For me there is no greater joy than spending time outdoors enjoying nature. I have been blessed to grow up in the Caribbean and I have spent my last few years hiking throughout Trinidad and Tobago. For 2022 and beyond, the focus of this blog will be to highltight some of my favorite waterfalls and beaches that my friends and I often hike to. Join us as we rediscover paradise, one hike at a time!
