In just two days we’re leaving Grenada. This has been our home since April 2, 2014 and it truly has felt like home. We were able to unpack our backpacks and actually hang up our clothes in a closet! We made some fantastic friends and we had sweet spare dog to take care of, who showed us great love in return.
There are so many things to do in Grenada, and during 7 months, we didn’t get to see them all. Honestly, we don’t feel ready to leave. perhaps this will be a place that we return to again and again (Update: we returned two more times!).

So, what did we get up to these past seven months?それをチェックしよう…
We lazed on the best beaches in Grenada, hung-out at beach bars, packed picnics to enjoy at secluded spots, and gazed in awe at the stunning sunsets from our favourite spots.
Sunset at Grand Anse, Morne Rouge Beach, Hog Island, Driftwood Beach
We took spare dog anywhere and practically everywhere! He loves going for car rides and seeing new places.

We hiked through the mud to reach chilly waterfalls, wandered along rocky points while enjoying beautiful views and walked through thick jungle to arrive at our favourite secret coves.

We visited age-old plantations, chocolate factories, rum distilleries and spice gardens.

We snorkelled in the deep blue sea, sailed up and down the island’s coast and went scuba diving to see sunken ships.

We placed our bets at a hermit crab race, participated in our first hash and listened to a band play music from a barge out on the water at a dinghy concert.

We ate delicious meals at some great restaurants with fantastic views, while drinking the local beers, Carib & Stag.

We visited the colourful capital city of St. George’s on numerous occasions to shop, eat and enjoy the historical sites.
Beautiful St. George’s
We enjoyed Roseanne’s fabulous BBQ and Ronda’s ice cream nearly every week!
The best chicken and pork on the island…with cookies & cream ice cream for dessert!
We danced, drank and were in awe (and shock!) at our first carnival celebration.

We had beach cook-outs, double dates and fun days with some fabulous people.

We sampled tropical fruits fresh from the trees on our property, tried our first “oil-down” and snacked on rotis.

We went cycling around the south of Grenada and deep-sea fishing!

We drove up and down and all around while exploring this windy, mountainous country.
A drive around the island takes a whole day with stops, even longer if you take your time
…and if all of this wasn’t enough, we went to the neighbouring islands in the Grenadines for 3 weeks to celebrate my 30th birthday! We island-hopped from Grenada up the Grenadines chain of islands, visiting Carriacou, Union, Tobago Cays, palm Island, Mayreau and Bequia.
The best 30th birthday ever!
There are many more things that we did while in Grenada, this list could go on and on. For such a small country, it really packs a lot of punch and we had some very memorable times here.
Farewell Grenada
Grenada will forever hold a special place in our hearts. It’s the first country where we successfully lived as digital nomads , the place of our very first overseas pet-sitting job and a country that gave us some much-appreciated joy, relaxation and peace for 7 fabulous months. We had some great experiences here and are delighted that we met spare dog and all of the other wonderful people that we have come to know and love.
What Does The next chapter Hold?
We feel that our next move really encompasses everything that we’re all about, and includes all of the things that we realized from living in Grenada.
We plan to fly from Grenada to Puerto Vallarta, then take a local bus to the small surfing town of San PaNCHO。私たちの友人であるダン＆ケーシーは、約2,000人の人口と水の上にあるこの町を私たちに勧めました。この趣のあるメキシコの町は、しばらくアパートを借りるのに最適な場所になると感じています。
2014年の初めにメキシコへの旅行が大好きでした
道路で4。5年後、今年は私たちの家族がついに海外に訪問する年です！私の父は8月にグレナダで私たちに会いに来ました。サンパンチョでの今後の滞在中、ニックの家族の4人のメンバーがさまざまな時期に訪れます。
少なくとも2か月間、一時的なメキシコの家に滞在する予定です。私たちは本当にスペイン語を学び、幸せでストレスのないライフスタイルを続けたいと思っています！その後、私たちはメキシコの別の地域に行くか、さらに南に中央アメリカと南アメリカに向かうかもしれません。誰が知っている、多分私たちは少しグレナダに戻ってくるでしょうか？！…
