The Maldives

UNBELIEVABLY BLUE WATERS + WHITE SANDS = PURE RELAXATION

The Maldives had been on my Top 3 Places to Visit list since I was in high school. So it's actually quite surprising that it was such an impulse trip. I'm not sure I really knew what to expect. I think I was just waiting to be blown away. And although it was an absolutely stunning place and I was able to see such amazing underwater wildlife, it didn't live up to my expectations. I guess I'm more interested in exploring and discovering rather than just relaxing and taking it easy. In any case, it was definitely a place of self-discovery.
