What daily necessities should I prepare for my trip to Maldives?

1, do your homework before you go, look at the raiders and experience more, and worry about it later;

2. The things in the duty-free shop in the Capital Airport are very cheap. You can buy it when you go out. When I came back, there was only a small counter on Sunday.

3. The airport duty-free shop in Kuala Lumpur is very dark, and the exchange rate between Malaysian ringgit and RMB is actually 1:0.46, which is equivalent to a price increase of 20%;

4. No matter what is in the duty-free shop, the receipt must be sealed in the packaging bag, otherwise it is not good to get on the plane;

Malaysia Airlines is similar to other airlines. There are two choices for airplane meals: one is unpalatable and the other is super unpalatable. Ask more questions when necessary and choose one that can be eaten.

6. Sleeping friends wear seat belts where everyone can see them. Otherwise, someone really wakes you up and asks you what to eat and drink.

7. Friends who are afraid of light when sleeping remember to buy an eye mask, and the time spent in the air exceeds 10 hour;

8. Be sure to fill in the entry card on the plane, otherwise ... go back to the plane to get it;

9. When the plane is going to land at Male Airport, it is surrounded by the sea and directly below the land. Don't be afraid, because when you get off the plane, it's more thunder and less rain;

10, Lei 1: The terminal has two floors. Think about it. Lei Er: The airport security guard is dressed as a bandit and holding a real AK-47 (it seems to be a military airport).

1 1, the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the plane is too large, and the camera equipment is generally foggy, so the picture of Male Airport is rare;

12, the entry formalities are at the exit of the airport. He will take two thirds of the completed entry card, and you must keep one third, otherwise you may leave your permanent residence when you come back;

13. I forgot the Chinese characters when I left the airport. The person who answered the phone (holding a sign written in Pinyin) asked "Hello" and then asked "Do you speak English?". ......

14, the person who picks up the station will give you the hotel order, put it away and hand it in when you register at the hotel;

15, the person who picks up the station will also leave your contact information. It's not that you have a problem with him, but that you can call him if you have nothing to do on the day you leave. He is traveling freely in Male, not shopping for free. I guess shopping must have his commission, so I won't say much;

16, the start time of the hotel on the island is noon 12, and the Malaysia Airlines flight arrives in the evening. Going directly to the hotel is equivalent to wasting half a day's room rate. So friends with tight budget can consider staying in Male, the smallest capital in the world, for one night, which is much cheaper than hotels, about a few hundred nights (I heard), and then visiting the smallest capital in the world the next day.

17, the means of transportation between the islands is bus or speedboat, which is similar to the green bus, very simple, one person is one yuan;

18. The speedboats in Maldives are just like buses, so it is normal to rampage at sea. If you take something away from your hand, the wind will easily blow it away.

19, the bus will often scrape like a bus, just following the rocks in the sea. Don't panic when I meet them. I met them twice in four days and still posted here.

20. Keep some small change of $ 1 on hand, and prepare five yuan every day. Why?

2 1, tip, generally per person 1 USD, pick up the luggage, pick up the station and tidy up the room, so as to enhance the international influence of China people;

22. Today's (September 23rd) exchange rate: The buying rate of USD is RMB 6.82 = USD 65,438 +0, which can be calculated by multiplying it by 7.

23. When registering on the island, take out the order given by the airport pick-up, fill in the personal information, and carefully check whether the nationality is misspelled. If you misspell it, stroke it hard, and ours will be written as Korean, blacked out and written as China. Then, you can get the key and the information on the island.

24. Don't lose your key. If you lose it, you will have to pay 50 dollars.

25. The water on the island is relatively expensive, 1.5 liter $5. You can bring pure water from China according to your personal situation. It is almost the same to check a box of 24 bottles (6 days and 4 nights). A friend left half of it back, but I didn't drink enough, and I brought a big bottle of pulsating seawater, which was not enough. I call the bucket the last purified seawater.

26. There is usually a small refrigerator under the TV cabinet in the room. Everything in it costs money. For example, a 330ml Coca-Cola costs $5. You can put your own water in it and freeze it. ......

27. There is no free tea or even a hot kettle in the seaside villa on Paradise Island. The water house on Dream Island has free breakfast tea, free China tea, free black tea, free coffee, free partner (coffee), free brown sugar, free hot water kettle, free jacuzzi ... Other islands are not clear;

28. Seawater purification technologies vary from island to island. Heaven is slippery and sticky, and dreamy is more like tap water. Have a brave taste, sweet. Friends of Paradise Island, if you have a hot kettle to boil water, you'd better burn the bottled water you carry with you.

29, riding a white horse is not necessarily a prince, Asian faces are not necessarily from China! For example, I asked two people, "China people?" Reply: "Japanese." Cut ~ ~ ~ ~ turn away/mountain;

30. At sea, I saw a red bag floating over, which said "excellent", and suddenly I was speechless ... Later, I found many things printed with Chinese characters in the store! Therefore, we don't have to throw "top-notch" bags, I hope we won't throw them in the future;

3 1. Special requirements similar to honeymoon period can be put forward when booking a room. Hotels on the island will prepare: honeymoon beds, fruit bowls and champagne (free of charge), and a waiter will recommend honeymoon dinner to you (charge, but you can eat it in a very special place);

* Note: 1, marriage certificate is not checked.

