  • Marac Beach

    Marac Beach

    Marac is the next village up from where I’m staying (La Lune, Moruga), and you can get there in about 10 minutes in a taxi which costs $4TT (40p in English money). Similarly to the beach at La Lune, the sea in Marac is dirty when it rains a lot, but it can still be Read more

    Natural Snacking in Trinidad

    Before I came to Trinidad, I was trying to be vegan but couldn’t resist eating cheese, so I always failed, but since I’ve been here I’ve been vegan the whole time.

  • How To Do Crop Over (Carnival in Barbados)

    Crop Over was the main reason I went to Barbados – I love carnivals and wanted to experience one in the Caribbean. The Crop Over celebrations last for months, but the main parts are probably Foreday Morning (jouvert) and Kadooment Day (the carnival procession day).
