Adapting for Love
Josh is also a proud owner of two rescue dogs, one of which he renamed for Claudia. The dog's original name, Smudge, was difficult for her to pronounce in Spanish. He explained:
“My girlfriend is from Madrid, and she couldn't really say Smudge — it's a hard word to pronounce in Spanish. We looked up that Mancha is the Spanish for a smudge, and so Manchi became the cute Spanish version.”
The couple’s enduring relationship highlights their effort and commitment despite the challenges posed by distance and busy schedules.
