Another team called me and were prepared to lay-on a private plane for me to go and sign for them.” It was love at first sight, and Ivan instantly fell in love with the Spanish beauty. At the time Ivan didn’t speak even one word of Spanish, and he had a hard time talking to Raquel.

"Week after week, I slowly started to learn some Spanish words, and if I was struggling, I would use my hands a lot to try to explain what I was trying to say to her. She thought that was funny.
