UK here. You have to drive in St VIncent, but never get on a bus. The buses are crazy and scared the life out of me. Once I get used to the road, driving gives me the freedom to go everywhere without waiting on anyone. Thanks for the videos....
One of the best, but not the best. Nice that you quoted it that way, simply because, every islander would argue that way about where they're from. Proud people, no matter which island.🏝️👏🇩🇲🇩🇲
Another great video. let me break it down for you .. Massy supermarket is a high end super market .. average Vincy dont make large shopping there as you can probably guess.. there are there are other superrmarket , not so "burguiose" also they are smaller wholesale own by local where we get things at bargain prices also... glad to have you come again , you are one of us now
I enjoyed the video. You got one thing wrong. SVG is not expensive at all. You showed all the imported goods and of course that’s going to cost more. In any country you MUST learn to shop like the locals by buying local products and produce. For instance buy dry goods like rice, flour and corn meal in a plastic bag without a label. Of course fish is fresh daily and the prices are excellent. Let’s not mention rent/mortgage is far less than Canada, the UK and the US. I’m from America and quickly learned to buy produce and most things from the street vendors, and not in the supermarkets. Loved the video and keep up the good work. ❤
You are mentioning the "hulls" it's actually a volcanic Island hence the hill. And many smaller Islands known as the "Grenadines" hope you all enjoyed the friendly vibes. 🇻🇨
St.Vincent is bordered by the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Jamaica is the only one fully surrounded by the Caribbean Sea, just like Barbados and Bermuda sits in the Atlantic Ocean.
Yep , I’m learning that the Caribbean Sea 🌊 is not as rough compared to the Atlantic. I lived in Bermuda 🇧🇲 and the sea can get really rough and it was the same experience in Bahamas 🇧🇸
How is security in the evenings ( walking to go to restaurants and coffee places) ? If you rent a FURNISHED apt ( one bedroom) , how much per month in US dollars ?
@@victorlionelnazaire685$1000 US is $2700 XCD you can get a three bedroom furnished house with that kind of money. St Vincent and the Grenadines is relatively safe. Most of the crimes that happen is among people who know each other. The only downside I would see is if you are a party hopping person we aren’t to big in that. We aren’t like the DR and those fast paced place many like to visit. If you are looking to a quiet place to decompress from the hustle and bustle of the western world and those touristy countries.

Really grateful to you for recognizing and showing the beauty of our "" land of the bless" as it is call. Glad you are enjoying every bit of your stay and our country's beauty.
@3Gkitchen either way locals are being overcharged. The Berkley Jensen brand that the supermarket was selling, is the same brand that I buy at bj's here in Massachusetts and those items are no where near the exchange rate..
Well my father in law lives in SVG and he say most of the streets with names were named by people in the community and most of the streets that we drove on did not have names and when you enter directions into google maps the directions comes up with the distance but no street names.
We will be heading to Jamaica 🇯🇲 next then Trinidad 🇹🇹 and after that we will be heading to Grenada 🇬🇩 if you know anyone that can take use around so we can see the best of Grenada 🇬🇩 I would appreciate that.
Yes that’s so true, when I was growing up back in the days the Caribbean used to be more self sufficient but now we depend on the USA 🇺🇸 for everything even the food 🥘 that we eat and that is so sad .
You stop it ! food stuff in Jamaica is in the thousands of dollars things in Jamaica is more expensive than in vincy our dollar are the East Caribbean currency, one Jamaican dollar is like $100 so don't compare vincy with Jamaica money
Thank you for your feedback. I know the Caribbean is extremely expensive compared to other places in the world 🌎 and I never compare St Vincent with Jamaican I’m comparing the prices to the USA 🇺🇸 and Canada 🇨🇦 where I live and all I’m saying is that the prices are 2 to 3 times higher than Canada.
@@carib21network I'm living in 🇨🇦 🍁 you get somethings here cheap when on sale but things are expensive all over the world now ,things used to be very cheap in vincy like a pound of sugar 83 cent ,1lb rice $1:10 1lb salt 60 ,but now adays every thing gone sky rocket 🚀
@@eunicepitt5339 thing here expensive no f.. a lot of things more expenssive than Jamaica... dem wah kill we down here.. every week food price going up , is no joke.
@hillieduvalier sorry to say is all over here in Canada 🇨🇦 too ,you go to the store you see a price when you go back it gone up people are complaining, the good thing about it thank god there is sale that's why I pack barrels!!
Good afternoon I believe that the lack of things to do in St Vincent is a perfect opportunity for locals to travel the Caribbean and see some of the great things that others are doing and take back ideas to St Vincent and invest. Don’t make the mistake like Jamaica and St Lucia and have people from outside of the Caribbean coming in to buy out your beautiful island 🏝️
St. Vincent is very mountainous and the scenic views are amazing. Love my homeland ❤
Thank you for watching

