Underwater Proposal Maldives

On the 20th of April, when Frank, Hanna, Markus, Jonas, Tessa, Wolfgang, Sonia and our videographer Julia headed out to the ‘Untouched East’, there was 1 diver  in the group not fully aware of the plans for the day…

Wolfgang, who has visited us here on Kuredu 10 times, wanted to propose to his long term girlfriend Sonia.  Wolfgang had planned to propose to Sonia during their first dive on MuDa Thila.  With the element of surprise being critical to the event,  Frank had to convince Sonia to swim away from her buddy so that he could get ready prepared banner set up for the big question.
