Enjoy a break from work - Mauritius holidays for total relaxation

Working hard all year round can take it out of you and many people feel they really deserve a bit of time off somewhere special once or twice a year, to give themselves time to relax and take it easy for a couple of weeks. This tropical island in the Indian Ocean is one of the few relatively unspoilt holiday destinations left, and will hopefully stay that way due to government restrictions on the number of visitors allowed each year as well as strict building controls. Flights from London take approximately 12 hours to reach the international airport, located about a 45 minute taxi ride away from the capital city of Port Louis.

Self catering villas are a great choice for flexible Mauritius holidays, allowing you to choose when and where you want to eat and when to get up. You will have plenty of free time here to work on your curriculum vitae, making sure it is word perfect and ready to send off to companies on your return to the UK. You can really gain some perspective while you are so far away from home and pinpoint your unique skills and strong points, as well as make some long term decisions about the direction in which you want your career to go. There are many templates available for free on the internet that can help get you started and plenty of advice to help you avoid some of the more common mistakes people make when writing their CV.
