Short stories about traveling to interesting places

Going home.
It was incredible how fast these days passed. Between snorkeling, diving, swimming, sun, we had an amazing week in Maldives. Besides the confirmation that everything said about Maldives is true, we came with the feeling that these islands are the perfect spot to relax and to explore the sea. But unfortunately it was time to go home. We took our sea plane at the first light in the morning and this was the perfect way to say far well by this country. While watching the plain window and wile I see this bizarre but beautiful island country, I couldn’t avoid a small reflection moment inspired by the scenario. This view and this moment mark not only the end of our Maldivian week but also the end of two weeks of adventures exploring all the meaning of the word “traveling”. Traveling is a great source of knowledge and it has also much educational value. While traveling we meet different persons and visits different places, get acquired with their new customs and traditions. After seeing one more country or culture we are always richer. Traveling is also a pleasure because we actually can get respite from his daily routine and worries of our daily life. As Mr. Bacon say, "Traveling in the young is part of education, in the elder, a part of experience". I don’t know exactly where I stand now, but I certainly took the best out of it. The End.

The underwater world in Maldives
In Maldives there is two different worlds: the one that you see above and the other that you can see under the water. You can’t leave Maldives without see this second one. From Medhufushi Island Resort it is possible to go to the some fine dive spots in the island for diving and snorkeling. The hotel organizes various snorkeling and scuba diving safaris to the eastern region of the atoll. The channel is covered with coral formation and rich aquatic species. The resorts have professional instructors who know all about the local areas and best unspoiled dive locations, like the the Ravestein wreck is good for diving as the shipwreck resides several fascinating species of fishes and the Ranvila wreck lies at a depth of 35 m housing various colorful aquatic species playing around. Already on my first meeting at the diving-center there was no doubt that I was in the best hands! Every morning I found a great team, motivated, good-humored and enthusiastic on the boat, all the equipment already perfectly installed. In fact the diving team made it possible. I could discover this beautiful underwater world! I had the luck to see and admire turtles, mantas, reef-sharks, a nurse shark, and particularly all those thousands of beautiful designed and colored fishes, as well as these fantastic corals - just like an amazing fairy-tale, incredible.
