When Covid first reared its head we had just finished our first year working in the beautiful Maldives 🇲🇻
Soon after, the resort closed and we were fortunate enough to spend 4 months living on a 400m x 200m island just like our own private little patch of paradise in the middle if the Indian Ocean!
We spent our days pretending we were in Cast Away and working with the resort on some Marine Conservation projects; planting coral nurseries, beach clean ups and many underwater jetty clean up dives!
Although we had a great time discovering what trash-ers were hidden under the ocean, it was also also so heartbreaking to see so much trash thrown into our oceans.
It's so hard these days to totally avoid plastics but when grocery shopping, opt for the veg out of plastic, get some reusable bags, treat yourself to a reusable coffee cup and reusable water bottle! Even if we do something small everyday, we are doing something to help our planet 🌏

“Sunset is so marvelous that even the sun itself watches it every day in the reflections of the infinite oceans!” - Mehmet Murat Ildan
Sunsets are one of the worlds gifts that you can never be sick of! We try and see the sun set as often as possible 🌅....sunrises tend to be a little trickier to catch 🤭
