This was the most special week of my life. As a photographer and adventure lover, exploring the Maldives with someone who already knows the area, the people, how to get around, and all the tips and tricks, made it so super easy and stress free. I know Alex worked so hard behind the scenes to ensure this. Throughout our trip, we swam with sharks, dolphins, mantas, rays and so many fish! All of our marine life encounters felt intimate and ethical, which is a really important part of travel for me, as I know it was for many on our trip. We had the most beautiful candlelit dinners, explored private islands and sandbanks, and met some truly incredible people.
The trip allowed me to make friends that I would have never met otherwise, who will now be in my life forever. There were plenty of opportunity for people to eat lunches or dinners on their own, however every day we chose to eat each meal together. I think this is a testament to how quickly at ease and comfortable we all felt, thanks to Alex.
Alex is the loveliest, kindest, most beautiful human. There is no one else that can put people at ease and make people feel comfortable like she does. I feel so lucky that I was able to join her group trip. As someone who gets nervous meeting new people, Alex made me feel at so calm and comfortable during the trip, as well as during the lead up to the trip, answering my last-minute anxious questions! She is pure sunshine and I would recommend a trip with Alex to absolutely anyone.
