Promo Time For UniqueOffersSeychelles!LLC

Recently we were selected by our bankers, Associated Bank, to display our business to the viewing public at one of the bank's branches. A simple display with the Seychelles flag, a shell, and of course the Coco-de-Mer,were among some of the items on display.

"It was a pleasure for us to take up the offer", says Rosemary, Company President of UniqueOffersSeychelles!LLC, seen pictured standing to the right of a bank representative.

Thank you to Ms. Kia of Associated Bank for approaching us and to the bank itself for making available this platform to its business clients.

We received many enquiries over the 30 days that we were able to display and promote not only our business but the Seychelles Islands as well!

Radyo Bamboo Promos - An Update

'Sweet Seduction And The Third Mermaid' is a riveting tale written by Catherine Olsen.

Set in the romantic isles of the Seychelles, follow the main character 'Isabelle Harrison', who leaves London to join her husband who is the British High Commissioner in the Seychelles.

Once in Seychelles 'Isabelle' soon discovers that wives of the previous High Commissioners drowned in mysterious circumstances and are being called, "the two little mermaids".

Is her life now at risk? Will she survive her marriage or be swept away herself?

About the author:- Catherine Olsen was born in Brisbane, Australia. She lived for many years in London working as an internationally known and much published journalist whose profiles and interviews with well-known personalities of the day have been syndicated around the world. Quartet Books published her first novel, 'SongBird', just before she went to live in the Seychelles with her husband, the former president of the Seychelles whom she met when she interviewed him after a coup d'etat that deposed him.

A Stroll To A Village Shop

Seychelles is not without its modern shopping delights and supermarkets. Of course being an island nation sometimes the shops do run short. If you are in Victoria you will be able to visit Teemooljee's one of 5 'supermarkets' within the town area. Don't expect a Walmart or Sainsbury, but for the basics you will be able to find what you need. When back home I often like to take a simple stroll along the road and more often then not I come to a local village shop where I know I will be able to sample and purchase some of the local snacks. A gateau pimant with a cold cola or a fruit juice and a local sweet cake to be had. With my purchase made I can make my way again along my little stroll. There is something special about being able to do this still in this day and age. No bulk buying here. Just buying what you need for the day or the night and enjoying the sights and sounds of the stroll along the road surrounded by a tropical setting. When in Seychelles do go about on a 'walkabout' sampling what is on offer in the village shop.

A Radio Made Of Bamboo!

Well OK it is not exactly a radio made of bamboo but the concept to disseminate information is still there, at least in the Seychelles it is!
