Now my ideal vacation line is Baasha. They call Baasha small Maldives. It’s beautiful like Maldives and cheaper than Maldives. It’s easily that you just want pay some money than you can get the visa. Baasha is a island so it’s famous for the seafood and the seafood is cheap so you can enjoy the seafood and don’t worry about the price. You just want pay for 3,000RMB and you can get a nice journey. If you think the hotel don’t want very good it just can sleep is ok and the plan don’t want nice service,comfortable seat and nice take off time. You may be just want pay for 2,000RMB and you can get a journey. In Baasha you can diving,surfing and do everything about the sea. The import reason I choice Baasha is cheap. My mother can’t give me money for my travel and 3,000RMB is ok if I work hard and don’t buy a mess I can save money maybe for 3 months.
