Finally in 1891 Marie with very little money to live on went to Paris to realise her dream at the Sorbonne. In spite of her difficult living conditions she worked extremely hard. She earned a degree in Physics with flying colours and went on to take another degree in Mathematics. She met Pierre Curie in the school of Physics in 1894 and a year later they got married.
