Open Question: Marrying a muslim guy.. please help?

I am a hindu, i don’t come from a religious family, my bf is muslim(malay).. I am training to be a vet, he likes dogs but cant touch them. and he told me it is possible for marriage between us without my converting as my career requires me to touch dogs. He says as long as he supports me it doesn’t matter. We are moving to New Zealand. How do i meet his parents? Do i have to kiss their hand, even if i am not muslim? Do u think it is possible to get married? His parents are fine with inter-racial marriages, but i don’t know how they might react to me being unable to convert. Also will living in New Zealand be hard for him? food etc? Thanks!We’ve been together for 4 yrs now, and i’m just about to meet the parents, the know we’ve been really close and spend a lot of time with each other but i’m not sure what they know about us. The hand-kissing thing is muslim a way to greet the elders. I love animals, especially dogs, and i dont ever want to not be able to touch them.
