"Hometowns," Victoria captioned the post, along with a red heart emoji.
Victoria's pictures included a romantic dinner date, her beloved dog Buxton, Christmas decor, and a stroll through what appears to be a Christmas village.
Greg, a New Jersey native currently living in New York, wrote in the comments section of Victoria's post, "Turning her into a jersey girl next."
Late last month, Greg spent some time in Nashville, TN, where Victoria currently has a home.
"I love you," Victoria wrote alongside the sweet images of the pair kissing and smiling.
Greg commented on Victoria's slideshow, "STFU and kiss me."
Greg and Victoria met at Governors Ball Music Festival in Summer 2021 and remained friends for nearly a year.
The couple told Nick Viall earlier this month on his "The Viall Files" podcast that they had mutual interest in each other but never acted on those feelings, especially since Victoria wanted to appear on Bachelor in Paradise in June 2022 and Greg was in a relationship with a woman overseas at that point.
Victoria therefore looked for love on Paradise, and she fell hard and fast for Johnny DePhillipo. She and Johnny got engaged on Bachelor in Paradise's eighth season, but the couple split shortly after filming the finale.

Johnny also said Victoria demanded a lifestyle he wasn't ready for yet and their differences were glaring.
According to Victoria, she and Johnny ended their engagement three weeks after Johnny's marriage proposal because their dynamic was "toxic."
But Johnny believes his relationship with Victoria didn't officially end until mid-September considering they were allegedly still speaking and going to therapy before Victoria's surprising European getaway with Greg in late October.
Because of how quickly Victoria moved on from Johnny, she was accused of cheating on her then-fiance.
Victoria and Greg flirted on social media as reports swirled about Victoria and Johnny's split.
Victoria said that Greg asked her to be his girlfriend, officially, on Halloween, and then Victoria went public with her new relationship on November 4, when the reunion special taped.
Bachelor in Paradise's reunion aired in late November, and fans were shocked to see Victoria and Greg so affectionate and carefree about their romance. They've also seemingly been inseparable ever since.

Greg plans to move to Nashville to be with Victoria, but before then, she'll be meeting his mother, sister, brother, nieces and nephews at Christmas.
On his podcast, Nick playfully asked Greg if he's ready to propose marriage to Victoria.
"Stay tuned!" Victoria teased.
"I mean, we both want that in life," Greg interjected, "she's my person."
Victoria agreed that Greg is her "person" as well, and then Greg added, "I haven't felt -- I don't want to say 'content,' that's not the right word because it sounds boring. But I think therce's a certain beauty with being content with someone."
Greg said he could just sit in a room with Victoria for days on end and they wouldn't get sick of each other.
"We're growing day by day, and I see it going that route," Greg gushed. "I want that and I know that that's important to her, and I want to be able to take that step with her."
Victoria was clearly getting choked up and she said, "I'm going to cry."
