Monogamous.
I'm interested in monogamous.
I got married last May
and had my honeymoon is Stykkishólmur.
This year I returned to Stykkishólmur
to live with my husband
for three months in one small room.
This extreme monogamy
proved almost too much for us.
Rather than murder each other
we rented a second place
(Greta's house)
near the pool.
Now we are happily duogamous.
