Hello everyone,
What are the best ways you've found for keeping in touch with friends and family back home while living in Mauritius? How frequently do you stay in touch with loved ones?
Are there local equivalents to common instant messaging and online video calling services that you prefer or are more widely used?
If there is a sizeable time difference, how do you manage this?
Do you make international phone calls from a landline or mobile phone from Mauritius? What do you think of the cost?
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Priscilla
