Doro Explorero's Quest to Travel Around The World

More than two years ago, I believe, a friend of mine, out of the blue, reconnected with me. He said he's up to something, and he wants me to join the group. I was curious, but I do have my reservations. I went with him in a so called "meet-up" and was introduced to a bunch of crazy beautiful people. Meet-ups were followed by more incidences of get-together. Until so much have been shared and I was educated and learned a lot. There's one thing in that group that has lead me, somehow, to realize this dream. I was affirmed that "I can". Yes, one of the important lessons I've learned is that if I would truly believe in something, ask of it, as if it's already received, it shall become a reality. Sounds like a bible verse right? And yes, it's true, whether you heard it from me first time, from the bible or from someone else, I am telling you it's true.  So, this is the story of our Maldives dream come true.

So here my Paradise Island experience. We arrived early in the morning and of course, I can't miss the sunrise! It's just so beautiful! As soon as we stepped, our stomach demanded to be filled. The only vice that you can't really leave. Eating! Breakfast is just the first thing we wanted to do. We didn't care where to go, we just want to eat. It's around 6:30 AM. We were told we can stay anywhere in the area, restaurant area is where people with no food are allowed to stay and eat.
