Wow! Wow! Wow! As a Bajan who has been living in another country for the last 18 years, I want to say thank you for that review as it brought me back home and reminded me of what I left behind. Sometimes it takes an "outsider" to tell your story.. I risk to say outsider as you are an honorary Bajan now! 😂 Enjoy your time in Madeira!

This video was so well done. Honest, fair, and respectful of the culture. Nicely done! 👏👏👏🔥💯

Just came back to Canada from BB after a week there. The people were wonderful. Very friendly and hospitable. Also liked the taxis, buses and Agricultural fair in Queen's Park, Bridgetown. Went to a church on Sun. Where things could improve are the roads and more sidewalls.

As a Bajan living abroad, this video had me grinning from ear to ear. I love that you fully immersed yourself in the Barbadian culture, and took the time to research, to explore, and to interact with the locals. I think that you arrived in Barbados at a particularly challenging time, and perhaps that gave you an extra appreciation for the strength of our nation and the pride and resilience of the people. Kudos as well for the meticulous way you compiled this video -- even down to the music choice and that bit about the bus crawl (if you know you know XD). Definitely looking forward to your future videos, and I hope you'll come back to Bim some time to check off the other items on your list and to learn a few more Bajanisms! You are defs an honourary Bajan now.

Thank you for being so respectful of our island and culture.

Thanks for your generous review of your time in Barbados 🇧🇧 👏

Glad you enjoyed. We are proud of our island

A cousin of my hubby shared your video, what a surprise to see my dad as your fav #9 goofy tourist, we were at surfside in feb 2022. Great video. My pet peeve the 1 biil per table when in a group.

Barbados shall miss you, this is such a beautiful and honest video of our Beautiful Island Barbados 🇧🇧. Best wishes on your next endeavor of Madeira. Be safe and your are certainly welcome in Barbados 🇧🇧 whenever you desire to return. Kudos for being a fantastic ambassador of our little island. An abundance of Blessings always ❤🙏 ❤

This is one of the best produced videos on Barbados I've seen. It "hits" that marketing "sweet spot".

This was wonderful. I live in Trinidad and Tobago. I always said I’d like to move to Barbados. Now more than ever! Great job!

Well done on your documentary on Barbados. This was well put together.

So much to love about this amazing video which captured the true heart of my country in just under 25 minutes! It was an excellent perspective of some of the things we take for granted and as a Bajan, this video confirmed that for me, there is and will never be no place like home ❤❤ Thanks for putting this together and good luck in Madeira. We'll miss you but know you'll make it back here soon.

This was very interesting, and i appreciate your candor in speaking your truth. I'm glad you find my homeland people do show kindness, i hope you do return another time. The video is a really good representation of the Island. Be safe on your new journey. I have subscribed to your page, i love travel, so i'm looking forward to your next video.🇧🇧🇨🇦😊🏝

I loved this!!! As a bajan it was really nice to see your perspective and I really hope you come back! Also you have to experience the submarine and you have to do Harrisons Cave

One of the best travel videos I’ve ever seen. Love your style with using photos and keeping it faceless and truly keeping it informative/very helpful. Great job! 🔥❤️🔥

You did more than I’ve done at home in about 40 years living here. Happy to have had you, all the best in your future endeavors

This was a beautiful video. It brought me to tears on past hardships and straight back to great pride for being able to say I'm a bajan. Thankyou for showing us. Ps don't forget your dash of nutmeg and splash of bitters in your punch

The sunsets are truly amazing!

I am a Bajan who left the island in 1961 and returned for short periods in 1964,1989,2001, and 2016 and on each occasion, I learned more about Barbados. In this excellent, and for me evocative travelogue some of the best aspects of my island Republic were highlighted, especially being lulled to sleep every night by whistling frogs, Andromeda Gardens, Hunte's Gardens, Barbados National Park, the open helpful friendliness of my fellow countrymen and women, and not least Bajan sweet food,,fish cakes ,flying fish cutters and hot sauce. Bring it on dude! Bon voyage.

Thank you for your truth about our little island. We welcome you to come again.

