Mauritius the Island of my dream holidays
78Mauritius, the Island of my dreams
I watched a film 'Blue Lagoon' with Brooke Shields and Christopher Atkins, when I was a little boy. I also watched many other films, which included magic scenery of tropical islands, wild tropical rain forests, colorful wild animals and plants, beautiful and rich coral reefs, crystal clear water, always laughing local inhabitants.
I have created many such heavenly, tropical retreats in my mind (imagination) for the times, when I was passing through many real problems of modern hectic and very demanding life style, which sometimes doesn't allow you even to breath properly. These little oasis of tranquility have been often helping me to continue my life-journey, even though, the situation had been very critical and even live threatening, sometimes.
I could switch to the silence of such moments or to the bird singing backgrounds of warm tropical gardens in my mind, almost instantly, and I am starting 'to suck new life energy', motivation, joy to change my current bad mood into something much more positive and feel-good.
Mauritius was and still is the Island of my dreams. There, I'd spent my best holidays ever, and I am going to regularly return to that Exotic Tropical Miracle in Indian Ocean for the rest of my life.
Just a thought about warm, green, charming Mauritius provides me with new, fresh energy and power, which I need in the big City of London to stay cool, calm, always smiling and ever inspiring to people around me, in-spite of traffic congestion everywhere, bad air, bad weather, crime and gang culture. I do dream about Mauritius!
Early Breakfast surrounded with wonderful birds
My Son loved early breakfasts surrounded by colorful birds
My son was 1.5 years old, when our little family visited Mauritius for the first time. He simply loved it. Wonderful warm water of Indian ocean, sunny, sandy beaches, many colorful little birds, beautiful flowers and many palm trees. My wife was still sleeping, when I took my son to the terrace of our wonderful hotel resort to have an early breakfast. Early mornings were not crowded at all. Maybe, a person here and there and wonderful, always smiling staff, who we learnt to call by their names. It is not so easy to keep a healthy baby, full of energy to stay close to the table, but there on the terrace, little red, green, blue and other birds came very close to our table. My son was so excited, but he soon realized, that these little birds didn't stay there, if he was running towards them. He learnt to sit at his tall baby chair at the table and to admire and to laugh to these naughty little birds, who were coming closer and closer to pick rice or bread crumbs.
I could recall these happy moments as some of the most wonderful moments of my entire life. I am so very grateful to Mauritius Island to allow me to experience its real tranquility and peace.
Many, many wondeful flowers
Mauritius Tea is my favorite one
I love tea, coffee or any other drinks, really. My work has always been somehow connected to food, drinks, catering, hospitality.
However, there is one sort of tea, which is my favorite one, and that is the Mauritius tea. There are amazing tea farms on the island, where tea plants are carefully nurtured, selected and finally blended and packed.
It is a strong 'black tea' - regular tea, with natural vanilla spice added. The combination gives truly amazing, velvety gentle taste. That is certainly my favorite tea and I love to add milk to make it even more 'velvety and smiling'. I've experienced there for the first time in my life, that you can really enjoy this tea throughout the day, no mater the weather temperature or the occasion. So many times I chose this tea, instead of any other much more exotic and bubbly drink at the tropical beach, as well.
Every day about 11am, I had a tea pot served in one of the most beautiful open terrace beach bars in Mauritius. Very old fashioned colonial style, wasn't it? Me, a lover of cold beer, drinking a hot tea on the tropical beach? Yes, I told you that Mauritius is a very special place, where things are just not the same as in the rest of the world.
There is even an official scientific study about the positive influence of Mauritius tea.
Palm Trees
Palm Trees and wild animals
My son's favorite book was a children's book about Palm trees. That book was following him almost anywhere. He had known a lot about palm trees before he visited the island for the first time at the age of 1.5years.
And again, Mauritius had been preparing another pleasant surprise for my son. There is a natural park with more than 75 different sorts of palm trees. Truly amazing garden resort, where we had spent some very nice time.
Mauritius is also a home to many interesting animal species from tinny, fast, colorful geckos to huge and gracious whales.
Mauritius and amazing food
I love Mauritian Food
You simply need to taste it! Fresh, fresh, fresh ingredients! From the most exotic sorts of fruit to the rich and numerous sea food delicacies and many, many more 'dishes to die for'. Chefs on the Mauritius island have really managed to touch me profoundly by their professional skills, which is an art. (I was a catering/hospitality professional, as well, and it was not so easy to impress me in this department, at all).
