Fishing departure

by majoe

Rodriguans are mainly fishermen while women often are the ones who fish for the octopus. The main spoken language is creole while English and French is officialy used.

During the weekend most inhabitants would be at the corner store or the "pub" to play cards, dominos and enjoy a good glass of rum.

Their traditional dance is slightly different from Mauritius. Slower in their moves and "cadence".
