Islands of romance - Maldives



I need a spoonful of beach breakaway each year, to release all the stress and escape from the reality for a while. This year we made it to a more luxurious Maldives, a truly paradise lies in the Indian ocean.


We found huge solace in a small piece of gems, Komandoo Island - one of the thousands beautiful island in Maldives.


Komandoo Island

In this small and isolated island, all the activities we did in 6 days were barely eating, drinking, snorkeling, swimming and sleeping. The sea depth was about 4 to 5 feet height within 250 meters from beach, water was very calm and clear, I never felt so much pleasure swimming in the sea. And the house reef was fantastic, with a pair of fins and dive mask, we swam amid the coral and sea creatures.

However, I enjoyed sunbathing while reading my beach books the most. Although I live in a equatorial country, but I rarely do that in my own country. I could not just sunbathing on my bikini in my own garden! Or else I might get famous among my neighborhood! :D

Slack off

It has been a busy month since end of April, brother-in-law's wedding, mother's day and the visiting of the relatives from Australia. The events and activities involved a lots of works, dinners and some outing.

After those events, I feel very sluggish, I just want to stay at home, do nothing and watch TV. If you want to throw me a party, please be a slumber party, and that would be great! My tiredness is finally recovered after a long holiday, slack off at home. I have been slacking in writing blogs, scrap-booking and even gardening.

It's time to get up and be on track again, gambateh neh!!!!!
