I originally met Carlos Gittens of Urbane Woodz at an arts and crafts bazaar held at the True Blue Bay Resort here in Grenada.

Grenada: Out the Waiting Room and into the Bays

One gift in living in a country outside of your own is the abundant opportunity for inspiration from new experiences. Over the summer months I had taken an unintended hiatus from writing. Paralysis by analysis lurks in many of our closets— especially for writers. My only antidote for the dreaded writer’s block was to get Read Post

Anguilla: Lunch At Smokey’s At The Cove

As I gazed out at the water, I tried to figure out if the west side or the east side of the beach was prettier. I was sitting on the deck at Smokey’s At The Cove sipping on a rum less daiquiri and just relishing in the beauty of one of Anguilla’s 33 beaches. It Read Post

Grenada: So, You’re Hungry in Carriacou

The Girlfriend and I recently returned from a trip to Grenada. Lovely place, and we both recommend you should go. While you are there, a trip to the neighboring island of Carriacou is a must (same country, different island). From Grenada, it’s a quick 90 minute ferry ride or a 20 minute flight away. We did Read Post

Barbados: George Washington’s House

It is said that George Washington, first father of the United States, took a trip to Barbados with his older brother on the recommendation of their Doctor.

Grenada: Finding History In Megrin

I have been a lover of historical things since I can remember. There is something deeply enthralling when I immerse myself in those parts of history that remain open to question. Being an expat in Grenada, I’ve found that one must do their own research in discovering rich historical sites that are outside of our Read Post
