Never leave home without lip balm/chap stick/Vaseline, tissue, a Visa card, a writing utensil, and some form of credible ID.

Mauritian hospitality is like no other; Mauritians are extremely polite and welcoming. The seafood is undoubtedly fresh and awesome! The multicultural amalgam of the island's heritage really stands out. Just turn on the radio.

If you go to Mauritius, DO go on a catamaran & snorkel/scuba dive. The island is tiny, but there is so much to do; I didn't realise it is a popular honeymoon destination so...go with a friend or something- indie's are looked at with great confusion.
