Hi everyone,

I have been watching this forum for some time with a great deal of interest, I won't list my background here, its all on my profile, in short, my wife and I are in the UK and we are looking into relocating to MU. My wife has MU nationality and her parents live in Tamarin.

I would love to work in Mauritius as a designer or associated with the University in a lecturing post maybe, the thing is, in all the time I have been watching these forums, there appears to be very little in the way of professional creative industry over there...? is this a fair assumption?

I am trained to an advanced level using Solid Works, the International standard CAD operating software so could transfer my technical design skills to another sector, I keep a close eye on the investment comission and gather that there is a lot of new building development in MU at the moment, do you think there would be opportunity to use my skills in an architectural context maybe...?

So many questions I know! apologies for that, I guess as much as anything, I simply wanted to make contact and hopefully make some friends, learn a little and maybe some useful contacts for when we eventually take the plunge!

Julien, may I say "Merci" for your commitment in setting up this forum, it is a credit to you and all the other ex-pats who post here regularly, very informative and encouraging when looking for information from overseas.

Thanks )
