DAY ONE 12 o'clock. We arrived at a parking lot by the Jumeirah Beach for our first day of training where we were met by our instructor, Mustafa of Nemo Diving Center. We were then ushered to what appears to be their usual rendezvous - adorned with shining silver cylinders, wet vests that has hoses [...]
Months. Weeks. Days. I patiently counted until my last working day, the day of my birth and the day we fly to one of the destinations high above almost everyone's travel list- MALDIVES. On an instagram post, I have stated that I am really not keen on celebrating big or going on trips for my [...]
Oh, Seychelles! Coming here was definitely a huge tick off the wanderlist and another dream come true.

Malta. Population: over 400,000 Two years after adding it into our wanderlist, we finally turned our dream of visiting this small European country into a reality. After an almost 8-hr flight from Dubai (with a connecting flight in Istanbul), we giddily set foot in Malta; ready to explore and take on new adventures. Our 10-day stay [...]
