The Maldives is a beautiful archipelago which sits in the Indian ocean, with spectacular nature, beaches and islands. Its pristine islands are one of the countries proudest and most beautiful assets. Azure-blue, crystal clear water and coral reefs teeming with fish visible just below the surface of the water are trademarks of the nation.
Applying to work in this tropical nation will take you on a journey seeing breathtakingly remote islands. The locals are extremely friendly and provide a warm welcome to all visitors and in your free time you can see some really spectacular locations.
Imagine waking up to beautiful white sandy beaches and sparkling tropical lagoons fringed with coconut palms. It is undeniably tempting to plunge into the ocean on a daily basis – this really does beat a normal commute for a 9-5 mundane career.
