Two weeks ago, a colleague of mine left the island for good. She did not renew her contract with our company and just went back home to China. We weren't really very close friends but she's one of my favorite colleagues. We used to swim and snorkel together. She's one funny girl. A bit naive… Continue reading One By One They All Leave
Today, I was lucky enough to have an amazing encounter with the playful dolphins. I've never seen this much and this close. However, I found it hard to get nice pictures of them because they were very fast. So here are some pictures that I have taken, no (dolphin) jump shots though, I'm such an… Continue reading Dolphin Cruise
Today, me and my colleagues went to another resort where the FUTSAL league is being held. FUTSAL is a variation of Football played on a smaller court and to tell you, Maldivians are die hard Foot ball enthusiasts. So this game is a big thing for my Maldivian colleagues and we were there to support… Continue reading FUTSAL
Yesterday, I got a chance to visit Kudahuvhadoo Island, though not for a leisure trip. Me and my 15 expat colleagues went there for medical as our work permits are due for renewal. But even though it wasn't a leisure trip, I made sure I'll have photos to bring home. Kudahuvhadoo Island is located in Dhaalu Atoll… Continue reading A Day Trip to Kudahuvhadoo Island
One of my tasks here is to take care of Media guests, Bloggers and Travel Agents visiting our resort. Over the last 10 months of doing so, I've met a lot of different people from different countries with different agendas. Most of them are nice but there are some ungrateful bloody b@$=^*s! Anyway, my recent Russian… Continue reading From Russia with Love
I was browsing through my folders today and saw the photos I took last December when I stayed in Male' for a day prior to my flight to Manila. I stayed in a guest house and took some photos of the room while letting the time pass. I am so used to being alone without feeling… Continue reading Melancholia
One of the perks of working here in the Maldives is that whenever you get stressed from your daily tasks or routine, you can just go out of your office and look at the stunning view and you'll be so relaxed when you get back to the office. And if the view is not enough,… Continue reading Maldivian Colors of Serenity
I gate crashed yet another fishing party today. The boat left the island at 6:45 am. The moon was still up, the sky still dark. Our eyes half awake, our stomachs craving for warm coffee. I waited for the sun to come out. It's been a while since I last saw the sunrise. I sat by… Continue reading I Thought of Today
Whenever I visit a new place, I would always look for a food chain familiar to me. I'm not very adventurous when it comes to food. I'm actually very picky so I'd rather look for food that my tummy knows, rather than experimenting on a new cuisine and later on regretting the money and food… Continue reading Cafés in Malé
Pagbrowse ko ng newsfeed kaninang umaga, nakita ko ang post ng highschool classmate ko. Nandun ang litrato ng bagong silang niyang anak at ang status na sa siyam na taon niyang pabalik balik ng Dubai, ngayon lang daw durog na durog ang puso niyang aalis dahil maiiwan niya ang anak niya. Tuwing pinapakilala ko ang… Continue reading Durog na Durog
