While I was home for Spring holiday I received the email from Ms. Pham that had all the information about the activities in the Maldives and the prices. It was great to get all of this information because I have been trying to figure out how much money I should plan to pack while abroad. I know I want to do all of the activities in the Maldives, so I will bring enough to cover those expenses. I would love to snorkel at turtle point and visit a sandbar. Ironically, as I type this message I can see the wallpaper on my computer screen and it is a picture of a sandbar in the middle of the ocean. The sandbar activity is on my life bucket list, so it will be a dream come true. I also want to account for any souvenirs I plan to buy and the food while I’m over there. I know Ms. Pham plans to purchase her meals for the Maldives while in Sri Lanka, so I think I will do the same. Ms. Pham’s email was very helpful and I’m glad I have a better idea of the expenses. Now, I can budget accordingly.
