THE ADVENTURE
Germany is a country rich with culture and artistic flair and also a place that’s near and dear to Edward’s heart. “Germany is really close to my heart because I was born and raised here. Here, actually, in Heidelberg. So getting to shoot here is a big deal for me because this is where I grew up and there’s a lot of sentimental value,” the 17-year-old tells about his hometown. For Maymay, she recalled how surreal it was getting to be a cover star for MEGA, “Pinangarap ko lang, magka-photoshoot kahit simple, yung parang mukhang artista na ako pero ang binigay sa akin, sobra pa.” And indeed, the entire experience was like an adventure out of a dream sequence—fanciful and like an absolute modern fairytale.
