Wish I was here…

In case you didn’t know, I am meant to be climbing up the side of a volcano in the Indian Ocean right now.

But sadly a kidney infection left grounded and I was unable to fly out to Reunion and LUX* resorts yesterday with 4 other fabulous SA bloggers. Despite my serious FOMO, I thought I’d still publish the stories I had planned to do while I was there. This way you’ll still get a week of travel tips and island beauty, and I’ll (hopefully) feel a little less sorry for myself. Sniff.

Next week I’ll be posting an island and travel-themed story each day, so keep an eye out for them.

I am so upset that I’m not staying at the breathtaking LUX* Ile de la Reunion and LUX* Belle Mare in Mauritius for the next week.

Beside both these (and the other resorts 3 in the group) being world class in luxury, service and setting, they are also carbon neutral! They pay an offsetting fee, working in collaboration with ImapctChoice, to the Sofala Community Carbon Project in central Mozambique (where agro-forestry is being implemented and locals being educated about conservation).

Learn more about LUX* and their incredible resorts here.

PS. I am determined to get out there at some stage, so there WILL be a full travel post series about LUX* in the near future.
