  • You will be greeted by sugarcane fields all over this island country. After all, sugarcane is closely linked to the history, economy and the migrant population in Mauritius. There's a sugar museum called L'Aventure du Sucre that is a must visit to understand the role sugarcane had to play in building Mauritius to what it is today. Sugarcane farming also feeds the rum industry in Mauritius. Even the hotel tea/coffee stations had some 4 varieties of sugar to choose from. It was mandatory to pose in the midst of this beautiful crop of sugarcane. . . πŸ“ΈThe official photographer of our #discovermauritius May 2019 group @thatdoggonelady πŸ˜ƒ
  • My last morning in Mauritius and I won’t forget these stunning ocean views and skies in a hurry. . I was on a video call with my son from the beach showing him the magic unfolding in the sky and its reflection on the clear waters and he said β€œMummy, that’s like Aurora Borealis in the waterβ€πŸ˜ . The second photo was taken just minutes after the first one. . @interconmauritius @mtpaindia #discovermauritius
  • Any place I visit, markets are a must go for me. The Central Market in Port Louis did not disappoint. Established in around 1830s soon after the migrant indentured labourers started coming over to Mauritius, this market has fresh produce, meats, spices and a wide range of souvenirs to take back home. . * in these photos- -Roselle flowers which they use for achaar and also jams -Soup mix- pumpkin, carrot, celery and cabbage -Eggplant -Chow chow/chayote squash that they call Christophene and use extensively -Watercress -Pumpkins -Patty pan squash -Cabbage --Variety of chillies (piment) -Rocket chillies . @mtpaindia #disvovermauritius
  • You have the sea, the sky, a glorious sunrise and you think it's just perfect. And then nature tops it with a rainbow as if to say, here I just wanted to make your morning even more special. #gratitude 🌸🌸🌸 . Photo credit: @pikturenama . . #discovermauritius with @mtpaindia
  • Lunch at the restaurant within the sugar museum l'aventure du sucre - their dessert Chocolate Fondant alone is said to be worth traveling to this restaurant. It was a truly decadent dessert. The main was an Indian thali which looked better than it tasted. . This is a good attraction for the whole family with a large museum built in the earstwhile Beau Plan factory, the restaurant, a store where you can buy 12 kinds of sugar and the New Grove rum store. Swipe to see all the photos. . #STxMRU #saffrontrail #discovermauritius
  • Woke up at 5 this morning, did a video call with my son, told him about my plans for the day. Brewed a cup of coffee in the room and then went out to watch the sky colours at sunrise. A yoga session with the teacher at the hotel facing the sea and the blue skies followed by breakfast. I had an avocado on toast and a flat white. The avo toast had my fav kinda topping ie toasted seeds and also a bit of sting from the chilli oil πŸ˜‹ This is at The Restaurant at Salt of Palmar @saltresorts #wearesalt . Now we are off to explore some parts of Mauritius. Stay tuned to my stories for the sightseeing updates 🌞🌞🌞 . I'm on this trip with @mtpaindia to #discovermauritius #STxMRU

Our day one is at the stunning boutique hotel called Salt of Palmar @saltresorts #wearesalt which is so in tune with principles of sustainability and near zero plastic usage in the property. .
