Our Story

Archie and Lhea’s Story

Our story began in June 2025, when Archie and Lhea first met for coffee at the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf in Manila. What started as a simple conversation quickly turned into a meaningful connection. Soon after, Archie met Lhea’s daughter, Emy — and together, the three became the heart of a beautiful, growing family.

As our relationship deepened through shared adventures, laughter, and dreams, we launched our YouTube channel, Our Piece of Heaven Bohol, to document our everyday life and the journey of building our forever home in Bohol.

Inspired by our experience, we founded Expatina Love — more than just a brand, it’s a global movement created to honor the unique connection between expats and Filipinas. Our mission is to offer valuable resources, share real stories, and build a supportive international community of couples who believe in love without borders.

From that first coffee date to planning our dream home in Bohol in 2026, our journey is a celebration of love, family, and building a beautiful future together.
