Whenever I need to really recharge my batteries, I do one of two things:  fly to the Maldives and stay at Six Senses' Soneva Fushi or Soneva Gili: two bits of paradise where the food is glorious and the atmosphere enchanting. It's always sunny in the Maldives and it is a wonder what a few days running through powder white sand pretending you are a child can do to your brain.

I book with Royal Travel and fly with Emirates.

If I cannot afford to leave, I spend hours going through the hundreds of photos of blue, green, red sunsets and bright yellow moons. It's not the real thing but it sure comes close.

I share them here with you.
