Things to expect during Joey Graziadei's season of The Bachelor:

• kissing on the beach;
• kissing in front of a group of strangers screaming at you;
• kissing while clutching the same tennis racquet;
• kissing atop historical landmarks that truly never asked for this;
• crying next to some uncomfortable palm fronds;
• crying stoically atop a rocky outcrop;
• staring mournfully at the ground while sitting all alone on a park bench;
• cameras trained on your face while you weep;
• being slapped in the face repeatedly by a hot dog;
• And more!

Point is, Joey's season looks like everything we could possibly want from reality TV, and the time has come to get to know his contestants. Specifically Rachel Nance, mostly because spoilers tell us that she [REDACTED]. (Keep reading for all the information we know about Rachel, including details on how far she makes it, because honestly? This show is more fun if you know what chaos you're getting into. Consider it a coping mechanism.)

Rachel Is From Hawaii

Which is extremely convenient since that's where Joey currently lives and—as we all know due to ABC reminding us every five seconds—teaches tennis. Meaning if Rachel and Joey end up together, they won't have to go through a long-distance relationship or an inevitable post-Bachelor breakup when neither of them wants to move.

Per ABC, "Rachel is immensely proud of her Hawaiian roots and hopes to bond over her love of Hawaiian food and culture with Joey."

She Works as an ICU Nurse

And while Rachel has "worked hard to achieve her professional goals," ABC says "she’s ready to find someone with whom to enjoy the journey of life."

Oh, and when she’s not working at the hospital, Rachel loves watching Friends, reading Jane Austen, and "spending time with her loved ones."

She's Excited to Have Kids

Rachel comes from a "big, tight-knit family and is really excited to start a family of her own." So she and Joey are likely going to be having some deep conversations about their future together!

Rachel Knows Exactly What She Wants in a Relationship

It's pretty simple, really: "Rachel is looking for an honest, gentle and supportive man with whom she can build a life."

As for Rachel's ABC "Fun Facts" (which are always a journey), apparently she is "terrified of frogs," which undoubtedly means she will be going on some sort of frog-themed date organized by the producers on this show.

Rachel Makes It to Joey's Final Three

According to Reality Steve's spoilers, Rachel gets eliminated after (or during, TBD) overnight dates, leaving Kelsey Anderson and Daisy Kent as Joey's finalists.

No word on what went wrong between Rachel and Joey, but the fact that she makes it to the final three definitely puts her up there as a potential choice for ABC's next Bachelorette. Though obviously, we won't find out any info about that until Joey's season ends. (The Bachelorette is usually announced during After the Final Rose.)
