Exploring Exotic French Sand

Journey through Mauritius

New Year’s 2003 and we were thousands of miles away on an island I have not heard about until only recently. Not even sure how it first came on the radar, especially given we had not been to Hawaii yet. Mauritius is beautiful, with world class accommodations and spectacular beaches. I am told the Seychelles have better beaches. At the time, however, I had just gotten back into international travel post Sept 11 and had been incredibly busy with work back in New York. I wanted to be spoiled. Subsequent to this trip, David and I went to Hawaii a few times and I would say that, dollar for dollar, I would choose Hawaii over Mauritius. A lot closer and just as if not more beautiful. That said, it was great to find this little country few people have heard of and even fewer have visited.

The below photos are some of our favorites. It is actually a bit sad to post them as I looked so much younger then![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_raw_html]

It’s not about us. It’s about them.

I’ve said this so many times it’s getting old, but some people just don’t seem to listen—and maybe, if I’m honest, I don’t always take my own advice either. Here it is: it really doesn’t matter what you said, how you said it, or what you intended. What matters, if you truly care about the other person, is how they felt.
