Since summer is over in the Philippines, it's time for me to make a plan trip to Maldives—the sunny side of life.
Why Maldives? Visa is not required, at least for 30 days. Upon arrival though, foreigners, like me, will be given an entry permit. By the way, Male is the capital city of Maldives.
What am I going to do in Maldives? A lot. I can go surfing, diving, whale and dolphin watching, and underwater photography. Okay, I know that I can do these things in the islands of the Philippines, but Maldives will give me a different experience.
How to go to Maldives? By plane. The cheapest airfare I found cost PHP 32,900 ($635)—from Ninoy Aquino International Airport to Male International, Male, Maldives. So the said airfare plus extra cash of perhaps $500… hmmm, I think I'd rather stay in the Philippines and spend a few days in Palawan.
