Everybody in the think the center is also where you feel better for in there and i feel regulates the way national costume. Few. Years. Antonette has created a new life for herself. To be with her great love reagan eg kong she left the philippines and all she knew behind her for the last 5 years the Faroe Islands have been her new home. Coming from the tropics adjusting to life in the chilly north atlantic was a real culture shock. It rains 300. 00 days a year in the farrows. At the height of summer temperature reaches just 12 degrees celsius. And in the winter its only light for a few hours each day. I dont know how its the we dont know because the 1st time i am writing fire and i thought there are no going to be no ifs or going to beat us in the far right so i was just like going to grad thing that. I can borrow i learned i am thinking well how can i make friends they dont understand my and im ways i dont understand their language. Antonette and reagan 1st met on cyprus she was working in a hotel there and he was a guest on holiday for 2 years they wrote emails and phone one another then on to net talked up her courage and followed reagan to the pharaohs a year after they married their daughter was born. On tonights mother has come all the way from manila to the pharaohs to meet her 24th grandchild. The whole family is looking forward to the babys baptism but naturally shell be wearing the National Dress of the pharaohs. Fits right lets. Say hello. How are you jim. The baptism has proved a bit of a challenge for antonette theres one fair always custom she still struggles with yes she already had a name but the follow the through the fire while its the secret we are not allowed to. Thoroughly think anyone not. This but. The only allowed to say it when. We are ready to give her and him being the prince when you get pregnant youre already thinking of her name i do the same i was so annoyed because i can love you i feel like i can have her name. But antonette has resigned herself to waiting until the baptism. In the meantime she makes the most of the few hours of sunshine. Her husband rake in is a pharmacist. He spends most of his free time working on the house and torch on the capital of the fair islands. The 1st time reagan told her where he lived until it had absolutely no idea what to expect. Shed never even heard of the barrow islands. I dont fire i dont know if theyre fire or part of so i was thinking oh youre. Thinking of. All the stuff. But he said this part of denmark and i need to google. Denmark. And looking very sparse i love it kind of quiet. And then i go far i learn. Denmark at the end and i guess you know mark and i tried to go off there are away from demarco. And even farther away from antonette home city of manila. The capital of the philippines boasts some 13000000 residents barely 20000 live and her new hometown. The pharaohs comprise 18 islands made of fall cannick rock. Some pity 1000 people call this european outpost home. But living on an island surrounded by a unspoiled nature can get lonely at times. Especially for the men who far outnumber women on the faroes for years young women have been leaving the pharaohs to study and start a new life abroad the men left behind practice traditional professions and abide by traditional gender roles. At the port of tortious modern johana said sells his catch of the day. His father and grandfather were also fisherman its tough work for the guys but thats not what fair always women are looking for these days ya pay a toyota get down here high stick or pull you out the times of change well you knew him but its not you know when i was young it was totally different but i spend im good with spending today young women are mainly looking for excitement in the farrows doesnt have as much to offer them as Denmark Germany or france for example is Strong Enough ive got it here. More 10 son andreas is also a fisherman his generation in particular is affected by the shortage of women on the pharaohs andreas is single but many of his friends have partners from southeast asia. To the loss of a Mother Health often enough these days its easy to find a beautiful young woman like you sit down on the computer click enter and theyre right there on the floor and theres a big difference between welfare always on. With a filipino you go all around in circles loaded she cooks for leaves and does laundry for and loves them. While many fair always women are leaving the islands philippinas are arriving into taking their place. Bang lee thomas among them. She was one of the 1st filipino women to come to the very. First day i was told by a catalogue and. Bark and snow. Im like. So i been seen so much neighbor that time id been staying here for just the tribal war. But also for my. For 12 years bang lived her dream life she found love security and started a family. As the mother of 2 daughters she enjoyed her life on the remote pharaohs. But when she discovered her husband was cheating on her on able to accept this she worked up the courage to separate from him since then why it hasnt been easy to house it is so much memories today again i just stay in the house so i just go for a drive i like driving alone. Then i can be my life my locks now. If you were going to be soon. If you really knew not me. You. Bang wasnt prepared to give up the life she made for herself on the pharaohs. For you. But she refused to stay with her husband purely for financial reasons so shes found work to support herself and her children. By didnt regret anything maybe as some changes i would do it but i dont think that. If i could be then i would. I i dont maybe something you. Know i dont regret and its good that im satisfied right now no. Bank has only ever return to the philippines wants with her daughters kareena and johana thats because bank considers the pharaohs to be her home. She supports her parents in the philippines whenever she can. But never for a 2nd did she consider returning there after her separation. I missed my parents but i missed me i thought. I dont miss. I think im here with my children my. My children. By contrast and she knew when to troops and strong wanted nothing more than to leave the parents. Like many paralysed women of her generation she headed for denmark as soon as she finished school. After attending university in roskilde she landed a job in copenhagen. It was more exciting than life in the pharaohs. Thats why many young fairlies women never return. Though in loon has. Out just to save a life here can be very constraining compared to the big cities its completely different here. I just wanted to get away the leave it all behind me. That was the main reason why i left back there everything was just too small but after a time i realize that no matter where i go the life here will always be a part of me. And. So when she was 24. 00 inches low and decided to return. She was homesick and long to raise a family on the ferry. 