Western girl spends money to marry Asian village boy

Indonesian media has been abuzz with the thrilling love story of Ilaria, a young girl from Italy and Dzufilkar, a young man living in Central Java, Indonesia.

Ilaria and Dzufilkar met on Facebook two years ago. They chatted and sent each other photos before falling in love. Unfortunately, one lived in Italy and the other in Indonesia, and neither of them had the financial means to make the long journey.

But love always finds a way and the two decided not to let this difficulty get in the way of their happiness. From then on, Ilaria started saving the small salary she earned from her job as a waitress in a restaurant. She hoped that one day she would have enough money to buy a plane ticket to meet her lover.

It took Ilaria two years to make her dream come true. On April 18, 2017, she landed in Indonesia and headed straight to the small village of Tragung on the coast of Central Java, where Dzulfikar was waiting for her.

The Traguang people don’t see many Italian tourists, so when Ilaria arrived with her luggage and asked about a young man, everyone was interested in her. The police even came to the village to investigate the presence of this Western girl.

The police came to question Ilaria about her presence.

Ilaria said she had been saving for two years to get to Indonesia. Her parents knew about the relationship and wanted a wedding.

However, before she could become a bride, Ilaria had to prove to the local police that she was single. Although it took a while, at least she was now with the man she loved after two years of waiting.
