Lyubov met her future husband, Alexey, while working at one of Moscow's most prestigious companies. She immediately began envisioning a picture-perfect life—and for a while, it seemed to come true. After their wedding, the newlyweds, now the Vilyanskys, embarked on a honeymoon to New Zealand. Dreaming of oceans and a life under sail, they made plans for a fresh start.
But life had other ideas. By a twist of fate, they found themselves on a small island in the middle of the Rybinsk Reservoir—and fell deeply in love with the place. Trading their high-paying jobs and city comforts for a modest country house, Alexey and Lyubov defied their parents’ expectations to build a life far from the chaos and societal norms of urban living.
Through the challenges of adapting to this new reality, the couple discovered a profound truth: they found their authentic selves and learned to appreciate and unconditionally love each other.
