Am I right or wrong to return to Mauritius?

I will strongly suggest against. The Mauritian mentality have not for better. Very very selfish. I hv witness sm people who r without ä roof and their neighbour is driving ä ferrarri. No sense of charity. I can go on and on. Please dnt move to mauritius

I would say the Mauritian mentality has improved a lot, it all comes down to where you live though.

I was once in a gas station in a village and decided to buy a drink while my car is being fuelled, i was the only one waiting for the cashier since she was busy chatting with her colleagues anyways i was there waiting for her and then one man came from nowhere and stood right in front of me. Hello? I'm like wtf. So i told him, excuse me? I was the first one. I didn't try to be rude or anything i just said it in a polite manner.

This old creep starts talking nonsense to me in French and yeah he was a local and not to mention that even a kid can talk better french than him. He starts telling me yeah i come here everyday i was gonna let you pass first and shit like that in a rude way. His tone was just not good, i didn't say anything just because he was an old man. I just paid for my drink and went away silently.

TIP: If you are going to move to Mauritius, choose to live in a place like "Grand baie" where people are really cool.

Just as there is thieves everywhere, negative attitudes are come from everywhere....Even, I had this confusion and couldn't make out my mind some 10 years ago...I had to write the pros and cons of returning to my native country...I agree I was earning a lot more from my part time job...but then my families were here...Today, i'm married and has 2 wonderful kids and of all has a job and can afford a car and is progressing in life here in Mauritius.
My friend our lives are like rulers...we don't really know how long it is though...but we say life is too short.Do things which give you pleasure....if you need the warmth and support of families why not?
10 Years ago, I was living with my sister and brother in law in England. THOUGH my bro used to complain abt Mauritius yet he had that soft corner for his native country...They used to work hard to visit at least once a yr...Lately, he had made himself a lot of wealth and visited us as usual but this time when he left, he tried to come back here to cut off time in mtius for his remaining days after he was diagnosed with a serious desease....on the day of his flight, he died

Having considered it for many years and after a number of visits I have decided against it, in spite of being brought up on the island and having a Mauritian wife. While others have written about Mauritius being behind the times in many ways, all of which strikes me as true, there are deeper underlying issues that have not changed in the 65 years since I started school there, in fact I have come to believe that many of the darker sides of humanity have become more prevalent in the last twenty years or so. It would be naive to think that the problems society faces in Europe are any less prevalent in Mauritian society and therefore that one might be 'escaping' the trials of modern life, more so when considering bringing up children. It does take a couple of years to become aware that sunshine, beaches and gateaux piments are not everything in life and that perhaps a holiday visit might provide you with the good without the bad. As to your last question, the choice of a partner would be just as difficult as anywhere else and might just be fraught with a few more difficulties. Many of my generation sought and found partners there and the majority did not end happily. Sorry for the lecture but my message is to think very, very carefully and dip your toes in the (metaphoric) water before committing. It might be colder than you'd expect!

I sold my house in the UK with a view to settle in Mauritius and 2 years later, I moved back to England. You can read about my experiences here, here and here.

My personal opinion after living in the UK is that Mauritius is very far behind in terms of mentality, security and opportunities. You may find it different but for me, returning back was not a good move.
