I started with wondering if its pronounced as “sea-shells” or something more French sounding. Once I started looking at the pictures, the name didn’t matter. Seychelles in not the only place in the world with white sand beaches and pristine blue waters. It is, however, one of the very few that has all sorts of beaches – lagoons, little waves, big waves, rocky and anything … Continue reading Seychelles – A beach for everyone!

I am an engineer by training and deep interest, though not by profession. One affect of that training is that I look for a scientific explanation for everything.
