The nomadic lifestyle of many World Food Programme staff worldwide can be really challenging for couples.

Nicole Menage, the World Food Programme's Country Director of Nepal, has travelled far working for WFP. "I've lost track of how many times I’ve packed up my life, choking back emotions as good friends and the families I’ve helped are left behind," she says.

She met Carlo in Malawi, but soon after was transferred to Togo. Fortunately for them, Carlo decided to follow his heart and her to Togo. 20 years later, they have two children and live in Kathmandu where they do their part to help fight hunger.

This Valentine’s Day, Nicole is thankful for Carlo, "the man who has supported me every day for 23 years."

Who are you thankful for? Join Nicole and others kissing away hunger by putting a photo of someone you love on the Wall Against Hunger – and then send them an interactive Valentine’s Day card!