Beautiful Island of Mauritius
Sunset on Mauritius
Service of Air Mauritius was just amazing
We traveled from Venice to Paris, where we changed the plane to big, new Airbus of Air Mauritius. My personal experience with Air Mauritius staff was just amazing. Even though, we had a little kid, who was very curious, we managed to have a really pleasant flight and I need to say once more, that the girls were just fantastic. I believe, that was also the best possible introduction to the Mauritius island itself, before the real meeting.
From cold winter Europe to the warm and exotic Mauritius.
I've realized a bit later, that my first flight with Air Mauritius also meant my first direct contact with Mauritius tea - my favorite tea blend.
p.s.
It is really hard to find an outstanding Air line, these days, isn't it?
Coral Reef surrounds the Mauritius Island
Beautiful Coral Reef surrounds this little, exotic island. I was a bit deeper down there and I admired those colorful fish, crabs, shellfish and corals. Coral reef protects the island against the brutal force of the waves of Indian Ocean, and also allows very many animal and plant species to flourish all over the reef.
I was lucky to spend some hours down the reef among sunk ships and boats, where I had enjoyed beauty of colorful life forms, which are now heavily endangered by global warming and climate changes.
When I have decided to promote renewable energy sources much more intensively, I'd also had in mind all those fantastic and picturesque coral reefs around the world, who had already died, because of the very real and catastrophic effects of global warming and climate changes.

Nice hub. Thsi sounds like a refreshing place for a vacation and the photos are beautiful.
Photos are nice, but to be there in real...to smell that fresh air...to feel the warm water of Indian ocen...
Solarshingles, great hub, would love to visit Mauritius some day. Cheers.
Thanks cgull8m! It is truly a land of my dreams...the life there is much, much slower and with much proper pace. Try to get an online pen-pal (friend) from there, before you travel there and it could be even more special
I went to Hawaii as a teenager and didn't get to appreciate the place. I'd love to explore more tropical locations, too!
One day, soon you are going to travel there...don't go for a busy place...look for some oasis of peace and warmth, crystal blue/green lagoons and delicious fresh fruits
Hi, nice hub
I think Twain described it well, pure heaven !
Check out my hub at http://hubpages.com/hub/Mauritius-tourism
Yum! Sounds like a true bit of heaven here on earth. What a place to fully relax! And worlds different from London, which despite its coldish weather, is one of my favorite towns in the world!
Thank you Desert Blondie for you nice comment. Yes, Mauritius is like a heaven on earth, at least for me.
London is also truly wonderful place, with more than 300 languages and nationalities - a true melting pot of cultures. And all those old buildings, and churches, and palaces, and river Thames, and bridges, and parks, and the real Queen Elisabeth II.
Mauritius just sounds so beautiful and it sure looks like it is too!! another port of call i would love to fullfill!
:)
It is beautiful! Mauritius is a very special place, but I deliberately don't want to reveal some secrets to be even more interesting, especially in this 'politically' not so pleasant times all over the world.
Beautiful pictures! Yes, it's indeed a fascinating place.I have a friend from Mauritius who once attempted to teach me French and Kreol for a bit , but either he was too impatient or I was too slow ,lol.Their language is so sweet that a foreigner might think they are singing,lol.Someday I hope to visit him there.Thanks for the great hub!
Thanks, for your interesting experience about learning Kreol = Creole, Bluewings! Good teachers are really rare, these days, but he is your good friend... Mauritius had rich and interesting history of being conquered (used) by colonial powers of Portugal, France and finally Great Britain. It si a member of a Commonwealth, a big institution, which includes about 1.8 billion people, worldwide http://www.thecommonwealth.org/Templates/YearbookH
Beside official English language, people often speak many languages. Creole, French, Hindi and many more. Creole is the local language, which you nicely described as singing. I like it, too!
Try to keep your contacts Bluewings. There is nothing better, than being introduced to one country by local citizen. You could see so much more, than other tourists and you could really FEEL the country, much, much better. I hope, you are soon get a chance to visit this little heaven on earth, the island of Mauritius.
Thanks for the brief history of Mauritius , I will remember the spelling and yeah, we are still in touch.
Bluewings, thank you for a nice comment! Both spellings are correct, I like Kreol, as well, especially, because Mauritius has a wonderful community of many nationalities, of many religions, of many political opinions, yet they all live in peace...That is one of the secrets of Mauritius Island.
