#MotherSeaTour Day 5 - Seychelles

The right ocean at last! These are the closest islands to my fictitious one in #MotherSea, so the flora & fauna are similar. Seychelles taught me a hard lesson on coral reef death & restoration, but introduced me to Creole language & culture, and the reality behind the curated tourist tropical paradise photos.

#MotherSeaTour Day 5 - Seychelles

Fav folklore – An eejit Brit in the 1800’s decided the coco de mer was the original forbidden fruit bc it looks like a bum! Someone away from home too long methinks?🍑

Fav experience – Meeting giant tortoises? Or giant fruit bats squabbling in the tree above us as we ate our dinner in the dark (hint: #MotherSea may contain bats) 2/2
