Tourism, that has been the life of Alain St.Ange, remains the people’s industry he works at with passion and with his heart. He worked in hotels in Seychelles, the Channel Islands and in Australia. He is a known and respected tourism personality and is often called on to address tourism or air transport on the international circuit because of his in-depth knowledge of the subject matter and his ability to speak off the cuff or ‘from the heart’ as he prefers saying. St.Ange has just completed a 8-Series lecture tour on a luxury floating residence which saw him disembark in Seychelles after virtually 30 days cruising the coast of Southern & Eastern Africa.