It's real pleasure to read about your memories. Is that special tea anywhere available for sale on Internet auction? I feel pre-sold to buy a tin of it ;)
Dear Charlemont, thank you! I found only this link for now, but I am sure there are many more shops selling Mauritius tea.
http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/Mauritius-Bois-Cheri-Van
Tea bags are fine, but loose tea is far the best. If you could get it, go for it. It takes just a little more efforts to brew it properly, but the taste...and the mild , smooth pleasure at the end is certainly worthwhile that.
Id never realised that Mauritius was a tropical paradise until I moved to Perth - its only a few hours flight from here and there are direct connections. Its onl my travel to do list!
All I can say is wow! It looks like something dreams are certainly made of and I loved the photos of the little birds.
You are very lucky Lissie to be so close. I simply love it, because it reminds me to so many wonderful moments, there. There is also an island Reunion very close to the Mauritius - just a half an hour flight by local air carrier. Indian ocean there is just amazing. Temperature just perfect and I haven't seen any sharks, due to huge 'spin dolphins' population, even though I am sure there have to be somewhere, but there is also a coral reef all round. Maybe, you could continue your trip from Mauritius to South Africa or there around.
DonnaLeeMason, you are so right! And those little colorful birds are especially very attractive for little kids, who are not used to so colorful naughty little 'singing friends'.
Great Hub1 I have never been to the Place but my friends say its GREAT! I wish that your wish would come true!
Chow! Bye!
Thank you for nice wishes!
nice and earthy hub. loved it. thanks for becoming my fan too
Beautiful hub you've created. I felt like I was there...the information was great and the pics are gorgeous. You sold me and I hope to go there someday. Good job.
Melanie, thank you very much for your very kind words. Mauritius is truly a very special place for anyone used to western busy life style.
I'd have to agree. A lot of time and energy went into this hub. Very high quality! Great job, solarshingles. Mauritius looks like a fantastic place to visit.
I've seen many heavenly wonderful places around this planet, and I really feel at home anywhere. I like dry, hot desert, ice cold high mountains and Alpine lakes, large forests, seaside, just name it. I don't need much and I was taught by my father how to survive in any bad conditions as a little boy. Later, I'd experienced some extremely rough conditions as a young soldier. But, I've found out that I am personally connected to Mauritius island much more than to other beautiful places and their magic Mauritius tea...oh, I could smell it...
What a lovely description with beautiful illustrations. I could not visit this small paradise yet but soon I'll be there.
Thanks, Frank! We could go together one day and take also many other friends from HubPages with, to have even more interesting and fun time, on this exotic Mauritius island.
Very nice! A good place to start planning a vacation! Great article!
Thanks Shadowmage! A very good place for a wonderful vacation, indeed.
Boy did you give me an itch to fly! I definatley enjoyed reading your hu - felt like i could live vicariously through your experiences!!!
Dear Annette, thank you for your kind words. I need to admit, that I've seen some nice places round the world, but Mauritius was my truly special one. Take time to explore, if you plan to visit it. There are also magic sailings by sailing boat, catamaran or motor boat/yacht to nearby little islands with empty, sandy beaches. Swimming with hundreds of Spin Dolphins was just amazing...and so much more. Take time and open you senses, there
Whatever made you think (and even put it in writing) that you do not WRITE WELL?! You write with passion, dedication, knowledge, personal experience, emotional investment - and you have attracted such a huge crowd of admirers! Perhaps you might feel right about sitting down and RETHINKING - taking an inventory of your talents - and WRITING could very well come close to the top of your list.
There are many ways in which one can write - but nothing beats putting on paper personal experiences deeply felt in the heart. You have shown courage before - in so many ways in your life (even though you seem not to give yourself too much credit for it) - perhaps it is time to find the courage to pursue your real talent - THE TALENT TO WRITE from the heart.
you asked for advice:
please be more ACCEPTING of yourself. you are a valuable loving person who has important things to say - and there are people who would like to know hear and read what you have to say. Your life is worth telling it as a story (i can always help you as a profesional writing consultant - if you need techniques or clearing of obstacles to creativity)
i wish you the best of luck!
Bozyslawa, thank you for your words! I am quite speechless and my eyes got wet a bit.
Hey there! I agree with Bozyslawa: You write very well, including this Hub--even though I feel the photos on this page are its true Crowning Glories (particularly the birds surrounding Early Breakfast). I'm reminded of one Christmas season perhaps 20 years ago. My parents were still with us but aging, and my two sisters suggested we three kids each write about the Ten Best Things our parents did when we were growing up.
