Maldives – Living the Mermaid life

It’s been quite a while guys.

My family and I were suppose to be flying to europe when covid first struck. Our flight was cancelled due to the lockdown in Italy. In hindsight, it might have been a blessing in disguise as it would be a nightmare if we’re stuck in an Italian hotel with no idea of how we’re gonna get back home.

Covid really done a number on us. With the mask wearing, to lockdowns (leading to cancelled flights), to quarantines, it’s no wonder that everyone is feeling the rush to travel when the departure gates are now reopening to everyone. So what better way than to make the first trip overseas in two years a blast by going to Maldives!

To be really honest, the ever changing travel restrictions has been a bit of a pinch in the ass. From exemptions to form filling to split stays, it took more time than the usual planning pre covid. As such, we took on the services of ZuBlu, and our correspondent, Lee, has been pretty amazing at arranging majority of our trip. He was extremely responsive and took great care of our itinerary, which we were really grateful. However, his prices were quite a bit more expensive than Agoda, thus we only planned for the dive portion with him. But even with his help, this trip wasn’t the smoothest.

Unbelievable Honeymoon – Part I

It’s been a few weeks since I got back from my honeymoon, and to be honest, I’m still high from it. It has been nothing short of amazing and who better to be there with than my incredible, now dubbed #instahubby!

Coming back to reality after a holiday has always been bad but man…….. after an incredible few weeks plus the jet lag, it’s pure torture. With a 15 days itinerary, I will be cutting the entire journey into several parts (which I realised has become quite a tradition with my travel posts).

After the smooth sailing wedding, read all about it here, we spent the month before our honeymoon being busy bees, clearing as much of our work, as well as doing last minute shopping and booking of activities. The trip cannot come sooner. Before we knew it, we were at the airport saying goodbye to our families; excited about the adventure that awaits us.
