Just watched the Roadster unveil from Mauritius 🇲🇺🚗🚀 Upside-down driving, actual flight, 0-60 in under a second. SpaceX thrusters on a car. Worth the ~9-year wait? 👀 #Tesla

Wednesday night in Mauritius 🇲🇺🍛 Midweek dinner sorted: a homemade chicken curry with rice, and a side of chutney pomme d'amour (tomato chutney) with a little chilli 🤤 What's your go-to midweek comfort food? 👇 #Mauritius

Wednesday evening in Mauritius 🇲🇺🌀 Cyclone season has officially started, which means the classic island ritual: panic-buying bread, candles and tins of sardines at the first warning 😅 What's on your emergency supply list? 👇 #Mauritius

Wednesday afternoon in Mauritius 🇲🇺🚀 Starship Flight 15 is set for Friday, which means a 2:45am Saturday alarm for me to watch them try to catch both the booster AND the ship 😅 Worth losing sleep over? 👇 #Starship

Wednesday lunchtime in Mauritius 🇲🇺☀️ With sunshine almost every day here, a few solar panels on the roof plus a Tesla in the driveway feels like the dream setup: driving on pure island sunshine 🚗 Would you go solar + EV if you could? 👇 #Tesla

Wednesday morning in Mauritius 🇲🇺🧠 Halfway through the week, so a fun one: if you could download one skill straight into your brain, Matrix-style, what would it be? I'd take playing the ravanne drum properly at beach parties 😄 👇 #AI

Tuesday night in Mauritius 🇲🇺🦎 The geckos on the veranda wall have started their evening chirping concert, basically our free bug control team 😄 What little creature always shows up at your place after dark? 👇 #Mauritius

Tuesday evening in Mauritius 🇲🇺🎶 Imagine you're the first person to step out of Starship on Mars and you get to play one song for the whole planet. I'd go with a proper sega beat to get the robots dancing 😄 What's your Mars song? 👇 #SpaceX

Tuesday afternoon in Mauritius 🇲🇺🚗 Picture a self-driving car on our roads: cane trucks, surprise roundabouts, dogs napping on the verge and buses stopping wherever they like 😄 Would you trust one here yet, or keep your own hands on the wheel? 👇 #Tesla

Tuesday lunchtime in Mauritius 🇲🇺🚀 Time machine question: which moment in space history would you most want to watch live? Mine is Apollo 11's first step, which would have been just before 7am Mauritius time 😄 👇 #Space

Tuesday morning in Mauritius 🇲🇺🐦 Who needs an alarm clock when the mynahs outside start their gossip session at 5:30 sharp 😅 What wakes you up first: alarm, birds, kids or the smell of coffee? 👇 #Mauritius

Monday night in Mauritius 🇲🇺🌧️ Up in Curepipe the rain drumming on the tin roof is the best sleep soundtrack there is, no app needed 😴 What sound helps you fall asleep? 👇 #Mauritius

Monday evening in Mauritius 🇲🇺🚗 The drive home from Port Louis is the same every day: bumper to bumper, windows down, Sega on the radio and a hot gato piment from a roadside stall to survive it 😄 What's your commute soundtrack? 👇 #Mauritius

Monday afternoon in Mauritius 🇲🇺📱 Challenge: you can keep only five apps on your phone for a week and everything else gets deleted. Mine: WhatsApp, X, Maps, Camera and the weather app (Curepipe needs it 😅) What are your five? 👇 #Tech

Monday lunchtime in Mauritius 🇲🇺🤖 If a robot like Optimus could take one chore off your plate forever, which one would you pick? Mine is ironing shirts in this humidity 😅 👇 #AI

Sunday evening in Mauritius 🇲🇺🦇 Just as the light fades, the fruit bats take off — whole flocks of roussettes gliding over the rooftops toward the fruit trees 😮 Ever seen a flying fox up close? 👇 #Mauritius

Sunday afternoon in Mauritius 🇲🇺🪁 A breezy weekend at the beach means kites everywhere: kids running, uncles shouting advice, and at least one kite stuck in a coconut tree 😄 When did you last fly a kite? 👇 #Mauritius

Sunday lunchtime in Mauritius 🇲🇺🌴 At Mont Choisy the whole island seems to set up camp under the filao trees: big pots of curry, a game of cards and kids running in and out of the lagoon 😄 How does your family spend a lazy Sunday? 👇 #Mauritius

Sunday morning in Mauritius 🇲🇺🥖 Nothing beats the walk to the corner boutik for warm baguettes, then butter, chilli paste and a hot cup of tea with the whole family 😄 What's your classic Sunday breakfast? 👇 #Mauritius
