The pleasing waves at the shore, fresh air around the trees, calming moon at every peaceful night, summer breeze through the beach... Euphie Raine Diwa indeed love her own country-Philippines. Lahat ng mahal n'ya ay nasa Pilipinas, mag mula sa mapagmahal na magulang, kamag-anak, mga kaibigan, lugar, o pagkain man 'yan, lahat ay nasa iisang bansa lang. Marami mang may ayaw sa kan'ya dahil sa hindi maipagkakaila nitong tabas ng dila, she's still keeping her head up high because she knows herself better than anyone. Love is all around us, but then, if you find your love living thousands of miles away from you, will you sacrifice the solace life that you're living to fly across the seas, just to be with someone who's making you feel alive, loved, protected... makes you feel at home? Would you risk it? Everything can happen on the spur of the moment, and for Euphie? It was just one click, yet a Serendipitous Encounter happened.
