WoooHoooo. Sounds like a great plan to me!
Maldives actually came to my attention a couple of years ago because it is so endangered by the rising sea level. Do I think you can tour it on a budget? As a matter of fact, yes. But you probably won't be staying in that room with the pool in your photo :) I think if anyone can do it on a budget, you are that person.
Thanks for taking us along...
Haha yay! I'm super excited you're coming along! I was so surprised to find a cheap flight like that but, it's just because I would be so close. Most people I think find the trouble getting here. I am a woman of the budget travel so I have faith. I'll let you guys in on the secrets when I find them. I certainly won't be in that pool, you're darn right :P But that's OK. I'll find other photos to be had :)
We'll be there next week! Hope you're as excited as me <3
