We've just flown from the UK to Male, it took us 24 hours to get here, so, it's already been a very, very long travel day." She added: "But we still need to get to our hotel which is on one of the local islands. Me and my friend Tasha found out that if you stay on the local islands in the Maldives instead of a resort island it is far, far more affordable.
