Following a pretty hectic 5 months on the road, we thought we needed a bit of a mini-holiday, so took ourselves off to the Seychelle Islands for a week.
We didn’t do a great deal (that was the point), unless you count ambling to nearby beaches or rocking-up at the nearest beach bar for a cold beer or cocktail. So no lengthy rambling on for this post. We’ll just let the pictures do the talking…..

Not surprisingly, we’re feeling somewhat more relaxed now…. Probably a good job, as we’ve now got a full-on stint in Russia for a month on the Trans-Siberian railway (hopefully) !

Looks so relaxing. The rocks are very unusual. Just enjoy your time doing nothing.. take care. XX
This is place is famous for it’s peculiar rocks and lovely beaches. Not much else to do mind, which on this occasion was good….

Looks like some well deserved downtime and so lovely to actually see Helen in some of the photos, just need to see Simon too .
I’m so happy to be following you on your adventures (you are both much braver than I am especially those earlier scary roads). X.

Helen’s a bit more photogenic than I am. Much better that I’m behind the camera…
Looks beautiful and you deserved a “holiday” after various challenges over the last few months travelling. Hope you both enjoyed relaxing xx
Yes, it’s been great just chilling out. Time for getting stuck back in now though….
Looks beautiful, enjoy the rest. I get exhausted reading your posts so definitely needed!
A needed rest for sure. Keen to get going again now though…!!
Simply fabulous and deserved xx
Yes it wasn’t so bad…..
I think that’s definitely a well deserved bit of luxury. Well done, enjoy the cocktails xx
We did!
Looks so beautiful and very Zen. 😊
It was indeed. Seems like an age ago already….
I am always behind everyone else on these, speaking of behinds, interesting rocks!!!
Beautiful place more like my kind of holiday.
Sent a message hope she gets it but Happy Birthday Helen x
Yes everywhere you go in the Seychelles things tend to look like an arse or occasionally the ‘front of a lady’ let’s say…
Birthday message very happily received!!
