maldives

traveling - it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta

So i always wanted to go to Maldives since forever little dd i know that one day suddenly we will book the tickets and fly on same night. Not anything was in offer, cheap or free just but just becuase travel bee stung us hard. Maldives is visa free for Pakistani passport so u can actually a make sudden plan. 

we booked in Halumale city a beach hotel vista beach retreat. It was small with only like 12 rooms or less. but it was opposite beach and budget friendly so perrrfectzzz. BTW u can also stay in resort which is on island. we wanted exploring adventure type holiday so we choose this,

Beach Opp. our hotel 

Day 1: we  decided on snorkeling and dolphin watching. i was a not really sure about snorkeling bcoz sharks will eat me but i still gave it a try. we reached on little private sand bay in a speed boat.

with no one around just us and the boat guy. so he trained us a little bit and then took us in deeper sea but after watching one fish i was terrified and i backed out hahaha no regrets. then we went on for dolphin watching but no luck no dolphins just dark deep blue see around. speed boat was fun though.

It gets dark early in Maldives we ate at a desi restaurant Bombay Darbar near our hotel and just snoozed

day 2: we decide to go on an paradises island and enjoy the luxury resort life. it was beyond beautiful and u can fall in love  immediately.

 we stayed on the beach all day, skin tanned, ate alot of food and chilled on this swing 

after that we decide on going for night fishing and on aur way to fishing spot we saw dolphinssss yay.

life complete

  we caught only 1 fish and then we came back to our hotel and they cooked it for us.

later that night we went out to same desi place for falooda. 

day 3: was we just wanted to chill at beach but we decide to go on a ferry from Halumale to male city to explore the male life. its a small little tinny city of 4 km full of bikes. little resturants and cut sovenier shops 

 i just stayed on the beach until the airport taxi came to pick us up and left for airport in flip flops forcefully by hubby coz i didn't want to leave

 had to say bye to this beautiful sunset.

Fujairah Dairies

So it was national day holiday and we had no particular plans as usual.

Weather was beautiful and my brother wanted to go for road trip so Fujairah was our destination

Fujairah is one of the seven emirates of UAE, which has beaches, mountain and gorgeousness all over.

After driving for about 45 mins we stopped  to look at mountain

Then  we stopped at a market called friday market  in Dhaid city. We took pictures , had corn and bought some fruits(they were chepaer and more fresh then in supermarket ) 

They also had carpets, pottery , fresh flowers and plants, toys, gift items and everything basically 

Back in car and we are on road again . Stopped at a few more places for more selfies with mountains and beautiful sky 

As we more forwards the mountain were getting higher and beautiful  and we finally found beach ,

This beach was bot crowded only a few families here and there having camping going on .

Soaked feet

Collected some shells

So we had some good time there and said good bye to this beach which was called crab beach according to my bro. which was true coz in maps it has shape of crab

Then stopped at sharjah cooperative society .Which was like a small mall we grabed a some bite to eat .

We asked for 2 shawrma at Hatam and they handed us 2 shorba (soup)

We stopped at khorfakhan beach and park and a boat ride which was a lot of fun 

It was almost 5 in the evening and we left the beach to be on road again . 

Golden hour is the best time to enjoy the beauty of nature when sun finally says good bye 

P.s i also vloged almost parts of this trip which i shall post some day. 

Until next time

Beaches

I have a love/hate relationship with beaches. Finaly its better weather outside in dubai and you can hit the beaches. And take all the kool selfiess.

Second day of eid was Jumeirah beach for us . We didnt have any barbeque orswimming  planned so we chose jumeirah open beach. Just to sit by the water and enjoy the wave sounds and soak up feets in saltywater with rollad leggings.

It was first time my nephew actually played in the beach sand and he loved it i guess .he collected all the kool shells and stones.

Overall it was a nice relaxing trip . I loved it. 

Untill next time bye
