Trip to Rodrigues Island (Trailer)

It was the first time I ever boarded a plane and flew with it. It was with Air Mauritius flying to Rodrigues and back. Rodrigues is about the half the size of Savanne district of Mauritius; Rodrigues is 108 km2 while Savanne district is 244.8 km2

The first thing to put in my luggage was my mobile charger: the adapter and the USB cable.

Arriving at the airport, you get a trolley to put your luggage on. Interesting fact about it is that you need to push on the handle for it to move. If not, it will be on “brake mode” which is very handy in case you just leave the trolley unattended or doing a little descent with it.

Pictures worth more than thousand words…

It was raining a lot. But the plane flies above the clouds so i could enjoy the sun and work on my tan a bit :3

What i like:
– No long loading time like League of Legends
– Graphics are nice and doesn’t lag at all. The screenshots above were taken with standard quality. I’m currently downloading the HD assets.

Dislikes:
– Games are short: around 7 – 15 minutes.
– No respawn when dead.
– Some tanks have to be bought with “real money”
– Experience is very slow to earn to be able to do more in-game “researches”.
– Not available on Linux

MyT’s LaFibre is a Tortoise

Companies make you stay 9hours in their offices: 8 hours work, 1 hour lunch break. On top of that, 3 hours lost in bus travel. You want to relax a bit when you return home, the Internet just sucks.

We pay fortunes per month to ISPs in Mauritius for a service like this? Lot’s of people are complaining about Emtel’s Airbox is not delivering the promised speed on Facebook. Well, MyT’s LaFibre is a pain too after the 50GB limit has been reached.

Orange promises a better life with them. The joke.

Showkutally Soodhun is creating your dream jobs: Strippers, servants, cleaners. Apply now!

Do you like to strip and dance naked to entertain guests? Clean bedsheets after people had sex on it? Serve people their drinks and carry luggages? Dictator Showkutally Soodhun has made your dreams come true.

He says he’ll be creating thousands of jobs by giving his petit-copain Currimjee la Cambuse beach to build a hotel.

He says we are only allowed to protest for pundit Sungkur restaurant which we can say “ti-poisson”. But when hotels take kilometers of our beaches, then we should shut the fuck up. [1]

Is this the economic miracle we were promised? Creating jobs with pay like Rs 2000 per month a “job” to you? Or we were expecting some sort of entrepreneurship culture and stuffs? What is different now under your rule Anerood Jugnauht? You are just following how Navin used to rule and create jobs by selling Mauritius.

Hey “L’alliance lepep”, we voted you. You listen to what WE want. We don’t want such jobs nor we want to sell our beaches.
