A tale of island getaways

Later, I head to the Mission Ruins of Venn's Town, which was a boarding school for the children of slaves freed by the British in the 19th century. It is on the top of a mountain.

The blue sky and the white thick clouds above, together with the green mountains and the Indian Ocean, are enduring memories of my trip to Seychelles.

I also enjoy strolling along the peaceful streets of Victoria, enjoying its old colonial architecture and the hospitality of local residents.

I get to see different spices and fruits in the markets and rub shoulders with the locals.

Mahe island also boasts of many picturesque beaches, surrounded by expensive resorts and reasonably priced self-catering accommodation.
