First Impressions of Maldives - Maafushi Vlog 🇲🇻

I cover my first impressions of the Maldives and my first day in the nation of 1200 islands as I fly into Airport Island and then take a boat to the local island of Maafushi where I explore the town/village full of locals and tourists while discussing the interesting culture, predicaments and history of the smallest nation in Asia. Instead of looking at Maldives resorts, we explore the real Maldives