That KFC isn't in the city. The place is called Arnos Vale👍
I went to the one in Kingstown and the one in villa

We need to connect when I get back to SVG , I watch your videos all the time and you do a great job showing St Vincent to the world 🌎
I will be home soon
The average calculation of the foods EC$ vs C$, may be slightly higher, depending on where in Canada one resides.

Beautiful video, that oil in the supermarket is $30 U.S so it’s not that expensive 😅
Thank you for watching, I live in Canada 🇨🇦 and I would never pay $30 USA for olive 🫒 oil 💰💰💰
@@carib21network After the lockdown food prices in America doubled, it’s sad
in jamaica its a million dallars
How is security in the evenings ( walking to go to restaurants and coffee places) ?
If you rent a FURNISHED apt ( one bedroom) , how much per month in US dollars ?
It is a safe island 🏝️ and from what I’ve heard , you should be able to get a really nice place to rent for US $1000

Great! Can you describe WHAT they mean by a " really nice place " ? Furnished , equipped, quiet ?

@victorlionelnazaire685
I've heard from locals you can rent decent places for half the amount mentioned. Not luxurious, but comfy and safe!
The things are expensive, but your calculations is wrong, it's 265 ec to 1 us
Thank you for the correction, I was using Canadian money 💰 so I probably got the exchange rate mixed up 🇨🇦
You are welcome, and thanks for your videos
Really grateful to you for recognizing and showing the beauty of our "" land of the bless" as it is call. Glad you are enjoying every bit of your stay and our country's beauty.
Yeah that's really expensive. Go up to dorsetshire hill for the best view.
@3Gkitchen either way locals are being overcharged. The Berkley Jensen brand that the supermarket was selling, is the same brand that I buy at bj's here in Massachusetts and those items are no where near the exchange rate..
Those prices are past ridiculous. I pay approximately 16 usd for the dishwashing pods.. the laundry detergent is 18
Yes it’s really expensive
All streets in St. Vincent have names Sir.
Well my father in law lives in SVG and he say most of the streets with names were named by people in the community and most of the streets that we drove on did not have names and when you enter directions into google maps the directions comes up with the distance but no street names.
Sir, did you attend st Catherine high?
St Catherine high in Jamaica?
@@carib21network yes sir. Is your surname roper?
@@Don1Tee no it’s not

A bread in JAMAICA is over $200.00 JA…Leave VINCY alone…
$200 in Jamaica is $1 USA 🇺🇸 😁
@@carib21networkso that's rather cheap 😮
maybe you might like taking a trip to GRENADA , no difference except VINCY is bigger.

The whole carribean is expensive. All these unhealthy imports.
Yes that’s so true, when I was growing up back in the days the Caribbean used to be more self sufficient but now we depend on the USA 🇺🇸 for everything even the food 🥘 that we eat and that is so sad .
Locals do a lot better than visitors.
In what way?
Vincy watching from New York.. big up.
Big up New York
It's all what you are buying and sticking to local leave out foreign
Food always been expensive in SVG it’s Highway robbery 😢
All of the Caribbean is too expensive
@@carib21network by design.. but caribbean ppl resilient no matter how difficult they want to make life for us..
Your maths is in correct
Thank you
More than Jamaica....expensive
A little bit more
I think the Caribbean in general is way too expensive.
1us is equal to 267ec
Thank you. I realize that because I used Canadian dollars 💵 I get the rates mixed up

Nothing to do like what exactly?
Sounds like one of The enemies of opposition progress
I love it like that!! Too much play make Jack a dull boy.
St. Vincent is a nature island and there's lots to do.
