Peak romantic experience he/she is constantly trying to recreate: Not so much recreate because they are still fairly fres, but definitely keep remembering regular, would have to be when he proposed to Ali and then when they got married.
Bedrooms: He moved in with Ali, who had at the time recently moved into an apartment she inherited off a friend. Since then, they have put their marks on the place, all bedrooms are nicely decorated with big comfy beds and lots of pillows.