Thank you for your honest and warm hearted journey displayed of my home. Many blessings on your future endeavors. May Our Father Divine guide, guard and protect you from day to day. Be good and keep safe. ❤️🤗

This was absolutely beautiful. I loved this. I appreciate your fair and well rounded review of my country. I hope that those areas found lacking take note and improve. Barbados is indeed BEAUTIFUL!!. The places, the people, the food… it was a amazing trip down memory lane, especially for someone not currently there. Thank you for sharing your experiences. You captured the heart of Barbados…. gem of the Caribbean Sea. Thank you! All the very best to you on your next adventure. God Bless!

wonderful video!! I lived in Barbados for 1 year, Amazing people!!!

great video. Glad that you enjoyed yourself. come back soon!!

Love this video, glad you were able to explore and experience things in my home land Barbados 🇧🇧♥.

Useful, honest and objective information and visually enhanced and a great insightful experience. Thank you!

Thank you for such an amazing video of my homeland, and all the best as you start your next adventure.

Right on, man. Two years swept along quickly. Glad you're continuing the adventure in your next island home

Hey DN thanks so much for this awesome perspective you've created on the Gem of the Caribbean. You did it with a true gentleman's grace and charm and its certainly a great introduction to my island home for anyone coming from anywhere to discover and share our beauty. Hence you can rest assured I will be sharing it with others locally and internationally. Let me add my voice to the well-wishers and expectant anticipators of your take on Madeira... Its already a fascinating thing to know some of the similarities that island shares with Barbados. BLESSINGS

Excellent summary of your two year stay! Good luck on your next destination stay.

Thank you Barbados is beautiful I now live in the UK

Absolutely fantastic! I’ve vacationed in Barbados two times so far. I have already booked another trip there at the end of this year. I just subscribed and I will be going back and watching all of your Barbados videos. Good luck in the new location. I’ll be looking for your updates. Cheers.

Thanks for the balanced review of my beautiful island home. The board of tourism should use this. Enjoy your next adventure in Madeira.

As a Bajan living on island this was very nice. I say though that while the cost of setting up a website is doable, it is the cost of being able to take payments through the website that can be complicated and cost prohibitive for many entrepreneurs.

Love the video. The Sea and Sand Bar is a vibe. It sits on the beach and is soooo relaxing, and the owner Gordon and his brother are super sweet and welcoming. And they do have a nice rum punch. ♥️

This was an AWESOME video to watch about my Homeland. Thank you sir

I hope youcome back to our island sometime. Thank you for the fair and well produced travel feature. See you soon. I'm sure you will love Madeira. What made you chose us both?

Good morning Appreciate your video it was so on point and informative to us especially those three things that you say was bad not all it was very informative .

I consider myself fortunate that I was able to live there for 6 months on the Welcome Stamp. I love Barbados!

Loved your video of my favorite vacation Island. Thanks -

Wishing you all the best 👍🏾

This was awesome. Thanks for the video on my island 🇧🇧

10:29 Those animals are sheep not goats. A great tribute to Barbados. Glad you enjoyed your stay

Thank you for doing this video. I will be heading back there soon! 😃❤👏

Lovely review of our island! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Well I hope the Goverment and head of tourism of Barbados saw this review because yes their need to be some changes expecially the way bajans does speak to their customers in certain shops like jobs are easy to come by these days I'm speaking as a Barbadian myself

Love your videos - shame you don't get more views, very funny narration.

Wow!!!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this video and smiled at the familiar things you enjoyed. Thank you for the honest review and good luck in Madeira

Nice video. Looking forward to viewing your new destination

Nicely done. Very insightful.

I don’t know if anyone has ever told you this but your voice and accent is literally precisely the same as Paul Rudd ☺️

This was really good. Thank you for saying such wonderful things about my country Barbados aka Bim or Bimshire. Just one thing: next time use our own local music as your background music...even mine. 🤭 🤭. They are lots of us including Rihanna's music. She is our youngest National Hero and international icon. .You made me laugh also about the Word R***Hole. 😂 😂 😂 Feel free to come back again. Ask for me next time. ☺

Thank you for sharing. This was a great review☺️

Well done! Happy that you enjoyed living in Barbados. I miss home 😥

Excellent video. This will make me go visit Barbados. 😊

When you get to Madeira, go find Cptn Forthy, if you want to go marlin fishing! He's a Trini that lives there and probably one of the best charter captains around!

