In today’s episode, we’ll be talking to Heather Drummond, founder of Ecoshe, a plant-based education initiative based in Mauritius. Originally from Zimbabwe, Heather has spent the past ten years living on this beautiful island in the Indian Ocean, where she’s been working to improve vegan offerings in the local hospitality industry—particularly in 4- and 5-star resorts. She’s also an Ambassador for the Plant Based Treaty and a passionate advocate for sustainable and conscious travel.
In our conversation, Heather shares what brought her and her family to Mauritius, how the vegan scene is developing there, and what makes the island such a unique and exciting destination for plant-based travelers. We also explore how food, culture, and sustainability all come together in this vibrant part of the world. Whether you’ve been curious about vegan travel in Mauritius or you're just dreaming of your next tropical getaway, you’re going to love this episode.
