The premier treatment ends alas at the airport gate as we join our fellow peasants in economy. I muse over the fact that people are prepared to pay huge amounts of money (but hey they subsidise my travel) to sit in a slightly more comfy part of the ...
A vacation from our travels!
... life. It was just us and a large group of italians staying there. We found this odd until we realized that the entire Seychelles islands were fully booked by Italians! It felt like we were in Capri! La cuvette is not really near any beaches but that ...
Kerala might be God's own country, but He lives in
ON Christmas afternoon M and I landed in the Seychelles International Airport situated on Mahé island, on the Emirates flight from Dubai. The flight was as uneventful as possible except for the ocean that was right beside the runway which made for one ...

'I DON'T BELIEVE IT' It's super early as I had to drop the other one at work and I'd hoped to have a swim while I waited for the tyre place to open but bad planning, it ain't open. Instead, I wander around the 2km running track, in normal clothes and a ...
And an interview!
... pays western compared with local salaries is nigh impossible, this I know, and what I was offered is very good competitively in Seychelles. I explained though, that with my skills I'd be looking for more but he wouldn't budge. Being a proud (or ...
The Most Beautiful Place on Earth
We again snorkelled back to our boat for the short trip to Coco Island. 10 minutes after leaving Two Sisters we arrived @ Coco. Low tide and absolute paradise for snorkeling (see pictures). We all dived into the water like we had never seen water or fish ...

A Day of Firsts
Today is Mom and Dad's 21st anniversary (a first). We gave them coffee in bed. We flew to Bird Island in a small transport polane. It had two seats per row (no aisle). It sat 16 people, including the pilot, and was very noisy. The hotel on Bird ...
Where are the leaks..there and there and there

Rear end troubles
Leaving behind our cold water woes, we headed for Beau Vallon for an exciting evening in our Seychelles calendar – an invite to someone's house, where I’d been the person invited. Nothing to do with school whatsoever – released from the ...
All in a morning’s work in the Seychelles
... The washing machine was also fixed for a problem we didn't even know it had, it having overflowed while we were out. So for the second time in 24 hours, I stuck it to RoSPA and spread water around the house with the mop - extreme living in the Seychelles. ...
Checking out Ning software and oops I seem to have
... with time to spare and no-one to speak to (intro violins...), I suddenly found myself setting up a dummy site called Social Seychelles. I didn’t even struggle over the name (this being a very onerous and important task I feel – I mean while ...
Lovely Seychelles!

More of Mahe
Today, we rented a car and spent a lot of time doing errands (cashing checks, dealing with the travel agent). At one point, we saw ambulences and police going to the airport; we later learned it was a drill (whew). We also went to the same beach as ...
SocialSeychelles.ning.com hosting debacle

A proper meeting!
Following my bumping into the man in SA, I've been invited to a meeting woohoo! I pack my bag with a notepad, two pens and a transparent A4 pocket - if I'd had a shirt with pockets I sooo would have popped my biros in there. Whitehall it isn't, but still ...
Paradise Found
Hi All, Well where do we start? Our flight was typically frustrating and reminded me lot of the army days "hurry up and wait"! We did however board on time and our Captain then informed us that due to the usuall SA airports efficiency they had packed ...

... in a custody battle, I'm handed off from one party to the other in car park of 'Freshcuts butchers', high glamour in the Seychelles, as I'm way too chicken (boom boom) to drive the hills of La Misere, especially not knowing where I'm going. I feel guilty ...
Radio silence from Air Seychelles