3 years ago she and her fair always has been tied to or moved back. Not long afterwards their son when he was born. In june is striving to be an independent and emancipated woman in this traditional society. So certainly. In the past it was a huge problem that the women left and didnt come back. Back. But i think that things are slowly changing here that someone like me has returned to the islands in their mid twentys is actually quite unusual. With a mother. Now shes on a mission. Into the one aims to become a role model for a new generation of selfconfident very always women. Thats why shes running for parliament. She aims to make the pharaohs a place women no longer feel the need to run away from a place with opportunities equal opportunities freedom may have at the leverage that are not obvious at lunch or at. 32 after being away for so long it was really important for me to return to the pharaohs protonix floating i realized i can make a bigger difference here than i could in copenhagen or elsewhere. I come from here i know the place and i know how things work now i want to use that to change a few things on the islands there were back with spit on them off. Her goal is to become the 1st woman under the age of 38. 00 in the new parliament. She says its time to do away with old gender roles. Today shes taking to the streets of the capital to more shot to get her message out and you know when is the face of a new generation and a new era. You know was that she was was. The remote islands are starting to move with the times. This is a pharaoh pride parade held in torch on. Not long ago such an event would have been unheard of here for angelou and the parade is an important sign that mindset search changes. Yeah yeah yeah its a fabulous sign that so many people are here to show we dont want to go back to the last century we want the fairest to be an even more open and what kind of country and. Thats a great feeling its fantastic yeah. Colorful weir and modern. Angela once hopes for a more diverse future arent shared by all ferals people. That antoinette and reagans house things are more traditional bodog soak up the National Holidays just around the corner one onto a gnats where the traditional dress for the 1st time. Seems absolutely beautiful learning that ive always felt that i was women look better than the fairest man but especially the foreign women and seeing my wife wearing a little skull say. I think therefore fell in love or i got what i thought that for antonette the National Dress is more than just a garment. I feel so proud though where. Everybody. In the think its also where you so i think for in there i feel regulates the way. You feel included and this is n. P. R. A very. Very important time for me. Feeling you belong and are part of society. That was much tougher for the 1st filipinos who came to the pharaohs some 2 decades ago. I think. They are used now we. Were not anymore because we are a girl we. Are around 200 filipinas now live on the pharaohs. They form the Largest Group of newcomers. Many have also brought relatives or female friends to the islands. The Filipino Community here holds regular get togethers which are very important to antoinette. So. Sometimes its lonely not to have i believe you know. Although we are included. Will feel very. Good you feel home to be with some believe you know you hear their thought you knew it is the same for both you miss. Those kind of. The 3 nights to have a commune in the. Home of her girlfriends how pharaoh his partners. Today theyve come to meet and to thats new baby girl. I would love for you because i like the life of. The libyans i really feel safe for her to go out in the night time and i am not sure if she comes back a lot of those guys. Are there in the fire island she can go anywhere and. The war is still out even in the night because i know its very safe here. Its good. To raise if im in the. Meanwhile bank is raising her children on the pharaohs without relying on a mans help. Shes found work at a facility for children with disabilities today shes training a new colleague. Has worked hard to get where she is today. She studied to become a social educator at the university of the parent islands and was the only philippine a student and wrote there. Its very common for foreigners to work in. This society. But then i get my dream. Big dreams thats why i went to school study. After separating from her husband being knows that marrying a fairly is man doesnt necessarily guarantee a secure future. So shes learned to stand on her own 2 feet it helps that she didnt just have friends in the Filipino Community but also mixed with the locals you can love being integrated if you dont know the language its a child ends in a good thing for challenge because here i have to use the fairest language also in their id but they are very my colleagues. I think i mean we are just so quick. Theres a step. Forward im proud of where i am now. Its the evening before the farrelly is National Holiday bang has invited her colleagues to dinner they love the filipino dishes she prepares. The brain the food in there is so good and i think its so many where i think of. I feel like im in favor of beads its good that we are able to make to be more forward thinking before its so. Playing with this but now you could. Store hearing fire live on. After 12 years of marriage raising 2 children and separating from her husband bangs creating another life for herself and her many years on the pharaohs have made her into a woman knows exactly what she wants to stay no longer feels shes just another filipino on the pharaohs. Shes become truly fair always herself. I havent lived here for. I want to grow old. I was. On the internet and raking are getting ready for the National Holiday. A special delicacy is on the menu whale meat. And naturally enough arrows slicing it is a mans job. Even after spending 5 years in the pharaohs. That still finds some of the islands traditions hard to stomach. So there could. Be hope. And anton that still isnt entirely sure what they celebrate on the National Holiday. Theyre celebrating. There we think. King will say if you are way and this is that they will they will skip. So youre actually living right so you are celebrating when he was here yes this is that they won the night but he and i in the afterlife. Or not serco which means st olaf sway is the most important day of the year in the pharaohs everyone comes out to celebrate this National Holiday. Its been a fair always tradition since the 13th century. I. Come to you you come to all you owe you. And she was here to before she felt obliged to attend but since her return to the pharaohs shes glad to come as she sees how the islands are changing. Their day here did i ask you know just being here today is Something Special for me i came home specially for the National Holiday every clear and wish to take up the now that im heading here again its just different and it feels right i absolutely want to stay here.
