Meet Rob and Joli Switzer.

Rob is from the United States and Joli is from the Philippines.

They first met in 2010 in Cebu City, in the Philippines.

They stayed in touch from there, eventually forming a long distance relationship.

As they literally lived on the other side of the planet they had to arrange locations to meet each other every few months.

As you can probably tell by now, they like to perform the same pose whenever they reconnect and share it on Instagram.

They've been doing this for two years now and their inspiring pictures have seen them become Internet stars.

Their joint account, Dipkiss Travel now has over 5,000 followers and their pictures never disappoint.

Their travels have now taken them to Dubai, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Russia and of course America and The Philippines.

Speaking to BuzzFeedRob and Joli explained the idea behind the series:

Everyone was taking jump shots and signature travel poses, so we thought about creating our own cute romantic pose just for kicks.

On a whim, we decided that the 'dipkiss' should be it.

It was one of the only ways for us to meet each other when we were apart.

And we both loved to travel as a hobby anyway so it worked well for us.

Rob and Joli have since got married, with Rob proposing in the Red Square in Moscow.

While their pictures and story are truly wonderful it goes to show that no matter where you are on Earth, it shouldn't prevent you from being with the person you love.

The couple add:

We just love seeing couples who beat the odds and prove that stories like these are possible.
