Thanks for the tips!

Sounds to me like you moved to USVI for purely emotional and romantic reasons without using your heads. You could have researched ANY of this-cost of living, amenities, activities, nightlife, culture, housing costs, travel costs/logistics-I mean the important things any couple would do before making a major life decision. You went on vacation for three years and got bored. I said after my first cruise, “I wish we could live on this boat.” I didn’t do it, of course, but that’s how irrational your decision sounds and one of you is an educator…anyway, maybe, hopefully, your video will help others. I moved to a tropical part of Florida from the worst part of Florida and I love it. Next for me would be the Bahamas or the Keys!

Not Stupid Tourist😮😢..SmH😂😂😂

16:39 bro got ripped off lol try the North side!

12:55 as a Virgin Islands native, this is true. It makes us stronger! 💪🏼

So things have changed from this video. Not a lot of it is true anymore. And before moving anywhere, don’t vacation there, go for a month. Research research research

Yeah the real reason. No body will say!! Gets a little too Black.

Mine doesn't have cup holders but my table does so no worries. It does have 2 small pockets on the right hand side. Perfect size for my Kindle, phone, wallet, etc. Caught a sale which was great. Love mine.

I spent two vacations in Crystal Cove and it’s two vacations at sapphire Beach resort What a great place to just relax and be at peace

Maybe you need a family?

Great detailed video. Wife and I are coming 11/15/24 let’s hang out.

What an INCREDIBLE video. Thank you so so much. Sharing the reasons like when your house was flooded, the kmart underwear, the happiness chart, also LOVE hearing about the rental income strategy, I have just subscribed to your Retirementality channel also. LOVE that you said 99 times out of 100 its go do the crazy thing so you dont regret not doing it. I appreciate hearing the pointer of keeping ur house in USA to have somewhere to go back to. AWESOME VIDEO TY

Would you mind sharing which resort building you rented from? I would like to see if it's a good fit to find a rental at, because I'm currently looking on Zillow and not seeing a lot. Thank you so much!

Wow thank you so much for talking about the logistics of island hopping not being that easy. Because I had in my mind that you could just hop, skip and jump to the rest of the Caribbean islands from USVI. Appreciate you speaking on that.

Life on the edge of the Empire can be challenging. Not everyone is equipped to do it.

".. where worked at.." Where did you go to schoo?

Could a pair of vans be used as water shoes

The life on the island have changed after Irma and Maria. Many issues with mismanagement of federal financing is now coming to the surface. Many good points about lack of better and easier ways to do things ( including interconnectivity with other Caribbean islands) should have been taken to the review by our tourist department and other agencies. However, we just went through another storm and each time it’s a kick back and a challenge to rebuild. Unfortunately, due to the climate change this will be happening more and more often and island infrastructure will continue suffering. Too many issues getting swapped under the rug 😢

Groceries are 3 x more than the states

Curious … if you started a reliable Handyman/Small remodeling company on the island … what do you think that would look like? Enough business or does that work stay with the locals? I understand that you need to be pleasant but just trying to scout out what happens when your home has an issue.. like leaking plumbing. Is it still island time to get it repaired? Thansk in advance… Me & the wife want to give it a go the closer we get to retirement. Been to the island a fair amount so far.

I always thought it would be cool to live there but I think its just as easy to rent an Airbnb there for a few weeks at a time and then leave.

Solbello is the greatest beach shade IMO.

We've had our Shibumi for 3 years and LOVE IT! Headed to Panama City Beach later this week and Shibumi is definitely making the trip!

It was not a good decision you will see why in sept😮

Are there any restaurants that service you while you’re sitting on the beach or do you have to go and get up every time you want a beer?

Hints: Avoid long introductions outside the place you want to show. Remeber you can add the room dialogue to the clips of the visited place.

If you are still responding, would seaplanes get you between the islands? We want to start a tourist seaplane trip but you make it sound like we might be busier with island hoppers.

An informative video! Definitely can see your points. I guess it just wasn’t practical to stay there given your business ties on the mainland and of course too little variation in things to do on the island. Have always felt like wherever I go because I take myself with me that I do the same four or five things over and over no matter where I go. I tend to get bored when I travel and generally don’t travel much anymore. Can save a lot of money that way. I’m a creature of habit looks like. Thanks for sharing your experiences. They relate well to how some of us feel about managing multiple properties from afar. Life is tough for people rich enough to own several investment properties😊

Banned on some beaches because of the noise.

Question : How is the weather in August? My birthday is the last week of August but I know August is part of the hurricane season and don’t want to have a ruined vacation

I lived there St .Croix and St. THomas for 3 years. Dangerous living.

👍👍

wow, 1:44 min just for the intro and 4:30 before we see the product.

Great video. I considered these two in my beach gear. I opt for the sobello and have been having a great results with it.

Thanks that was helpful. I may get this ones since it's so easy to pur up.

Everything you guys are saying definitely shows me that's not a place for me

cant wait for heaven.just dont know where to go

I could completely understand what you're saying. That's why I will never go on a cruise again because I felt trapped.

You should add a weight off both. I have Shibumi little. It is very light and it is very important this days when the airplane company’s start to extra charges for the luggage.

Put a dumbbell in the bag instead of sand.

...that it sucks? 😂😂

I feel you had way to much of your life still on the mainland. Not to mention the lack of research regarding your living expenses. I totally understand the need for space and a condo would surely turn me off. But if you had the choice to live pretty much where you wanted, I believe your story would be different. But thanks. But not much info on changing my mind about a possible move to st croix. But I'm taking it all in. Thanks for your insight

You went to the wrong island. I live on St. Croix and there are always things going on. Island living is not for everyone. You have to give up a lot but what you get back more than makes up for it. It sounds like you didn't do your research before you lept. Good luck in your future endeavors.

Hi enjoyed my first of your videos! I love PCB, and see you have made videos there too. Is that where you live now? Thanks PS. Tour of your home Ty

Please please please please leave the Caribbean alone. There are European islands

You were on the wrong Island !!!! St Thomas and St John is a tourist trap !!!!You should move to St Croix that's what's where it's at. I'm been here for 5 yrs plus.
