Hi Timo, an Australian here. How does the constant cyclones and rain affect the real estate values and infrastructure of Mauritius and are some coasts more affected than others? Here in Australia we can easily avoid cyclones even within the same state like Queensland, because the cyclones hit Northern Queensland, but peter out further south and Brisbane further south very seldom gets affected due to the sheer size of the state. One cattle farm here is twelve times bigger than the whole of Mauritius, so that makes me think the whole country of Mauritius gets wiped out in a cyclone and being on an island the recovery period must be years affecting infratructure, electricity and water which in turn affects real estate prices if your house is still standing.
