These Feet Are Meant for Walking - Udhoo Rock, Maldives

Went diving today! Haven't been in the waters in about 18 months. Thought it'd be refreshing to be swimming with the fishes, and it was. No mobile phone, no emails, no social media, no talking, no listening... just swimming! The visibility wasn't great though, and aside from 2 moray eels, 1 scorpion fish, 1 large turtle and tonnes of maldivian trigger fish and the usual reef suspects, there wasn't anything earth shattering/ water splashing. I hear it's whaleshark season, but I have never been a lucky person.

That's why I think I am destined to have to work hard for my life.

Not that that bothers me though.

These Feet Are Meant for Walking - Maldives

This is my third time in the Maldives, and it still does not fail to amaze me how turquoise the waters can be and how ridiculous the geography of this place is. What was Mother Nature thinking???

Got stung by jellyfish today - second time in my life; and after sharing my first jellyfish attack from 7 years ago last night!!! The coincidence!!! It first hit me on my calf. I brushed it away, and then it came back to hit my thigh. I just couldn't believe my luck, until the pain escalated. I swerved and squinted into the water, looking for the sonofagun... and there it was, with its rainbow coloured tail shining in the waters like one of those plastic battery operated child's toy. 

One upside to the experience though... i found out that the following is true: pouring pee over a jellyfish sting helps to stop the pain. 

These Feet Are Meant For Walking - Vientiane, Laos

Apologies for having been missing in action the last few weeks/ months. I have been working my feet and have been doing tonnes of walking! I have so much to share, but not enough resilience and motivation to write about all of them. What is one to do when in such a situation???

Well, I promise to write again very soon, and hopefully with a few accounts of ridiculous adventures and profound thoughts to share. In the meantime, I'm going to continue walking, and I hope you are doing tonnes of walking too! 

p.s. make sure you treat your feet well! They are going to carry you along for many years to come!
