Marchand La Tisane.... (Medicinal Infusion Seller)

In the Central Market in Port Louis, we have a couple of  'Marchand La Tisane'.

They sell all kind of herbs that are supposed to cure all kinds of ailments such as cellulite, eczema, pms, ulcers, gastro problems or herbs to better your being such weight loss herbs, etc.. Not too many of these sellers left.

Unfortunately a dying folkore... but most Mauritians do have some of these herbs that they grow in their yard to cure the most common ailments.

Jazz in the alley in north beach

Yesterday, while walking back from home, I stumbled upon the jazz in the alley event, at vesuvio lane in north beach. Its for the entire summer every second wednesday of the month from 5 - 8. I love my daily walking commute. There's always something happening everytime. In the mornings usually, its lots of Tai Chi and in the evening, plenty of live music in the many bars or park or alleys on my way.
