Looking forward to a Great year in Grenada - 2011

I've now spent a year in Newcastle, England, a year in the Caribbean, Grenada, and have left the Island. They were the two best years of my life so far.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What I did In Grenada:
-Live music at Prickley Bay Marina
-Fish Fridays - delicious local food up in Guyave
-Stopped by locally BBQ'd Streetmeat vendors for a midnight snack
-Plenty of Scuba Diving
-Lobster, swordfish, Streetmeat, Callaloo soup, and other local delcacies
-Yacht cruises around the island
-Snorkeling
-Motorcycle rides around the island
-Rented a car and drove 30miles up to the top of the island to see the GIANT leatherback turtles perform their annual egg laying.
-Soca dancing
-Rugby, Soccer, Basketball, Ping Pong, Football, Ultimate Frizbee on campus
-Visit Venezuela
-Do a lot more scuba diving, there are a lot of underwater shipwrecks here
-see the baby Leatherback Turtles hatch
-Finish my basic science courses
-Go tubing behind a speedboat, waterskiing and/or wakeboarding
-Live in a house on the hill overlooking the water for atleast a few months of my life

And people say there's nothing to do there. NOT TRUE!!!

  2. What a great way to get an education. The pressure and stress of a demanding medical school curriculum is softened by the beauty of the environment in which you get to learn. Enjoy!

  3. Heeey it sounds amazing but sometimes do you feel like just maybee going to a mall and watching a movie on imax? Don't you feel the absense of city life at all? Clubs, cinemas, buildings! I ask because I'm thinking of coming to st george!
