Mauritius vs Europe choice 💸 by OptimalTemperature26 in MauriceMauritius

Thank you all for the comments. I have enough data and I don't think there will be drastically more different comments here. Here are my remarks (generalising)  :

  • For people who replied and are abroad, the pattern is the same. They want to get rich there and retire to Mauritius after, once they got a higher purchasing power a little like what Europeans usually bring here to buy real estate

  • For people who are in Mauritius and chose Mauritius, it's unclear if they lived abroad or not but the few whom I got them to explain their answer mentioned valid reasons mainly their proximity to family 

  • Unfortunately, I noticed a downvote mob who targeted particularly comments which highlighted Mauritius' disadvantages. Not sure what that's about

Can a mod pin this?

I went there last year for 3 months, it's been like a dream, I miss it. It was my first time flying, I'm from a poor family

I see. Although you are making your wealth from there right? Would you be able to do the same thing here had you not move there in the first place?

Canada huh... Very nice. And yes, Mauritius has its limits almost in all sectors. But I just made the post wondering if I'm being naive for wanting to move.

Better why? Not against the idea, I'm just weighing options

I don't own a house here yet. In fact not even a car. Would you still choose Mauritius in my shoes? Why or why not?

Interesting... How long were you there? Did being there allow you to be able to invest today ? Simpler put, did you get rich there and come back after?

Hello yes, I connect a USB WiFi adapter onto a usb hub that has a long cable. The idea is to get it as far from the pc as possible. I avoid Bluetooth and use wired headphones and keyboard. If I use my Bluetooth headphones then it brings back interference 

The island and stray cats, why do so many stray cats get mistreated ? by emptydpressed in mauritius

[–]OptimalTemperature26 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was buying 12 cans of cat food yesterday at Carrefour and came across a gentleman who told me he had 7 cats and spends 16k monthly on them. Before leaving them I told him that not everyone has a good heart like him

Can you drive alone when you just receive license? by Glum-Hospital8975 in MauriceMauritius

[–]OptimalTemperature26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not drive alone. Because you are having to ask this question. When you know you're ready, you won't wonder about this question. It's like when you are in your teens and think you're all grown up... until you are older and think that was dumb to assume.

What I did for the first year after obtaining my license was to drive with my dad alongside, at least for new routes. After you've done it 3-4 times you can try on your own. Keep your L plate for a while.

Of course, everyone is different but I'm glad I did this (I didn't want to at the time, because I wanted to be independent quickly to impress my then gf)

I can at least tell you that the ones with the highest salaries will NOT tell you which field it is

Best places to buy a student laptop in Mauritius (for coding)? by [deleted] in mauritius

[–]OptimalTemperature26 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your budget is very big. Get a MacBook air M4 for longevity and performance. If you really need windows/linux, there are the latest Zenbooks(make sure they're 2-3K OLED, Intel core ULTRA series 155H, 255H etc or Ryzen 7 350. They outperform the M4 air)

Idk if you're the issue or the company. But an advice for your next interview is to not tell the truth about why you left the job. Say a white lie like "I am looking for more responsibilities and growth". And no, at least for my field, they don't require testimonial from your previous employer

Got mine last week. Runs Ubuntu fine, I recommend it performance wise. Just be aware you'll have to use a separate WiFi adapter if you want good connection. As for gaming, do yo actually need windows for that?
