What to expect

Coming episodes

1

The last wild places — conservation in Mauritius with the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation

How a small island nation is fighting back from the brink to restore its extraordinary endemic wildlife — the pink pigeon, the echo parakeet, and what almost became extinct forever.

2

From London to Le Morne — why we traded everything for island life

A conversation with a British couple who left careers, mortgages, and the M25 for a villa on the south-west coast. What nobody tells you, what you have to experience yourself, and whether they would do it all again.

3

The dodo, the Dutch and the making of Mauritius — a history of the island with Dr Vijaya Teelock

The extraordinary history of an island that was uninhabited until the 16th century and became one of the most culturally complex places on earth. Colonisation, slavery, indentured labour, and independence.
