However, the struggle was real to get some full-body shots, as she revealed in attempting timed shots.

“Yung nagpakapagod kang tumakbo para mahabol mo ang 5 secs countdown. Emote ka agad. Ending. Malabo rin,” she shared candidly.

(You tire from running to reach the five-second countdown. Emote straight away. In the end, it’s still blurry.)

But she also had some successful shots despite the hiccups.

Highlights from the trip include a dip into the ocean and exploring it among various types of fish and sharks.

She eventually found someone to snap her pictures, but there was a catch.

“Nakahanap ka nga ng mag picture sayo pero may pa-couple naman sa likod mo. Paano?” she bemoaned. (You find someone who can take your picture, but there’s a couple behind you. How?)

Still, there were no regrets, as the actress appeared refreshed from her vacation. “Pangako Maldives. Babalik ako (I promise Maldives. I’ll be back),” she said. JB
