These are a few things I’m excited about this year! What are you working towards in 2012?

Happy New Year! Wishing you and yours a wonderful, positive, prosperous, successful, and memorable 2012 with lots of love from Trinidad and Tobago :)

Alebrijes, blue-footed boobies, and leatherback turtles are just some of my 2011 travel highlights.

Taken aback by this strange answer, I say, “So you think that all of the 500 million people who have Facebook are likely to be kidnapped?”
He smiles and says, “No. Just me.”

This project was too large for me to take on alone, even though this guide contains just 21 words and phrases, so I enlisted the help of my 14-year-old cousin whose Facebook status updates make me go “Wtf?” – or should I say, “What the ass?”

My initial fears were many: the left-hand driving and the utter lack of road signage were a bit nerve wracking. Add a speed limit that seems to be a mere suggestion rather than a hard-fastened rule and the fact that someone dies via traffic accident every two days, not to mention the fact that I hadn’t driven in almost a year and a half…

Traveling between Trinidad and Tobago is super easy – here’s how.

Ahh, Tobago. Trinidad’s sister island is one of my favorite places to do nothing.

The back of one of her legs had been bitten off, the shred of which slivered along after her. The guides mused that it was probably the aftermath of a shark attack.
