In a heartwarming tale of love that transcended borders, Mindy, a flight attendant from Chicago, USA, has landed in Pakistan to marry her online soulmate Sajid Zeb Khan, a resident of Usheri Dara, Upper Dir in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The couple’s journey began two years ago when they connected on Facebook. Over time, their digital friendship blossomed into a serious relationship — so much so that Mindy proposed to Sajid herself. Sajid proudly accepted, and both informed their families about the cross-continental union.
Upon her arrival at Islamabad International Airport, Sajid greeted his bride-to-be and the couple travelled together to his hometown. Locals in Upper Dir gave Mindy a warm traditional welcome, celebrating the couple’s love story.
“I’m here for Sajid Khan,” Mindy shared in a video message from Dir. “It’s my first time in Pakistan — such a beautiful, peaceful country. I feel very happy and excited to be here.”
Sajid added that they would tie the knot on Tuesday, with a nikah ceremony in accordance with Islamic customs and local traditions. He also stated that the couple did not require any security, as they were simply here to celebrate their love and commitment.
Their unique love story has already captured the hearts of many across social media, proving that sometimes, true love really does fly high — even across oceans.
