Happy Birthday (soon) to me, Love Maldives

Well, I can't believe another year of being on this earth has caught up with me. I'm so fortunate to spend my time surrounded by wonderful people living the proverbial dream. This year, instead of going to Italy, I will be headed to the Maldives. Yes! To the Maldives, the honeymoon capital of the world (it seems). Hopefully I will figure out whether this is, in fact, a great place for people traveling by themselves -- and, if nothing else, I will have an amazing tan when I get back! -- and other beautiful tidbits about this gorgeous country.