I have made more than 100 trips to Barbados in the last half century--the most recent of which was an 18-month stay in 2021-22--and I can vouch for the accuracy and insights contained I this travelog. I would only add that the Bajans (as they call themselves) are initially formal but, if you introduce yourself, warm, hospitable, helpful, friendly, literate and honest. Edwin Bayrd

Really good video glad you liked the island

This is a well put together video of your stay/ experience in Barbados. The authorities should be in contact with you to use it for enlightening future welco.e stampers. The website advice to businesses is good. From what I have seen many are NOT regularly and have not not been updated for a while,sometimes a year. Wishing you good health and success in Madeira.

Can't wait to see the next video

This was a great video of my once home , now I live in Toronto Canada . The downfalls can and should be work on . Can't wait to follow u on your next adventure.

This was informative and enjoyable! I've been to Barbados a few times, but I haven't done half the things you outlined. Definitely will need to visit again and do more things! Have fun in Madeira! Maybe your next stop could be my beautiful island of Bermuda!

Thank you for this, you have the soul of a diplomat...lol. Happy that you enjoyed your stay. Your video is being shared in small business whatsapp groups mostly because of your kind suggestions. BTW thanks for reminding me of places I can take visiting friends in the future. When you live here sometimes you forget about these places, take them for granted. See you again soon. Perhaps Crop Over/Kadoment???

Love your video, a lot of what you said is so true. Thank you.

Goodbye and Good luck! I will continue to watch to see what other similarities exist between Barbados and Madeira.

My morning-This morning was so “well done.” I want to be there.

Great video & you described Barbados 💯

man I took that rum tour when i was 18 - not a game haha. great video. just applied for the visa over the weekend.

Such a well-focused presentation on this video. Many of the problems are the same in other countries in the Caribbean and Latin America! How do people tolerate the weather in the hot months and do things day to day? It's amazing that people don't look all sweaty and drenched! Can you tell us how older retirees can obtain residency in Barbados, and how long you have to be there to retain it? Any ideas for quiet places that are reasonably priced? Thanks.

Thanks, nice video. Inspiring

Thanks for sharing your experience in Barbados. Beautiful country. I visited once.

Well put together, nice.

You have absolutely NAILED it!!! I need to say nothing more

Enjoyed that!

This video was excellent!😊 , but how did you not review any beaches???

Great video!

Never been to bajan country know a few people from there would like to visit someday nicely done from personal experience comparing to the thin dry air of Colorado

Thank you for visiting my home and sharing

#13 those trees are called Poincianas, or Delonix. You can find them across the tropics, even asia. Favorite tree.

Very appreciative. Bajan living in florida

Very well done I see you missed the Barbados Police Service Band maybe next time,enjoy your travels.

Good, accurate video.

8:44. I must say I have been over the entire island and never noticed indiscriminate littering. As a matter of fact I always remarked on how clean the environment was.

This was masterful. The government should hire you.

Nice job!!!

Great wrap up.. will miss seeing the island updates but i am looking forward to the new location as portugal is on my bucket list.. Good luck from pennsylvania ! ps did you ever get to chefette or cutters ?

Well done, safe travels!!

Great video

I would love to chat with you via phone. Your perspective was by far the most comprehensive I have seen on KZfaq. I have small children and thinking of moving. Please consider my request for a phone convo. Thanks 😊

Enjoyed this vlog. I hope you return

I loved this. I've been here 23 years now. Still love the sunsets. Still loathe the garbage. Still don't 'get' cricket. But HAVE learned the different between a goat and a sheep ;)

Very well done!

Great video...thank you. Hope to retire there....soon😊

Who did the 'dont worry be happy cover' from 9:52 ? really like it

hey, hope everything is fine. I am eagerly awaiting on your new contents.

You picked up a slight accent, love the video

Well done

Hi I don't mean to be to nosy.. but do you mind telling me what kind of remote job you do? I´m currently trying to figure out a good field to study to find remote jobs. Thanks.

I hope you re-visit Barbados. 😂😂😂😂 I like your dislikes because it’s the truth. Dude you funny 👍🏽
