Paradise Promised?

Leaving it all behind – from London to the Seychelles

Me

Mancunian by birth, Londoner through occupation and traveller for distraction, I left UK shores, MBA studies and communications consultancy behind to play the role of dutiful wife while the other one carved a niche for himself in the international schools market; first (and perhaps only) stop – the Seychelles. According to many the Seychelles are paradise itself, as the Lonely Planet guide remarks ‘push open your travel agent’s door and book your ticket to paradise’. This blog is about my experience of paradise, of living in the world’s smallest capital and was well frankly something to keep me occupied – I hope you’ll like it.

    Thanks for keeping us so well informed – we love to read about other peoples adventures and have a laugh at your exploits although I am quite glad I don’t know about them at the time. We are looking forward to the next episode.

    Hilarious stuff! Reminds me of the time MTF and I spent 44 hours on the “express” from Bangalore to Dehli. Lonely Planet might be interested in your comments….

    Cheers
