Ikea Vacations in a Box - Feet Up in the Maldives!
In a season where international travel has become impossible due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Swedish big box retailer, IKEA is now selling trips as part of a “vacation-in-a-box” package aimed to help break up the boredom of many enthusiastic travellers, who miss the thrills of travel and the opportunity to explore new places. The boxes come in four varieties, Paris, Cappadocia, Tokyo, and the Maldives, featuring home furnishings, accessories, recipes, pictures and activities to provide the best online experience for travellers, without having to pack a bag or book a ticket.
The Maldives box includes brightly colored glassware and plates as well as LED lights to decorate an outdoor space. Inside the activity pack you’ll find music suggestions such as Boduberu, the most widely known indigenous music in the Maldives. There are also instructions on how to dance the Bandiyaa Jehun, a traditional folkdance.
Travellers can set their moods with the top picks of Maldivian songs, which includes Boduberu, the most widely known indigenous music based in the Maldives that starts off with a slow beat, which eventually reaches a crescendo accompanied by lively dancing, an original that dates all the way back to the 11th century. Or take a look at the list of Maldivian films with an exquisite combination of nature documentaries and iconic Maldivian favourites.
Explore the Maldivian cuisine which originates from heavy Indian influences and revolves around three main ingredients: coconuts, fish and starches and get intrigued to try by yourself the exotic dishes of the Maldives. For a more-groovy experience, try out the Maldivian traditional folk-dance, which is only performed by young women and involves them dancing while using metal water pots as musical instruments.
Purchase this box of wonder and get the island vibes, with everything you need to recreate a beachy escape right from your home. All it needs is a little soaring of your imagination, to get everything you need to set the scene.
