Maldives on a budget: Part 3 – Gulhi
Gulhi… I’m not sure why, but this place really made me feel some kind of way. There was very little information available on the various islands, so the decision-making process was straightforward: can we get to the island with relative ease, are there decent and affordable housing options, and is there a bikini beach. Gulhi seemed to tick all the boxes, so it made its way onto our itinerary. The . . .
Maldives on a budget: Part 2 – Maafushi
First days: arrival and Maafushi The Malé International Airport is very small, despite servicing international flights, but border control is a smooth process. We couldn’t be bothered to make our way by ferry to Maafushi as this would have required a taxi and a short shuttle ferry, then a long wait (we arrived in the morning but the ferry leaves at 3pm) and it takes two hours to reach Maafushi. . . .

New Year’s Eve 2016: Milan & Bergamo (Northern Italy)
**Updated March 2018** This post has been in my 'drafts' folder for so long, mainly because there's just so much to say that it was tough to finally sit down and put together this post.

DIY Lemon body scrub
The past few months have been a mixed bag of some good, and some less good things, but now I'm back and ready to get back to the swing of things here at Seefoodplay.

Tres leches carrot cake
