Hi everyone,

I have just moved to Mauritius to begin a new job and I'm excited to discover the island and meet new friends here

I'm from the UK and have relocated from Dubai on my own, I'm in my 40s. I will be working in the East (Beau Champ) I'm active, love nature and being outdoors... saying that I don't want to wind up somewhere super isolated or closed off and so proximity to community, cafes, amenities etc etc is important to me.

Your advice & experiences gratefully received...

Thank you thank you

Hi, I don't live over there but just came back from vacation, driving around the whole island, my feeling is that you will be in the wrong side of the island for all that you need! for outdoors&nature it will be great but for all the rest it will be difficult... hoping I'm wrong!
