  Description

  Hello, I'm Maee! I am the second eldest daughter among us 5 siblings. We live together with our parents in our 8 room home sweet home in this small island called Muli, capital of Meemu Atoll, Maldives. Surrounded by white sandy beaches, you can go watch breathtakingly beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Take a swim in our beautiful oceans or go island hopping whenever you want and learn about the real maldivian culture.
  If you're into adventures, we can arrange a picnic trip to nearby uninhabited islands, go fishing maybe? And watch dolphins and sharks and turtles?!
  
  We are open for cultural exchange from all over the world. Let us learn some things about your culture and we'll share ours.
  
  I am particularly interested in learning to speak Spanish and Turkish. So if you could help me in that it would be fun. My younger sister has an interest in korean language.
  Our medium of communication will be english so if you know only english that's also awesome.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Our island is small with a population of about 1000. Learn more about our Maldivian culture and the simplicity of our lives. Surrounded by white sandy beaches, you can take a swim in the crystal clear sea whenever you feel like it. I'm sure it will feel more like a vacation here. We will make sure you have a great time with us.

  Help

  Currently need help in cleaning up our backyard and making vegetable garden beds. Need to cut down two guava trees to plant more veggies. I also want to change the front yard garden arrangements.
  If you can help with a DIY plant shelf that would be highly appreciated because I've been dreaming about this one specific hexagonal shelf.

  Accommodation

  You will get your own room attached with bathroom in the first floor of our 8 room home. We have our sitting room in ground floor where our family gathers in the evening to spend some quality time together. You are welcome to join us and have fun. Tasty maldivian food is on the menu and you don't have to cook unless you'd really like to prepare us a snack or get involved in cooking and learn some local dishes.

  What else ...

  You can basically do anything you want on your free time. If you need our assistance we're glad to help, or if want to explore the island solo that's fine too. But we highly appreciate if we all could hang out as friends have a bbq night maybe?