That worked beautifully. Not once did we duplicate any story, illustrating how differently memories record supposedly similar events. But my point is this: My youngest sister, Harriet, a career R.N., sent HER stories to me to edit since she felt Big Brother (as the family's most published author) could "correct" her middling efforts. However, I could find nothing to change, not even a single bit of punctuation. Harriet writes every bit as well as either of her older siblings...but until that moment, she NEVER KNEW IT. So, now you know!
Also, before I forget: THANKS for the promotion you did for my basic website. Meant to toss you a salute yesterday, got involved in your Solar Shingles Hub, and...forgot.
Later,
Ghost32
Ghost32, thank you for all your wonderful memories. I have always though I am not artistic, I don't know to write well, I don't have a clue about design, I don't know to draw and to paint. English language is my fourth language and I am really struggling to write and to express my thoughts. I strongly wish I am going to improve my comprehension of that beautiful language, a lot.
I needed to warm up because it's cold and miserable outside today. I'm glad I saved reading your special memory hub for today because now I feel a bit warmer. Thank you for sharing your holiday.
kindest regards Zsuzsy
Zsuzsy Bee, thank you very much! It means even more from your side, my loyal Hub friend! Try to travel to some exotic location like Mauritius in your mind - try to visualize and it is going to make you feel better and warmer in a murky, cold day. Thanks, again!
Many friends have told me about the beauty of Mauritus but after reading your hub I am truely convinced! Definitely will put it on my list of trips to save up for!! Thanks for the great hub
Thank you my medical mate for your nice comment about exotic Mauritius island.
I agree the food in Mauritius is delicious, especially if you get invited to eat with the local people. Their everyday food combines exotic vegetables and spices in ways I've never tasted anywhere else. Far better than anything we tasted in the best hotel restaurants.
Dear Jan, you are so right. You couldn't say that you have experienced Mauritius, if you haven't been invited to the real home, there. (It could be very worthwhile to find an online pen-pal there, and maybe slowly build personal relationship with, long before your travel). I think, that Mauritius has taken the best food mix from many nations and balanced it in their own way.
Sound like a wonderful place for a vaction - but sounds like you wouldn't want to come back home.
You write so well!!
Karen, you are quite right, but duties call you every time to come back to work. Vijayagarwal, thank you very much.
I also enjoy tropical locations, but Polynesia is my favorite location. I enjoyed reading this hub about Mauritius and thank for including quality pictures and informative content. Excellent hub!
SweetiePie, thank you for your words. We didn't know where to travel with a little baby so we asked a friend, who was expert for the world. She had been in travels on 24/7/365 basis for more than 35 years!!! and her advice was plain and straight: Mauritius island. And she was right. However, I would really like to discover other places, such as your suggestion of Polynesia, as well.
Thanks for your hub. I like travel and I can't say I prefer one place over the other. Our good Lord has made everything wonderful on this earth, the people, the climate, the food, the flora and fauna.
I have travelled from east to west and find that when you travel to a country, you become enamoured of it. You love the sights and sounds of that country and become more tolerant of its inhabitants whether they are black, white, yellow or brown.
Each has its beauty, and you only have to open your heart to appreciate it.
I have already shortlisted Mauritius as my honemoon destination - whenever I have one. Other contenders are Bali, Venice and Maldives. :)
Stooge, thank you! I could be your guide in Venice, because I simply love it and know the place, yet I wouldn't choose the Venice for that very special event. Bali and Maldives are very exotic and tempting destinations, as well. Ask your better half to decide...they always know so much better):
I guess you are correct solar. They always are oh-so-smart when it comes to spending big bucks :) I will surely consult her whenever I have one. Sad, right now I am just shortlisting the locations in the hope that someone will fall for me soon :D
By the way, why not Venice? Because you will be around? :D
I've never been to a tropical island. You make it sound wonderful.
DonnaCSmith, thank you very much for your comment. It really means a lot to me! Tropical islands are truly very special places for us, who live in continental landscape with long and cold winters. Mauritius is only one of these tropical islands, which are surrounded by a coral reef.
That is a wonderful hub. The photos are magnificent.
Dear Janet, thank you very much for your kind comment. Yes, Mauritius island is truly magnificent and worthwhile to visit.
Have to put Mauritius Island on my travel log. Always looking for beauty & sunshine. Thanks.
