"It's not the amount of time you spend in a place that makes it memorable; It's the way you spend time".

Our story begins like this, I am Gloria, and she is my best friend Katherine, we are best friends, and our dream was to travel to the Maldivian islands, and years later we could do it. Without doubts it was one of the best trips of our life.

The Maldivian islands are in the Indian Ocean, south of India. It is a group of 1,190 coral islands distributed in 26 large atolls, coral structures separated by lagoons that extend creating a landscape that falls in love with its natural charm.

Probably the simplest and most correct way to define the Maldivian islands is to say that they are a paradise on earth.

Since we were in college, we decided to save our money so that one day we could make the trip of our dreams. The day of our graduation we received a big surprise, we won the plane tickets in a raffle of our university and as we had our savings, we decided to prepare our luggage. And that's how we got to our destination the Maldivian islands.

Our first stop was at Ari atoll, one of the largest atolls in the Maldives, where the most famous dive sites and organized cruises are located. 

In that beautiful place Kath decided to swim with sharks. I was very scared because they were very deep waters and scared me, but she says it was a unique experience...
