Romance • Drama

Sometimes the hardest journey is admitting the truth.

Poppy (Emily Bader) and Alex (Tom Blyth) couldn’t be more different. She’s spontaneous, free-spirited, and always up for an adventure. He’s reserved, thoughtful, and a creature of routine. Yet, despite their stark differences, they’ve shared one beautiful tradition for years—a summer vacation together. Every year, they escape their everyday lives to explore new places, creating memories that feel almost magical. But what starts as a ritual of fun and friendship soon begins to blur the lines between just being best friends and something deeper.

As the years pass, the chemistry between them becomes undeniable, and they start to question everything they’ve known about their relationship. Every vacation, every moment spent together, leaves them wondering: Could it be that the person who has always felt like home is the one they’ve been with all along? Or is it too late for them to realize they’ve always been more than just friends?

The latest vacation brings them to a destination more breathtaking than they could have imagined. Yet, amid the stunning scenery, their unspoken feelings and unresolved tensions reach a boiling point. Poppy’s carefree nature clashes with Alex’s hesitations, leading them to face a painful truth neither was ready for. Love was always there, hidden behind years of shared laughter and adventures. But now, the question is—can they let go of their past to build something real together, or will they let fear keep them apart forever?

In People We Meet on Vacation, love isn’t just about the destination—it’s about the journey. And sometimes, the hardest part of the journey is being honest with yourself, especially when the answer you’re afraid to admit is the one you need the most.

This heartfelt, emotional tale reminds us that love doesn’t always look like what we expect—but it’s often exactly what we need. With every vacation, with every shared laugh and tear, Poppy and Alex will come to understand that the greatest adventure of all might just be finding the courage to admit what’s been right in front of them the whole time.
