hi welcome here...
what is your mission for ?

[missionforlove]

...I enjoy dropping in on this site! As for Pumpkin's question, what is my mission for ? My mission for love is to continue to better understand the love of my life. She is full of life, and is always looking (and finding) things that make here smile and laugh. I will always do my best to keep a smile on her face, and I will always do my best to understand the way she thinks.

That is sweet. I remember the song " I want to grow old with you ".

My mate lives here in UK, but if your referring to my girl, yes I travelled to Philippines to meet her, I am sure most did, however, there are some lucky enough to meet their girl here in UK.

I knew your 'BIG ADVENTURE' must be looming ... and I'm pleased you've made THIS post, because it provides me with the opportunity of wishing you all the very best. As I said in a previous thread, you've got yourself a good lady there, so make the most of your time together.

Have a safe trip & Enjoy the experience of a lifetime!

Canada is a great place,your lucky to live there,Vancouver is fantastic,I would move there in a finger-snap given the opportunity Wonderful country wonderful people

[Jamesey]

I first started e-mailing my future wife when we were both in England, but we actually met for the first time in Manila (while we were both on holiday).

Then we properly got together back in England!

[MarBell379]

I met my girl in Israel, but have travelled to Philippines to see her twice this year since she moved back there.

[missionforlove]

Sounds like quite the adventure! best of luck, and take care

[Arthur Little]

Well I certainly DID ... TWICE ... all 7-8,000 miles of it! To meet my SOULmate! The first time [September 2008] I flew from Manchester Airport to Singapore - en route to Davao City via Cebu. And the second [November 2008] from Heathrow to Singapore and onto Davao, stopping off at Cebu, once again.

So, all in all, taking the two round trips into account, plus a further couple of return journeys from Davao to Manila (i) to lodge my CNI and (ii) for submission of my wife's Spouse Visa, I must've clocked up a grand total of at least 30,000 air-miles (equivalent to nearly three times round the world in as many months ). All in the name of ! But well-worth it, to be with my mahal (who's been by my side in the UK since March)!

[scott&ligaya]

Like I have said before I met my future wife in Hong Kong when she ran past me going uphill on a mountain marathon. The sight of her lycra clad bottom kept me pushing on up the ascent!!
