Mabuhay! 

I am Yen, my husband is Bill. This trip is very special for both of us. He left his  Yacht in Tunisia the time he decided to come in the Philippines to meet and marry me. It was left there for over a year already. We were trying to save to go back as it needed a lot of repair after a long period of time of him being away. 
Before he met me, it was his first love. His dream was to document himself sailing through the route of El Cano, using a free carbon or electric powered Boat. A first in history, if ever. His priorities changed when he met me, but I know in his heart it was very heavy a burden letting go of his yacht, let alone leaving it behind. 
From his childhood, he grew up being with his Uncles in their Yachts until he was able to buy his own one during his time in London. 
He sacrificed a lot to be with me here in the Philippines, he saved and helped our little Family Farm. So most of our savings were used to develop the farm as a center of organic produce in the Community, and a Volunteer place for people all over the world who would want to exeperience and learn farming. The B & Y Farm. 

I want to help my husband save his Yacht, and this platform gave me hope. A hope that somehow I can do something for my husband even though it may not be a staright hardwork from me esp that I can hardly afford from my own pocket. 
I dont want him to lose his hobby or compromise it just to be with me.  I want him to be happy more than he makes me feel happy and have both me and his Yacht. I believe, everybody deserves to feel loved this way and be inspired of this story, his story of sacrifice. 

I want to inspire him about this initiative when time comes, I want to surprise him that we will go to Tunisia and save his Yacht. 

I want to inspire people to believe in the magic of love.

Thank you from the bottom o f my heart!
YEN
