When we visit we don't stay at resorts. We eat in the community, buy from roadside locals, and drink at Kabawès. We tip big and try to leave as much money in SLU as we can. So much of the tourism money doesn't even stay on the island.
@Travelinsiders24 appreciate your videos. We learned about the farmers market from one of your videos and were able to stop by last month and support the locals. We always miss SLU.
Economies are bad globally. UK is in recession. Americans are complaining about high prices. St Lucia is a small island,238 square miles with a population of 180,000.
Thats the rubbish everyone keeps saying. Saint Lucia has violence, there is violence everywhere, saint Lucia economy is bad, Economies are bad everywhere. Shit is Fcuked up in saint lucia and thats the reality, until we can't admit to ourselves the issues then we will never begin to fix it.
Absolutely love St Lucia. Been a few times. Last time we stayed at st James club but hired a car and spent a lot of time in the south by vieux fort. Love it
Keep it up dude you are the way of my learning of this beautiful country and beautiful people. Hopefully inshallah one day Saint Lucia will held its head up
Here is why I don't see a future for St.Lucia. It Needs these Two things in Order to be Successful, the ability to provide a good educations to most people that teaches them skills and civility so they can be productive, in other words the development of human capital from the start. 🫶🏾This teaching comes from parents and teachers who instill good values and principles to be productive with other. 🫡The second is an environment that gives people the resources that they can be productive. 🗣At its best that environment provides financial capital that comes from, banks, investors to invest in those who are capable of being productive. This environment, must be a civil place to live, work and raise ones family. Ideally making it a place with many exciting people doing exciting things so that its a creatively stimulating environment. In other words having the right people in the right environment that supports productive creativity is what it takes.
