Yup, that’s right. As this is being published, I’m probably flying somewhere over Thailand right now. Malaysia is someplace that had interested me, although I’m not sure why. There’s something about those impressive Petronas Towers that just calls me to see them in person, and now I’ll be staring at them for a whole week! […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of the colorful rickshaws of Melaka. Situated half-way between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, the state Melaka (Malacca) makes a great day trip from either city. Traces of its Portuguese and Dutch history can still be found throughout the city, making it […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of the Dragon and Lion Dance Extravaganza 2014 in Hong Kong. After being unsuccessful the past few years, I finally made it to this famous event in Hong Kong. On New Year’s Day we watched Dragons and Lions dancing their way […]
Planning a honeymoon is almost as important as planning the wedding– and equally stressful. There’s balancing budgets and bookings, not to mention picking the perfect destination. Your honeymoon will be the first time you are traveling together as a married couple, and after all the stress of the big day, you’ll certainly want a little relaxation. […]
You can imagine my surprise, when Johnny, someone who doesn’t know how to swim and couldn’t care less for beach holidays, told me his dream destination would be going to the Maldives. While I already couldn’t fathom the thought of hating beaches, I certainly couldn’t fathom why out of all places he would choose to […]
We were fortunately able to visit two local islands, one being the capital Male’ and the other being a small island called Rasdhoo. This small island is the capital of the Alif Alif Atoll administrative division, and home to just over 800 people. Roads and floors alike were made of dirt, and building designs were simple. The whole […]
Of course it’s great to visit the Maldives to lie around doing absolutely nothing for a week, but what about the people who actually want to get out and do something? Being an island nation, you’re never too far from water. The Maldives is home to some of the best reefs in the world, and […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of a sunrise over the water villas in the Maldives. Each morning we were awoken by the sun starting to peak over the horizon, and each morning I found myself grabbing my camera to capture the breathtaking pinks and purples […]
When we arrived in the Maldives, it was already dark outside. After a nights sleep in a small local hotel, we woke up to a rainy Male’. Our hotel was located in the middle of the island, so our anticipation began growing high as we still had yet to see the supposed azure waters of […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of Nature’s Zen Garden in the Maldives. Majority of our sunsets were spent at Kuramathi’s sand bank. Stretching far into the ocean at low tide, the sand bank was the perfect place to stroll and watch the sun set. With […]