2. Xiaohei's craft is not bad. Our honeymoon bed is simple compared with others', but it still feels beautiful.

3. Please choose carefully when traveling alone or with more than two people.

32. There are many animals on the seashore/sea. If everyone catches it, no one may go now (Maldivian locals have a strong sense of environmental protection);

33. There are many crabs on the reef, black, gray, flowered and red (not cooked food). Most of them are about 6 cm in diameter. They can jump, but they are hard to catch. Don't catch them, not to protect animals, because: I caught a tiny crab with a diameter of 1 cm and held it in my hand. The little guy held out his pliers and gently clamped them, leaving two in my hand.

34. Never challenge nature by launching in places marked "Be careful" or "No swimming". If we are lucky, we may be able to drift back to Tianjin.

35. You can bring some bread from the restaurant and feed the fish on the shallow shore or on the wooden plank road. Very emotional. As long as it drops a little, it will attract a lot. This is how our photos were taken. Very beautiful;

36. Seats in the dining room are determined according to the room number. From the first meal to the outlying islands, we all use the same table (except honeymoon dinner). In fact, this is also for convenience, so you don't have to check out every time you eat, and you have to pay the bill together when you finally check out;

37. On the one hand, save money; on the other hand, every meal has a fixed time slot, especially lunch time, so you don't have to wander around. If we rush to have lunch again, the time will be very inflexible. Practice has proved that this choice is quite correct, because there is a third aspect;

38. Cooking for foreigners is very simple, except for roasting and frying, which is not as heavy as Chinese food. After eating things like bread and butter for four days, I still feel nauseous when I think about it ~ ~ ~ ~ Fortunately, I brought a few packs of "new X noodles" and "white X hot and sour powder" at that time, and I went back to my room at two o'clock every afternoon and sat by the sea to eat instant noodles.

39. Juice is provided for breakfast, and there is no free drink for dinner. Please bring your own drinks.

40. The western food served in the restaurant is very formal, including the dishes and the environment. Each person provides a set of knives and forks of different sizes. I haven't eaten very formal western food in China. I thought I was afraid of getting dirty on the ground, so I prepared an extra set, and then I dropped one on purpose/accidentally. Xiaohei immediately picked it up for me and replaced it with a new one. Inferring that both sets are useful! The big ones eat dinner and the small ones eat fruit desserts;

4 1, Chinese food is served at one time, and western food is served at one time. The self-help method is basically the same. Foreigners basically take the main course first and eat it with big tableware, and Xiaohe will help remove it, then take the dessert fruit and eat it with small tableware. We stopped talking then ~ ~ ~ ~

42. If you choose the honeymoon package, you can experience more formal western food, reaching four sets of utensils/person, placed from the outside to the inside, eating side dishes, soup, main course and dessert respectively, and everyone will eat their own, that is to say, after eating one set, we will withdraw one set. We don't care so much. Let's eat on a different plate and then change seats directly.

43. Some snacks in the restaurant are made by Xiaohei on the spot, and the craftsmanship is not bad. If necessary, you need not worry about your English at all. Stand in front of him and use your finger:

"This, this, um, and this, a little, ok, thank you" is almost these words;

44. Once again, you don't have to worry about your English at all. Can basically communicate price, time and simple items. If not, look it up in the dictionary. Remember to install one for your mobile phone when you leave. If it can't be installed, um ~ ~ ~ change your mobile phone;

45. Maldives has its own national language, but because it is a tourist country, English has become a second language, and its popularity almost exceeds that of its mother tongue. Every small black city. But Xiaohei's English is not easy to understand, and he is swallowing long words from beginning to end. You can ask him to speak slowly and simply, but don't pretend to understand. For example, the arrangement on the island must be clearly stated, which is really bad. Gestures and writing with a pen can be used for many purposes.

46. As for our communication with Xiaohei, it will be relatively easy. After all, we are familiar with the environment on the island, and other tourists may have mentioned our problems. With gestures, paper and pen, it can generally be solved.

Example: On the day we left, we packed our things and went to the seaside with blue and white striped blankets. We want to play for a while and then send it back. We explained to Xiaohei: I took the blanket from the room ... and found that the blanket couldn't talk, and started to make gestures, rectangular, blue and white, blue and white ... and he understood, oh ~ ~ ~

* Note: My English is actually not bad.

47. Xiaohe is very polite and enthusiastic (in fact, people on the island are very enthusiastic). When walking, Xiaohe will take the initiative to say "good morning". If the next sentence is "How are you?" I believe that primary school students can answer politely, and I, at that time, answered "Hello ~ ~ ~", which was embarrassing and was thrown abroad! ! !

Insert an old joke:

L 1: How are you? China: Why are you?

L 1: How old are you? China: Why is it always you?

I was thinking about this joke and almost blurted out how old you are.

* Note: My English is not bad, really.

48. In the bathroom of my room, there is a rectangular towel, which is blue, white, blue, white, blue and white. It is very comfortable to be laid on the lounge chair next to the beach, watching the scenery and sunbathing.

