Common misconceptions and clichés about life in the Seychelles

Before our move here, I did extensive research on the internet and most of it proved to be lies. Stories of other expats were biased too.
The biggest misconception being that there was no good chocolate or red meat or alcohol on the island. And that toilet paper and washing powder could run out any moment and not be imported for months. And that local people walking in the road after work caused traffic congestion.
Hahahahaha!
It is now six years later and the quality and availability of consumables became better and better and the traffic congestion got worse (no pedestrians at fault...just too many cars)
