... “Sitting in a taxi 🚕 this morning in a very drab and deceptively cold London, the driver (presumably also noticing the traffic and roadworks from every angle) says to me, "The thing is, life is too short to spend in traffic in the cold..I'm just so bored of wearing shoes, you know?". With one swift glance around the tide of suits walking past in absolute formation, I know exactly. 👩‍💼👨‍💼🙋🏻‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 💙Azura is the kind of place you see in your dreams, if that dream is you, in paradise, with a piña colada. (Feel free to swap out the cocktail for your preference). 🍸🍹 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It is no secret that I am afraid of the sea.... well, the sharks 🦈and giant fish 🐋that are in it. Therefore, "apprehensive" seems like an under qualified word as I head out towards the boat in a cold sweat 😰chanting the mantra "Fish are Friends, Fish are Friends" 🐠🐟🐡.I am assured that in fact that the sharks are "vegetarian", 🍃and "Everything will be fine!" which are words that are as much use to me as a chocolate teapot as I internally process the idea of being ingested a la Jonah and the Whale style.. 🐳 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Fast forward 30 minutes.... I am a changed woman. Carlos (aka my knight in shining neoprene) holds my hand, THE ENTIRE time and guides me through the coral, the crystal clear waters and the most incredible fish (not sharks) I have ever seen. Sea Turtles🐢, schools of Parrot Fish, 50+ Angel fish, the kind of marine life that make you say "wow" while underwater. (Not smart). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Well? ... Just call me Jaquis Custeau and expect a sequel to Blue Planet 2 💙by yours truly in the coming months.”🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you want more of this chat (and some photos that make up for it)... click on the link in bio. 💋 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ••••• #peoplescreative #sheexplores #imatraveler #surf #palmtrees #dametraveler #mozambique #sidewalkerdaily #travelgirl #acolorstory #darlingescapes #luxuryworldtraveler #beachesnresorts #luxurytravel #prettylittleinspo #motivation #tweegram #discoverafrica #africatravel #africa #goodmorning #igers #liveauthentic #babeswhowander #wearetravelgirls #exploretocreate #explorerbabes #girlsthatwander #sheisnotlost #naturephotography

Mozey Hideouts & Messy Hair. My dream afternoon, any afternoon. 🇲🇿 Spoiler Alert: this is one of the places that @azuraretreats set up a 🌺 cabana for one of our surprise private meals.

Dune Day (Aka Bambi-trotting on sand as hot as the sun on bare feet👌☄️...
