Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my skills & knowledge with others and others with me !! Thank you for your support before, during and probably also after my placement. Thank you for being a strong, flexible, reliable and well organized group of enthusiastic people.
And YES, you were right :

  • It sometimes was as difficult as you told me it would be…
  • It mostly was as beautiful as you told me I would be.
  • And yes, just sometimes, it was indeed as lonely as you told me it would be…

But the few constrains did not prevent me from having a great time, meeting many new interesting and lovely people, discover new places, learn a completely new culture and was able to do my contribution to sharing and learning.
Constrains did not stop me from developing myself and learn how it is to live in a different culture, with so many, to me unknown customs. I tried to do the best I can, as a professional and as a human being.
A special thanks to :Haifa for her advice, her support and her feedback during my placement,

  • Shyana for her role during my emergency leave to Holland and being “my balcony friend” at the office,
  • Waheeda, for her patience and willingness to find out whatever I needed to find out,
  • Laam, for helping me in those times when the allowance just wasn’t enough,
  • Hatyhe, for her fantastic coffee, no where to be found in Maldives,
  • Gura, for sharing the “to-do & not-to-do” things with me,
  • Shiva for his wise words and solid performance during the “Dutch” security alert.
  • Thank you VSO Maldives, Netherlands and Uk for two excellent years.

Leven in het paradijs

Republic of MaldivesDe Malediven is een archipel bestaande uit ongeveer 1200 eilanden, waarvan er zo'n 190 worden bewoond. Gelegen in de Indische Ocean, met een tropisch klimaat en bewoond door zeer gastvrije mensen is dit voor mij dé ideale plek om te wonen en te werken.  Via deze pagina geef ik u graag meer inzicht in het leven op de Malediven
