@asmartbajan2 жыл бұрын
Go easy on the rum punch. Its flavor tends to mask the amount of alcohol it contains. As a result, since it's usually quite delicious, there's a tendency to drink a lot of it, and before you realize it you're drunk! I'm a Bajan, so I know what I'm talking about.

Again a lovely presentation!!! Here is the recipe for authentic rum punch if you’d like. 1 of sour - lemon / lime 2 of sweet - simple syrup (brown sugar) 3 of strong - rum 4 of weak - ice / water (use water if you prefer more diluted version) That is the ratio for a typical Barbadian rum punch.

How safe is it on barbados? And how expensive is it when you live on barbados?
@brentshuffler1234 Жыл бұрын
Hans, [1] it is very safe in Barbados and most parts of the Caribbean. Just take normal precautions: e.g., stay in the safety of numbers and public spaces as much as possible. Avoid being alone or in secluded spots. [2] To live in Barbados or most islands in the Caribbean can be as expensive/luxurious or as cheap as you choose. E.g., there are places that you can rent for under U.S.$500 per week . . . or you can find villas and hotels that cost thousands per NIGHT. There is a great variety on the island . . . in everything from food to accommodation to activities to festivals to entertainment to social events . . . and it is really up to you how much or how little you spend in the end.

michael reidy, no, all COVID-19 restrictions have been removed in Barbados and throughout the Caribbean. The world has changed radically since year 2021 and tourism and the cruise-industry are fully back to pre-pandemic normal capacity, itineraries, products, and services. Enjoy fully! Of course, it is still highly recommended to practise basic protocols such as wearing a good-quality mask in airports, during flights, and in crowded places. Always good idea to practise good hygiene and sanitation. Physical distancing makes things more comfortable for everyone, as well as safer health-wise.

Video is great, but wear your damn mask when close to people. It's the law in Barbados. Putting locals' lives at risk is not work the views. I know a lot of the scenes you weren't close to people, but in others you were (inside the taxi). Frankly it'd be more authentic and promote expectations for responsible visitors.

I do not know how much you have experienced Barbados or the rest of the Caribbean, but there is so much to do, to see, to touch, to taste, and to experience, it is an amazing country/region! I think that the biggest issue is how IGNORANT most people are about all that is available, and that includes many people who live on the island (or in the region). E.g., persons from the South might rarely or never visit places in the North or the East. It is surprisingly easy to become comfortable and familiar with the cosmopolitan urban corridor from Oistins to Holetown and to forget that that is only a 1/4 of the island (i.e., 3 out of 11 Parishes).

We saw what happened in Britain, U.S.A., and elsewhere and learned not to take things for granted health-wise. To this day, many people practise basic precautions such as enhanced hygiene and sanitation, wearing of masks in public/indoor places, physical distancing, and getting vaccinated.
