  • A blaxit to the Caribbean islands of St Kitts and Nevis became a no-brainer for UK-born Chantal Miller.
    In this interview the founder of Islang Grils Rock, Chantal expains how the impact of the pandemic nudged her towards prioritising her wellness and wellbeing over work.
    Chantal shares with the Exodus Collective exactly what is about life on the island of Nevis that offers the healing, nourishment, and opportunities for sustainable growth that she truly needs.

    This was a beautiful video. I hadn't thought of St. Kitts & Nevis but this conversation put it on my radar. Chantal's thoughts about healing her health and the healing she needs as a Black woman closely echo my own. Thank you for this.

    Welcome home, Chantel! I feel happy and encouraged when our people return home to St Kitts and Nevis and by extension the Caribbean.
    You are so alive, vivacious and full of life. But most importantly you've had the foresight to return with enthusiasm and energy while you're still young and healthy enough to be productive in your thrust ahead. BLESSINGS, my dear, and continue to glow!

    One of my very first vacation was in Nevis. We were visiting with my friend whose parents were retired from Canada....this experience as left me in a permanent state of utopia. I met some fantastic people and being able to travel between islands was a definite bonus. This little paradise still is and will always a place I would recommend (which I have) for a awesome time of fun, sun, relaxation and where the communities will know you are not a "belonga" and be good with that. bigga up to Herbert's beach and Sunshine. So grateful for such a memorable experience. Last but not least....I love your channel, it is still new, things will get better as far as finding your niche. Nuff respect and love.

    Have visited St Kitts but not Nevis. I loved the friendliness of the people but it was definitely a small island where you see the same people often. I think you would need to be the type of person who enjoys that small town feeling where people are in your business but not in a negative way but because everyone looks out for each other. I enjoyed my 2 weeks in St. Kitts but couldn’t live there permanently.

    QUESTION: One spouse is retired and ready to relocate to the Caribbean... but the other spouse wants to continue working for another 5+ years (because s/he really enjoys the job) --- so, if it was YOUR spouse --- would you wait for them to retire, or go ahead and relocate...???

      Small island developing states are undoubtedly affected by climate change. The island I live on will not be wiped out by rising sea levels in my lifetime, nor in my children's so I chose not to make that a factor in my decision making process. Each to their own though 🙂
