The winter is one of the best times to make long journeys to discover the relaxing and exotic tropical areas around the world.

One of the goals that has been very re-evaluated in recent years due to its unique flora and fauna that make it unique and memorable in the eyes and memories of those who visit is certainly the Seychelles archipelago.

Located in the Indian Ocean and consists of about 155 islands this archipelago is one of the tourist resources and less contaminated richest traditions and untouched nature found to the north east of Madagascar and about 1600 km to the east coast of Africa, in particular the Kenya. The Seychelles islands have always been one of the most popular exotic destinations throughout the year thanks to the peace and serenity that reigns within them.

Precisely for this major cultural events of these islands are based on the predominance of the female figure whether engagements, presentations, collections of fashion or social events in general. It's not only the traditions that have influenced the culture in general and the history of the Seychelles Islands. The dual French and English rule has meant that these two types of culture will merge into a unique mix also influenced by the Kenyan tradition. In fact, despite the school structure is based on the English system the French influence is detectable in many levels of education so that in many processed Anthropological Society of Seychelles has been called "essentially English but emphatically French."
