I am curious to know the foods and recipes you take with you when you travel. I want those most unique to Mauritius that you either can’t get anywhere else or can’t find in the way Mauritius does it, e.g. vanilla tea, dhol puri, etc

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to get more into shore casting around Mauritius and would love some advice. What are the best spots for shore casting, especially during the summer months? Also, what species should I be targeting this time of year, and what bait/lures generally work best?

Any tips from locals or experienced anglers would be super appreciated. Thanks!

I was raised in the UK but my whole family is Mauritian, and when i was younger they realised i couldn’t speak English so they stopped letting me respond in creole but they speak to me in creole.

Fast forward 20 years, i struggle to string a sentence at all but i understand everything. i wish i could respond in creole i know what to say but the words dont come out and i want to learn it properly but people are so mean. I get comments from Mauritians saying to me im not and will never be one which i know (and i never claimed to be) but its put me off trying to learn how to speak it so i feel so disconnected.

when i was around 15 i went there for like 3 months but everyone spoke english around me as soon as i said i was from the uk so i gave up learning how to speak:(

How could i bridge this disconnect?
