An adoring boyfriend literally went to the ends of the world to give his girlfriend the best birthday present.
In
December last year, filmmaker Jackson Harries' girlfriend Ella Denton
'jokingly' challenged him to get from the UK to Sydney for her 19th
birthday, during a Skype conversation.
Jackson
was up for the adventure and filmed his 28-hour trip to give Ella, 19,
who had been travelling for three months with three more to go, a
surprise birthday to remember. Continue reading to watch video below...
Making his way to his UK departure airport, Jackson decided surprising his girlfriend was too good an opportunity to miss
The couple: Jackson shared a photo of Ella on his Instagram account to more than 1.6 million followers in May
Jackson explained on Jacksgap.com that with the help of Ella’s best friend, he organised to travel out and see his girlfriend on her birthday.
The
five-and-a-half minute video starts with the couple's emotional Skype
conversation, in which Ella tells Jackson how much she misses him.
'I
miss you. I can't come home, I want to, but I don't. Is that selfish?'
Ella said in the filmed Skype chat. Jackson then tells his girlfriend
that he will come to her then.
Ella then suggests the pair make a film and instructs Jackson on the details of the challenge to get to Sydney.
His 28-hour journey started with a 10-hour
flight from the UK to Hong Kong, followed by a 10-hour stop over before
his flight flight to Sydney