49. If you find a towel on your favorite lounge chair when you go to the seaside, get up a few minutes early the next day, spread the towel for breakfast, and talk while eating: Yeah! The lounge chair is ours today;

50. Snorkeling equipment can be bought in China or rented at the front desk of the hotel, but considering hygiene, it is better to bring it yourself (￥ 1 18/ set);

5 1. I heard that I can snorkel without swimming, but I found out that I was cheated ... I may not be able to dive easily wearing a life jacket. I suggest practicing in the swimming pool before going into the sea. The sea water in Maldives is very salty and super salty, which makes my stomach ache. ......

52. Snorkeling Tips: Personal Realization

The bending direction of the breathing tube is to the back of the head, and naturally rises vertically after entering the water;

The silicone around the mirror must be close to your face, and don't clip your hair, otherwise it will get water;

Under the mirror, especially check the part along the sealed nostril, which is the most likely place to choke water;

In case the mirror is flooded, don't panic, it can be solved underwater: slightly raise your head and blow into the mirror with your nose. Air is lighter than water, and water will naturally be discharged from below;

Don't panic in case of water in the breathing tube. Blow hard in your mouth with this sound, and the water will be discharged from the breathing tube;

53. The sunshine on the equator is very strong. When you are outdoors, you must apply sunscreen, SPF 50+, and apply it every half hour when you enter the water. If you are too troublesome, you will be like me now: black/white/black;

54. Even if you apply sunscreen every hour, you can't avoid sunburn on some parts (such as shoulders and nose). Prepare a bottle to dry and mend it, and apply it to each other before going to bed. I didn't pay much attention to whether it was useful or not, but it was cool to see people screaming in pain ~ ~ ~ ~;

Remember to set the alarm clock when you sleep, and then check it twice: date/battery, otherwise the alarm clock will probably not ring on time. In a hotel with 3000 yuan/day, "time is money" becomes particularly meaningful;

56. The same is true of telephone calls. The island's IDD IDD 2.33 USD/min, which is about RMB 16 yuan/min. Clearly marked, understandable.

* Note: 1: I bought a calling card when I transferred in Kuala Lumpur. 1 has a calling card of RM 2 and a calling card of RM 20 is sold in 50 yuan! Insert, that is, 19 yuan, 1 Yuan has been donated to Malaysian Hope Project. Insert a dozen, and jump to 0.5 yuan in less than 10 second, black!

* Note 2: Please refer to the instructions carefully for the method of making IDD calls. Don't call other people's homes, you will lose a lot;

57. Mobile GSM can be used in the GSM network in Maldives. If it is a dynamic zone, you need to deposit 800 phone bills in the "designated" business hall before you can open international roaming. Not to mention Unicom (I wonder if Maldives is also divided into Madai Mobile and Madai Unicom);

58. There is no charge for internal calls. In particular, if you ask what is charged in the house and what is free, you can call the front desk to ask.

59. If you want to participate in various activities on the island, you don't need to make an appointment by phone, just sign the corresponding activity list at the front desk. Different lists correspond to different activities. Don't sign it wrong.

(Imagine: I prepared a full set of camera equipment for watching dolphins, but I was taken to the snorkeling area ...)

In case you can't read, you can look for pictures nearby, which are generally introduced in English. The specific information such as price and time schedule can be found on the documents you got on the day of check-in.

60. Remember to bring a computer or digital companion, and the camera memory card will definitely be full (many times);

* Note: My record: 2G card,100000 pixels/piece, 4 continuous shooting/second, dolphin shooting at sunset, full shooting in 5 minutes;

6 1, friends who dream in heaven, don't worry about the charging of various digital devices. The two islands use 220V British plugs, and there is an adapter in the socket in the room, which can be used by ordinary plugs in China (the situation in other islands is not well understood);

62. Well, it's almost time to say goodbye to Maldives ~ ~ ~ I'm sure I'll bring some special products back. If you have time, you can take a bus to the capital Male to buy it. If you don't have time, you can buy it in a nearby store before boarding the plane. All prices are settled in US dollars. You can bargain, cut them at half price, and then say that you can usually beat them by about 60%.

63. Eating at airports all over the world is very expensive. If you insist, you can eat on the plane. /kloc-there will even be a plane meal after 0/0. Although it tastes terrible, it tastes better than the $24 noodles at the airport (the most expensive noodles you have ever eaten are more expensive than Master Kong's home beef noodles).

64. Speaking of the duty-free shops in Maldives airport, PSP2000 costs $300. It's up to you ~ ~ ~ ~

65, remember: commonly used drugs must be brought;

The above 65 experiences are purely personal opinions and are for reference only. Mainly to remind friends to avoid some troubles and not to affect the trip. Among them, the parts about jet lag, meals and handsome guys and beautiful women that must be experienced by themselves were deliberately deleted.

At the same time, it is suggested that friends who want to go to Madai should first focus on the key links of the Raiders Sticker, not the process part, and then slowly experience the fun of wearing pearls. Maybe they can have their own personality arrangements and find surprises that others have not found.
