughter we love dearly. For us, every day is an expression of commitment."

The Green Thread
At the start of 2025, it only feels right to try and take a step in the direction of an issue that needs immediate addressing - fashion's problem with unsustainable business practices and their impact not only on the environment, but also on the people making the products. All's not grim, however. Even within this space, some brands have cut through the greenwashing noise and stand out for complete transparency in their businesses. We speak to the founders of four such fashion brands who have prioritised a slow approach to making clothes and have an overall ethical outlook. They care for environmental and social impact as much as - if not more than their profit margins, finds Ashwini Arun Kumar
