Twenty-three days, four countries, and one adorable couple.
Brett Arnold, 30, and Amy Linville, 28, have been together eight years and love to travel. And when Arnold, a project manager, decided to propose to Linville, an instructional designer at a college, he went all out. Like ALL OUT, all out.

The day after his girlfriend graduated on Dec. 12, Arnold surprised her with a scavenger hunt around their Colorado neighborhood, Linville told BuzzFeed Life.
"My final clue on that day was to hike to the top of a mountain in our neighborhood; it happened to be a snowstorm with white-out conditions — perfect."

“When I reached the top there was a bag with a clue inside that said, ‘Pack your shit. You leave at 7am,’" she said.

Linville said she expected Arnold to jump out with a "Gotcha!" at any moment, but she arrived home to find her travel backpack waiting for her. In it was a one-way ticket to Tokyo, a Japan Rail Pass, and a map to a friend’s place for when she arrived.
Arnold told her she would be embarking on a world scavenger hunt for her graduation gift and Tokyo was the first stop.
"I STILL did not believe him," Linville said. "No way... I had work, Christmas parties, plans... what about my plans?! Later I would find out that he contacted my boss months ago to arrange it and had let everyone know that I would not be making any appearances at Christmas parties."
