Until

Hi teachers,

Please check this:
I used to be alone until one day I suddenly bumped into an old friend.

Is this fine? Do I need 'when' after 'one day'?

TY,
Gus

Thanks. Would it be better to write:

This way can we avoid when?

Thanks again.

It's OK, but not better. How about this?

I used to be alone but I suddenly bumped into an old friend one day and we got together.