Hi solarshingles,
Mauritius is a fantastic place. I visited the island twice - once on business and once enroute to Kenya on honeymoon.
If you like Mauritius, then you will love Seychelles - about 2.5 hours flight north of Mauritius.
Hello my hubber friend! I love Mauritius island and I know where the Seychelles are, however I haven't experienced them, yet. I'll take your expert advice to spend some warm and exotic time, there. Thank you.
I too see tropical islands in my fantasy vacation! I had never heard Mauritius until this Hub. Sounds beautiful :)
You´ve described it so beautifully that I´m puttin Mauritius on my list of dream destinations right away. Thanks.
Abovie, the feeling of having ability to switch to the tropical fantasy vacation in your mind is just an amazing one! It allows you, that even in the midst of the 'stress tornado' of our hectic City life, you could take a few seconds of Tropical Island's Tranquility...and to come back completely cool, again. Mauritius island is very beautiful.
Dear Lenka, it is worthwhile to meet with Mauritius in real. Maybe, try to connect to some electronic online pen-frind from Mauritius island, before you travel there. Do not be only interested in tourist mass attraction and luxurious hotel resorts, there. There are domestic people, who are special and very calm. They know the best 'secret places', local food and drinks, local customs and culture. They stay friends for life.
Solarshingles,
Mauritius? Until now I had never even heard of the island, and now because of your beautiful description of it, I must search it out. You have made it seem like such a Heaven on Earth, much like Bali Ha'i from the musical "South Pacific." It is obvious that it too "calls to you!" I bet there are beautiful coral reefs and plenty of pristine beaches for a beach party or seclusion...Sounds amazing... Water and sun... two of my favorite things.
Diana, you are so right. Water, sun, wonderful nature, wonderful people, food, drinks, local customs and culture. They have many different religions there and all of them are in very good relations, what is simply amazing experience. There is a coral reef, which protects the main island. You could only relax there or you could perform a really exciting sports or even extreme sports activities. I love this island also because we had a wonderful time with our little baby Alexander, there.
Thanks.
You made me dream again about all the places I want to visit. And I shall.
First Eagle, Thor Einar
Wow, what a gorgeous place. Thanks for posting such beautiful images.
Thanks also for your note to me from a little while back. I've been away and haven't been able to respond until now. Yes, I bet we could talk for hours on religion. I haven't studied at the Vatican, but I have spent some time in Rome, Greece and Turkey for classes. I appreciate your interest and kind words, and I look forward to reading more of your work here!
Alil, thank you for your kind words about Mauritius island and its tropical beauties. I also think, we could speak for hours about this topic.
Solarshingles--this is such a lovely personal account. I feel that having read it, I have visited Mauritius too. I especially loved your description of breakfast with your baby son and all the birds and of course I found the food descriptions making me hungry. Nice to know Air Mauritius is still making flying a good experience.
Dear Robie, you are so kind in your comment. Thank you! I have seen many beautiful places in many different countries. Mauritius island is certainly one of my best experiences, ever. I only need to think about it and all those warm and sunny memories and I feel much better. I've met truly wonderful people there. Fresh local dishes based on sea food and exotic fruit cocktails are just over the top. Air Mauritius was and still is brilliant in their services, as far as I am concerned. Thank you Robie.
An excellent hub, my friend. From how you've described the island of Mauritius, it's now become a must-go destination for me in future. Your choice and quality of photographs is commendable. Jolly good show, old chap!
Dear Terenceyap, thank you for your very kind comment about the hub of the exotic and tropical Mauritius island. This wonderful island is truly a must-go travel destination. Photos of Mauritius are very warm, colorful and tempting and they only paint the real life, there.
Great Hub Mate.
Thank you for your kind words about Mauritius island hub, mate!
Mauritius sounds absolutely beautiful! Great hub - makes me want to visit there. :-)
Thank you Priceless Sam. Yes, Mauritius is absolutely beautiful place with wonderful people, as well.
A highly detailed and evocative hub, SolarShingles - well done! Sounds as if you had a great time there - I also like your pictures. How long did it take to get there from London?
Pjdscott, thank you very much for your kind comment about the Mauritius island. Flight lasts about 11-12 hours, I really don't know exactly, because it varies a bit. I prefer to travel from Paris with Air Mauritius. We had truly a marvelous time, there.
Mauritius is a an absolute dream destination. Thanks for a sharing a great hub.
