Goodbye Caribbean

Stealing one more glance over my shoulder as we boarded the plane I was already missing the island vibes of St. Maarten but it's time for some South America and some city action. We had some fun hanging at Palacio Philippe and big ups to all the housemates for their hospitality and good times.

LOVE
sun, sand, warm blue water, leafy plants everywhere
crickets and frog songs at night
70 degree nights
creole culture and food (caribbean BBQ!)
outdoor eating and chilling
sailboats
blend of cultures and languages and nationalities
beachfront pools
french cuisine
mornings
getting on and off the plane with a metal stairway
air conditioning
fruit
good friends

NOT SO MUCH
fat white american tourists
tourist trap businesses
megayachts and megamoney
heat+humidity
unchecked development
expensive
mosquitos
