Background: Discovered by the Portuguese in 1505, Mauritius was subsequently held by the Dutch, French, and British before independence was attained in 1968. A stable democracy with regular free elections and a positive human rights record, the country has attracted considerable foreign investment and has earned one of Africa's highest per capita incomes. Recent poor weather and declining sugar prices have slowed economic growth, leading to some protests over standards of living in the Creole community.

Morocco adventure Africa
Hello all, again een blog entry uit Afrika maar deze keer wel een stevig stuk noordelijker, in Marocco! Met een hoop opgespaard 45de verlof en omdat simpelweg thuiszitten niet in mijn kraam past heb ik een paar dagen terug voor geen geld een last minute vlucht geboekt naar Casablanca, klinkt als het Benidorm van Marokko. Samen met Anouk nog even romantisch genieten in de file richting Charleroi en vanaf dan zat ik al in Marokko: Deze vluchten zijn de reden waarom er een limiet staat op de bagage die je mag meenemen op een vlucht. Iedereen heeft hier zijn kleerkast letterlijk [View Full Entry]

We were in Mauritius today. For anyone who's not sure (and I had absolutely no idea when I first saw the itinerary change), Mauritius is an island off the coast of Madagascar and is basically half way between South Africa and India. I had some mixed feelings about my experience in Mauritius, but overall the country is beautiful, and I'm very glad we got to go. Mostly I guess I just wish we had more time there, because no one would have gotten so upset if we were there for another day. Oh well though. So in the morning we left [View Full Entry]

como estan ustedes? yo de vuelta de Ciudad del Cabo. Han pasado cinco meses desde mi primera visita al pais del ganado y me voy a quedar un ratito en Namibia para trabajar un poco, no demasiado. Ya he hecho mis pinitos con algunos turistas gabachos de forma ilegal pero desde el viernes -despues de mucho papeleo y mucho mamoneo- tengo el permiso de trabajo como guia turistico! La visita a Sudafrica fue un tanto fugaz pero muy divertida. En Ciudad del Cabo nos reunimos un grupete de gente que conocimos por el camino, de aqui y de alla, gente muy [View Full Entry]

Well, we made it safe and sound out of Africa. Boy, what a trip so far. We are now on the island of Mauritius -- it's beautiful. Weather is so-so. Cloudy, but a lot of sun too. We were thoroughly impressed with Africa. Friendly people -- at least where we were -- who were anxious to tell us about their lives. And the wildlife....WOW! It must be like what Lewis and Clark experienced when they travelled in North America 200 years ago. Herds and herds of animals and a lot of different species. The last day, we saw a Leopard and [View Full Entry]

Hello from Mauritius! We'll warn you that this blog might not be as exciting as usual since we spent the week on the beach in Mauritius and it was a "vacation from the vacation". Mauritius? Most of you probably haven't ever heard about Mauritius, like us, when our travel agent told us that we would have a lay over there on our way to Asia. But we looked it up and it is a small island in the Indian Ocean east of Madagascar and we figured why not spend a week there because when else would we get to go to [View Full Entry]

Mauritius is an island off the coast of Madagascar of which Mark Twain has said: "you gather the idea that Mauritius was made first, and then heaven; and that heaven was copied after Mauritius." It lives up to it's illustrious reputation. We chose to stay, twice, at the Hilton Spa Resort, and our stays there were pure magic. Torch Lighting Ceremony We arrived in the afternoon, and a gong was rung by the hotel staff upon our entry, as is the tradition with all guests, to the spectacular architecture of gardens, waters, and lounges. It was soon dusk, and as night [View Full Entry]