Indeed, Gss, Mauritius is a truly a dream destination to spend some refreshing and relaxing moments there, to feel beautiful sun rises and to fully enjoy amazing sun sets, as well.
You sold me.
Mauritius sounds amazing!
++ I agree, Blue Lagoon, is a good movie.
Blackbird, thanks! Mauritius is a real island of my dreams. If one is seeking a lonely tropical island without people, than Mauritius is not the right choice. They are Mauritius people, who make their island even more magic, kind, warm and interesting. Blue Lagoon is truly a wonderful movie and there are a few different versions on the market.
i am presently shopping for a honeymoon destination. I
Oyin, Mauritius could be a very nice honeymoon destination. I felt/feel so very safe and appreciated there. There is no sharks, dangerous snakes, 'big wild' spiders... I truly love it!
After reading this hub, im looking forward to the next holiday season to start, so that i could visit this amazing place. Great work on the pictures and all the information.
Rookie Expert, you won't regret if you decide to visit that magic and tropical Mauritius island and stop your time, there in your next holiday season. Forget about the wild rush of every day busy life and listen to the sound of the Indian ocean in coral bay, birds, the very moment. Try local fresh food, fresh tropical fruits and discover the secrets of Mauritius tea...you are going to start to love Mauritius, because it is truly something special...
Enjoyed reading your hub on Mauritius - a fascinating destination.
Dear Lakhsmi, thank you for your kind words. Mauritius island is truly fascinating travel and exotic holidays destination in Indian ocean.
Nice job, your efforts answered al my questions. Thanks
Thanks solarcatpain! It was so easy to present magic Mauritius island in my own humble way, even though, I know that such pearl as tropical Mauritius truly deserves better writer to address its hidden beauties by written words.
Great work on this hub! I just returned from my honeymoon last week: we went to the Turks and Caicos Islands (British West Indies) for our Honeymoon for a week. My first time in the Caribbean and wow! First time snorkling - third largest reef network in the world is a good place to learn! Maybe next time it will be time to learn scuba!
Wow, Dreamscaper, that was just a wonderful news about your beautiful honeymoon spent in the region of West Indies. Magic, warm and vibrant tropical islands are those special places on earth, where most people would love to spend at least a few days of their holidays at least once in a life time. I love Mauritius island especially for wonderful, simple, hardworking people who live there and who are capable of genuine smile and laugh, and not like in the big city, where you are pronounced strange if you say Good morning to somebody on the street or if you smile to her/him...
Mauritius holds a very special place in my heart as it was my first trip abroad...and my honeymoon destination....its a land fromthe fairy tales...and im glad some1 shares my views on it...you hve manged to beautifully express the beauty of the land....so here's hoping 4 many more beautiful hubs from u..
Dear Niharika, I am so glad to hear that we share our fond memories about exotic and magic Mauritius island, which lies far away in Indian ocean. I was traveling the world a bit, yet the Mauritius is truly my favorite travel destination pearl and family holiday resort, as well...Your beautiful memories about honeymoon at Mauritius island will certainly stay with you for good and help you to stay strong and positive, when life circumstances are not too kind.
It is so incredibly beautiful, isn't it? What I find great about your hub is how wonderfully well your words have managed to capture the spirit of the place. Mauritius should thank you for being such a great ambassador :)
If you like Mauritius, I'm sure you'll like the Maldives as well - it weaves the same kind of magical spell around you too - and yes, the great thing about these islands is that our kids have a great time there too!
Dear Shalini, thank you for your very kind words about Mauritius hub! That wonderful tropical island in Indian ocean has been truly captured my attention and I'll always mention it as my best ever holiday experience. Maldives are natural pearl, as well and I would really love to visit them, soon.
Thanks for joining my Fan club. God bless you.

Hi Ridwaan, thanks for your kind comment about the beauties of Mauritius island and its natural habitat, and especially its kind and ever smiling and very 'warm' people.
About eBay: I had a very nice shop on eBay about very rare collectors designer clothes and a perfect reputation with loads of testimonials in the past, but I closed it when eBay started to behave badly towards small shops/sellers. I will never consider to open my shop on eBay nor I will I use eBay, any more.
Very nice article. I enjoyedreading all of the comments as well.
Mauritis sounds absolutely beautiful and amazing, I to have a son and we would adore the birds and the palm trees, it is a trip that must be taken. :)
Beautiful hub, beautiful place. Thank you for all the excellent information, and especially for the excitement about traveling to such an exotic spot. Ah, the beach, sun… Sigh!
