We are Mary and Tim Vidra. 17 Apart symbolizes the age difference in our relationship. Though many thought it could never work (including us at some points), over the past 8 years we’ve kept bridging the gap, learning from & loving one another more each and everyday.

While we may be a generation apart, we find it’s those differences we once worried might break us apart that are actually the glue keeping us together and laughing at ourselves — or maybe it’s just our shared Hungarian heritage. Here on 17 Apart, we hope to share the things we’re passionate about, give a peek into our own version of what sustainable living means to us, and offer up a few surprises from time to time.
