Learning on Diversity from Rainbow Country Mauritius

(Read in 🇬🇧English 🇯🇵日本語 🇪🇸Español 🇫🇷Français 🇧🇷Português)

“Oh, you lived in a resort country!”

That was the typical misunderstanding I kept hearing when I said I lived in Mauritania since 2018, as many people thought it was MAURItius, a country also known as “rainbow country” for its diversity.

And after years of this MAURI*** dichotomy in mind, I finally visited Mauritius, which was truly amazing. “God created Mauritius first, and then created heaven in imitation of Mauritius” as Mark Twain, author of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, put it, Mauritius is full of charm. It was not only nice resort, but it also lived with diversity which I believe is a key to the better world to embrace the difference (without that, we might keep having wars and conflicts).

In this post, I would like to share some of the tastes of Mauritius through online info and what I experienced (not available online and several highlight collage photos!), hoping this can contribute to promoting Mauritius and diversity.

WHY

First of all, why promoting diversity?

Simply put, through diversity, you experience new world, and learn and grow.
