00:00 Traveled
00:02 Surfed
00:05 Fell in love
00:11 Serenity is a British national
00:13 She found her serenity on the beautiful island of Siargao
00:18 Who is the luckier one?
00:21 From England, Serenity traveled to Southeast Asia to rest
00:29 She didn't know that in Siargao, she was invited by Alan to her "The One"
00:36 Our countryman who is from Siargao, Melvin
00:42 But how did Alan bring them to each other?
00:47 I've always wanted to travel since I was like really young
00:51 I wanted to get out and explore the world and travel and see new cultures
00:56 Aside from her love for traveling, there's a reason why she wants to travel the world
01:01 I was doing 14 exams in the space of one month and it was really intense
01:06 At that time, the break up of a long term relationship I was in at the time
01:10 I knew I wanted to go away and travel and see the world and get some time to myself
01:15 To really like heal and move on and process everything that happened
01:19 That's why Serenity traveled to Southeast Asia to rest
01:25 She went to Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia
01:33 Until she arrived in the Philippines
01:36 And one thing that she was able to keep in her heart was the beautiful nature of Siargao
01:42 When I first visited here in April-May time last year, I just loved the island, I loved the vibe, the people
01:51 This is where she met Melvin, a surfing instructor
01:55 Before I met Serenity, I was a student, I applied for a job as a laborer, a harvester
02:12 But when Serenity saw the world, it was like it was colored
02:18 It was so beautiful, I felt like I was dreaming
02:23 That's when our relationship started, that's when we started to have a conversation
02:32 We talked for a long time at the beach, I was trying to get a feeling from her
02:41 But I wasn't able to show it to her
02:44 The next day, we surfed together, I was so excited, I was always excited to wake up
02:50 At first sight, it was like love at first sight
02:54 And every day that they surf together, they get closer
03:01 There was a little bit of feelings there, but we were mainly just friends, we just clicked really well, we got along really well
03:07 But their love story is a long time ago
03:11 Serenity traveled to Japan and Bangkok
03:16 When Serenity left and went to Japan, it was almost a week, I lost my strength
03:32 Obviously, me and Melvin ended up getting along way better than I thought
03:36 And these feelings developed way quicker than I thought
03:38 I miss what we did, especially her smiles and how she always smiles
03:52 After about a week and a half, he was messaging me, asking me how I was, what I was doing
03:56 The whole time I was in Japan, I was FaceTiming him every single day for like 4-5 hours a day
04:01 But their attraction is still strong in the midst of the waves
04:06 When Serenity pulled Melvin back
04:10 I didn't expect all this to happen, but when it did, I was like I can't leave now
04:15 We've fallen in love, I don't want to go back to England, I'm just going to stay here for as long as I can
04:20 When I'm around Melvin, I'm always smiling and laughing
04:25 I don't know, it's just like a warm feeling, I always just feel good energy
04:29 I'm like peace at peace, calm, relaxed, I just feel upbeat and I feel happy in myself
04:36 And I'm always smiling a lot
04:38 This second chance, Melvin didn't let it pass
04:43 So he moved on to Serenity
04:46 But because they're different in age, they did everything to understand each other
04:51 When you pronounce his language, like he said, can you pass the water
05:03 What? Water?
05:07 He's done laughing
05:09 What? What water?
05:13 He said, water
05:15 He's different
05:16 Water
05:18 I've been here 7 months and I can speak probably like 50 words or less
05:24 But I try, I do try and I'm trying to learn and I do always ask him like how do you say this, what does that mean
05:30 I love you
05:32 It's what you taught me how to say I love you in Tagalog, it's Tagalog isn't it?
05:37 It's Tagalog
05:38 They overcame all the obstacles
05:41 That's why they've been in a relationship for 6 months
05:46 Because he's funny, he's kind, he made me feel really special
05:51 Got along so well and like really clicked
05:55 But because they're different in age and looks, they didn't let it pass
06:06 In online, a lot of people commented that
06:09 Why did you choose him?
06:12 Because they thought I was just poor
06:16 But they're waiting for opinions from others
06:21 That's the agreement of their parents in their relationship
06:26 Especially Serenity's father from the UK, he flew to the Philippines to visit his son
06:33 They were like, you can love who you can love as long as you're happy
06:36 And he looks after you, like they did not mind at all
06:39 And I was actually quite like relieved about that
06:41 I was like, you're back to your roots
06:43 But I'll show you that I'm the first to be abandoned by your kids
06:47 Melvin, I promise to always support you and be there for you
06:51 And I promise to always love you
06:54 For Melvin and Serenity, their friendship is not just for the island of Siargao
07:01 Because wherever they go, Philippines or other countries
07:06 Their love will last forever
