A few pics of our Maldivian holiday.
Did I mention that I’m on the road again? Since I had all last week off (gotta love those school holidays!) Liebling and I decided to take off and explore Sri Lanka and the Maldives. At the risk of sounding cliche, these last 10 days travelling have been spectacular! Of particular note are the extremely friendly Sri Lankans and Maldivians we have come across who have made us feel so welcome in their home. For those not in the know, I have been sharing mini-updates and reflections on both my Facebook page and Instagram, so have a look there for words on and pics of my adventures. More tips and tricks for where to go/eat/sleep in both countries are coming, but for now, I leave you with a few pictures of the Maldives, which is really a stunner! We vetoed staying in an expensive resort (where rooms will run you about $500 USD per night — no Ma’am!) and instead decided to stay in a reasonably priced hotel in Maafushi, a local island that is more in line with our budget and interests. So look out for a post soon on how we did the Maldives without spending an arm and a leg — it can be done! At any rate, enough rambling. I’ll end this dispatch here as the beach is calling me… I have one more day in paradise and then head back to Hong Kong early Tuesday morning!

Paradise unedited!
Our hotel room is decked out with this *massive* private balcony. This is our view!
And that’s it for my teaser of the Maldives! What do you think? Have you ever been?

What do l think? I think it looks magnificent! That’s a destination my hubby and l talk about, but it is just so expensive! I can’t wait to see how much this holiday of yours cost. That view from your balcony looks pretty expensive. Hurry up and write about it 🙂
I’m on the case!!!
That water!!!
I can’t wait to venture over there myself, so I will be looking forward to more from you!
Please hurry up and write!! It has been very difficult to find information on doing the Maldives cheaply AND nicely. I so can’t wait!
This looks so gorgeous! I’ve never thought much about visiting the Maldives, but now it’s on my list!
Maldives is one of the best option for spending a vacation. My friend went there and told me so many things. Everything he explained is correctly displayed on the pictures above. Hope to visit Maldives soon.
It never been on my list although it looks gorgeous. I’m interested to see a decent travel budget here, looking forward to that post.

I was in Bangalore, India for work for two months and planned my return trip to include a stop in Maldives. My friend flew in to visit (she stopped in Srilanka first) and we met up at the airport in Male. We did stay in a resort but could only afford a weekend…bbbbuttt, we had the BEST TIME (albeit the most expensive weekend of our lives in terms of cost per night)!!! It was one of those YOLO kinda things. Maldives was always on my list but it was one of those ‘reach’ items…so…I HAD to go when I was sooo close. I visited in May 2014.
Wow those pictures look amazing! I’m craving a good beach!
It looks incredible! I am looking forward to reading about it in more details (hotel prices would be good too!)
Wow, Maldives looks amazing! I really like the picture of you in blue dress.
Really beautiful! I’ve never really thought of going to the Maldives..as a newbie travel blogger, Im taking accessible countries first…hope to get there someday though! I’ve heard nice things about Sri Lanka, and most definitely I will do it soon enough..:-)
Looks beautiful! I literally just applied for a masters back in Toronto and then I see posts like this and I think ‘But…but… there’s SO MUCH I haven’t seen yet’. Enjoy!
This is my first time visiting your site, and wow! What a great introduction! Your photos are absolutely beautiful. I can’t wait to read more because I’ve always assumed the Maldives was just one of those places I’d never be able to afford.
Looks like amazing holiday !
