Seychelles is the place you
have in mind when you sit in the office and dream about paradise, only
much more stunning than your imagination! But of course, paradise comes
at a price and there is not much in the way of budget accommodation and
eateries here, which is why self-catering accommodation is a popular
alternative.
This group of 115 islands, some of them granite and others coral
atolls, are located 1.600 km east of Africa, in the heart of the Indian
Ocean. The population is as diverse (European, Indian, Asian and
African) as the array of unusual birds and spectacular flora.
In the Seychelles, the gap between rich and poor is not striking. Local
residents are just as likely to be managing well-run hotels as they are
making beds. Pride in their islands is near universal and resentment
toward visitors rare.
