Mauricio, una isla tropical, esplendida y solitaria en medio del oceano Índico. Cien kilómetros de playas magníficas de arenas blancas, festoneadas por aguas azul pálido o esmeralda de la laguna marina sobre la que la isla parece posada. Arrecifes de coral poblados por millones de peces de colores. Paraiso de los deportes acuaticos, el submarinismo y la pesca de altura. Clima suave, Cocoteros y casuarinas al borde del mar, mares verdes de campos de caña de azucar en el interior, enmarcados por una lujuriante vegetacion dominada por picos dentados, restos de las explosiones de sus antiguos volcanes. Una poblacion multirracial: indios, africanos, chinos y descendientes de europeos, fundidos en el deseo comun de identidad mauriciana. Y sin ningun problema -ni racial ni de otro tipo-, todo lo contrario, un pais muy seguro donde sus habitantes, muy educados y amables, acogen con interes y simpatica inocencia al visitante. Por esas razones se denomina a Mauricio "La sonrisa del Indico".
