Hamlak , read thru your note , well some of them are fact , which i have made mention in my past post about seychelles , Seychelles is a very expensive island for visitors , they make thier money from tourism. they are into the european markets and american market .

But seychelles is a beutifull place and a lovely place to work and start life , even so called canadians are coming to work in Seychelles , 3 of my colleagues are from canada , 2 from france . Seychellois are freindly people and very accomodating , they will never speak french to you , what they speak is Creole , which is ther local language ,but if u speak english to them , they reply you in english , altough thier english is funny somehow , cause they like stressing the last letter in thier sentence .

Seychelles does not have man power , 80% of workers in Seychelles are foreigners from france , Sri lankan , India , Mauritaus , Italian , Maldives and only 7 Nigerians working here with a permit . Seychelles has over 100 hotels and resort , they depend more on manpower from other countries , but no employee will employ you without a GOP(gainfull occupational permit), this is why i advise that who ever is coming to seychelles for work , should apply for his GOP before coming , I applied for my GOp before i came to seychells , it took about 1 month and 1 week , i arrived Seychelles and i started working at Labriz Silhouette after 8days .

Seychelles is just an island with 80,000 people , but with lot of potentials , the goverment controls everthing, which is good . They import all what they need , cause no farmland in seychelles , what they have is fish and tuna .
Food is very very very very cheap , they Seychelles Marketing Board (SMB ) runs a big super market at Victoria mahe , where you can buy all you need at cheap price , fish is the most chepest thing .

Like u said , you came to seychelles for visit with your family , before you came , did u make any research about seychelles ? 200 dolls for a night in a room is even cheap( U lucky to get it ) , the hotel i work is 900euro per night .

You are giving a 2weeks visit visa at the airport ( is that not enough to vist a country ) why would they extend your stay , when you dont have any money with you again . they have to chase you out .

Seychelles is a small island , and u can be easily picked up if you dont have a permit , its not like Nigeria , where everything is possible , or like london where nigerians can work without permit .

I stayed in London for 9 month , in london i was working as a dish washer , i hated it. but here in seychelles there are better jobs , not dirty jobs . and i have never regretted ever coming to Seychelles .

So my dear freind , seychelles did not runied you , dnt discourage people , u ruined your self .

You came to Seychelles to vist, they gave u 2 weeks visa for free , u spent all your money , and you think u can get a job and work to make some money , No way , no body will employ without permit .

Next time , make your plans before ever thinking of going to any country .

I was reading your post , with a Nigerian freind of mine working here in seychelles , we just laughing , do u think seycheles is Like London , where guys use fake passport or fake permit to work . Na ghana fit u , cause am sure in ghana , u can work ad live without permit (lol)


Next time u come to Seychelles , be free to give me a calll +248748446 , and i will accomodate you and show u how sweet and nice Seychelles is .

am even having an offer to come and work at Southern sun resort in Dubai , but i rejected it, cause working in Seychelles is the best place u can ever thin of .

bro are you on Whatsapp?
Re: Seychelles by abagadingus: 10:34pm On Aug 21, 2016
Good day darkroll, pls are you still in Seychelles??

darkroll:
Hi , Seychelles is a very lovely island , i moved in to seychelles to work for a resort 3 months aso , and it has been real great to work here , a very lovely island .
u can count seychelles as a african country , ( they are on the indian ocean ) and it looks similar to europe .it is visa free to Nigerians , but they have strict rules on Nigerians
most of them speaks french more than english .
there are some few nigerians here that plays basketball and some work for hotels.

if u want to know more , send me emails will tell u lot more

Hi All , (Renaud Uhmmm u have been reading too much of love novels i guess , )

To be frank with you all , Seychelles is an island for the rich , if you dnt have a job here doing , it will be of waste for you to come . i will advise you all to apply for GOP (Gainfull occupational permit ) with the seychelles immigration . you wil send your documents to them and your processing fee .

With this GOP , you can easily apply for a job when you get here . if you come as a Tourist , it will be very hard for you to get a JOb ,and cost of living will be very high for you . if you have a job your employee provides for all your needs , so you can be able to save a lot .


For those coming for vacations , the cheapest resort/hotel you can get to stay is around 300USD per night (including breakfast only ).

For flights :
Kenya Airways , Qatar Airways , Emirates Airline

Flight on kenya airways is around 1300dolls , you can check with the other airlines for thier rates .


There are only 5 Nigerians staying in Seychelles , and they all work here .

So you all ,if you follow my guidelines , you will have a wonderfull stay in Seychelles

If U require to know more , please send me an email . willa.seun@yahoo.com

(For all those that asked me to send them emails , am sorry i find it hard to send emails at times , due to tight schedule here . but please email me and i will reply .)

Thanks

I've never been to Seychelles but I'd love to spend my vacation there. Is March the best month for traveling? And who can recommend any websites where to find vacation packages at an affordable price?
