The Seychelles

If you are working hard and all you wanna gain is relaxation then you will find yourself in paradise once you set foot on one of the islands. We spent most of our time on "La Digue", the 3rd "biggest" island of the Seychelles. Transports are either going by foot, bicycle or sometimes by oxcart. The only noise that you will hear is the sound of the ocean.
Bouldering wasn´t that what we hoped to be but if you really want to climb, only then you will find bouldering. Most of the time I found a good looking line, the landing was terrible, impossible to spot, even if you would have more spotters and pads. To sum up: the landing is horrible, the rock fragile and the temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius with humidity from the rainforest. The boulders look good, on pictures. That´s it.
And so I went fishing, that was successful and fun because I never knew what I was catching next ... trompetfish again or stingray this time? What else? Lonely beaches, nice snorkeling, turtles are as common and usual in the sea as on the island. And every day fresh fish and other seafood. Another unnecesarry information: the male landturtle has a concave belly otherwise it could not breed with the female! nice ha ;).
