Birthday in Paradise: Our 4D/3N stay in Meeru Island Resort & Spa – Maldives
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 [...]
The Seychelles Islands: Our 6D/5N Seychellaxing itinerary (Part 2/2)
Oh, Seychelles! Coming here was definitely a huge tick off the wanderlist and another dream come true.

Random snippets of what we did on the start of a hopeful year. The warmth of the sun touching our faces, the cool breeze that makes us shiver, the soft sand beneath our toes, the smell of breakfast lingering in the air and the echoing laughter in the middle of nowhere - a life worth [...]
EXPLORE UAE: Dubai Desert Safari

One of which is what we did last Valentines Day - the ever famous, Desert Safari. The dune bashing activity was crazy and [...]
