I got my bags back on a roll heading out there and I'm ready to go looking real good

in my passport photo.

Amateur Traveler episode 563. Today the Amateur Traveler talks about beautiful white

sand beaches, granite boulders, sea turtles and giant tortoises, diving and in general tropical paradise as we go to the

Seychelles in the Indian Ocean.

Welcome to the amateur traveler. I'm your host Chris Christensen. And now let's hear about

the Seychelles. I'd like to welcome back to the show Jennifer Dombrowski who's coming to us from Lux Adventure

Traveler.com and come back to the show.

She's been on the show twice before by our count.

This time she's come back to talk about the Seychelles.

Jennifer welcome back to the show.

Thanks Chris, it's good to be back.

And I have to pause every time I go to see where we're going to talk about

because you were on last time talking about

about the Maldives, which are also a tropical island destination in the Indian Ocean.

So this seems to be what you're specializing in for amateur child just recently. Not to mention the time we talked

about your current hometown of Bordeaux. It's early in the morning here for me.

You must excuse me.

So why should someone go to the Seychelles?

The Seychelles is a really interesting destination and I think a lot of times people that do know about the Seychelles and sort of know where it is in the Indian

Ocean tend to group it together with Maldives and Mauritius for the fact that all of these destinations are really

known for stupendously gorgeous beaches and that's absolutely true but the Seychelles has a lot of unique things that I discovered on our trip and so much more beyond the beach.
