Dates, watermelon, coconut water Iftar. Streets & beach silent. Put in an almost normal day’s work. Delicious aroma of Maldivian curries wafting around the hour before Maghrib prayers. When I woke this morning I wondered how I’d get through the day! ❤️

I’ve discovered anew application for Brownian Motion. Mopeds in Male’ will distribute themselves evenly to fill any space created for them. Like this once open space at the fishermen’s rest area.

Much to value in traditional practices. Many modern innovations are great but let’s keep the best of the old - these, too, were innovations once! Many old practices are more eco-friendly than the modern (coir/plastic) & they make Maldives Maldives.

Fun fact: you can see them year-round in #Maldives . Addu Atoll is the only location in Maldives where mantas rays with over 5 meter of wingspan are known to exist.

Met these bright young people at the @mvpeoplesmajlis on Monday after the Presidential address, interested in their country’s political system. Next time I hope to meet young women in this initiative too @MoGFSSmv . The Chamber is very male-dominated.
