Welcome to My Paradise
I am a poster child for “Living Your Dream.” In 2005, I made my life long desire to live in the Caribbean a reality.

I just returned from a week's visit to Tennessee. After living in St Croix for almost 4 years, I'm an expert on the culture shock of going back to the mainland and coming home here. I've changed a whole lot in that time, and now can't imagine ever giving up our island lifestyle.
What are the main differences?
