[@biking-viking-claus-andersen]

I really like you Caribbean videos, because they are not filmed from a cruise ship or from a resort. The way you explore the Caribbean is the way that I want to do it myself when I get there. So thank you for showing us what it is like to travel this part of the world.

[@travel_with_phil]

This is the most interesting way to see the real world. I love actually experiencing life in a country even if it is just for a moment. I hope you get to travel to the Caribbeans, they are really something else.

[@philbertfrederick4776]

[@ShayonFerdinand-j9o]

I Love me my island

[@Loupadron2010]

Miss Phillis what is the temperature of the water (the beach)? So pretty it is all nature. I envy you that you are there having fun on St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

[@travel_with_phil]

It was pretty warm even when it rained because the air temperature was pretty high too throughout

[@cavernedmochache4455]

Owia Salt Pond is one of my favourite places. Glad you were able to visit Philis. I once walked there too. It was breathtaking. Do you know that years ago Indeginous people jumped to their death near there in an attempt to escape being captured by colonizers

[@travel_with_phil]

I was honestly very surprised by how wonderful it was. I did not know about the history. That quite sad.

[@xplicit7203]

May I ask what kind of camera are you using?

[@travel_with_phil]

I use a gopro

[@tanayprabhavalkar2497]

The ponds looks beautiful. But how come you choose to go on a cloudy and rainy day? I think it would have been better if you did go on a sunny day?

[@travel_with_phil]

The pond is absolutely stunning, I was honestly blown away by their simple beauty❤❤❤ Unfortunately as full time travellers we don't always get to choose days with "good weather" The entire time I was in St Vincent it was raining a lot. That Saturday was actually sunny for the most part then it rained in the afternoon and then it became sunny again

[@tanayprabhavalkar2497]

@travel_with_phil wow, how come you replied so early in the morning today at about 4:30 AM? This was the first time you did it. Weren't you sleeping?

[@AnaiyahWilliams-s5m]

[@ju-cnose5026]

❤

[@travel_with_phil]

❤

[@jerrypunnett]

These Georgetown vans fast ride loud music

[@travel_with_phil]

I got used to SVG vans and loud music, I had to mute most videos to avoid copyright😆

[@opendamitch3387]

Just realised you were my lecturer back in Strathmore 😃😃

[@travel_with_phil]

Hey, small world! Good to see you here, hope you're enjoying the content. Which is better my lecturing skills or my KZbin skills? 😃😃😃

[@JamesFrederick-p6k]

You pass my house

[@travel_with_phil]

I did, which part?

[@YahsdaughterJD]

Most people live in poverty in St Vincent. Tourists get to explore the island and enjoy what it has to offer more than the locals. I was a child when I visited both salt pond and Bequia. Lots of places to visit but no money. Money is for bills and what's left is for food.

[@ike6209]

Facts

[@travel_with_phil]

Unfortunately that is the same story even in Africa, especially growing up. I am grateful that I am able to explore the world and I don't take it for granted at all.

[@hillieduvalier]

That's by designed .. it a plot of evil ppl to keep african and caribbean poor, but we rise and not living the worst.. our standards of living has come a long way , than a lot of ountries, yet far to go, so Phil when africa rise , so will the Caribbean

[@LaVaughnRob]

That comment about MOST of SVG living in poverty is soo incorrect. Been there recently. That was not my experience.

[@TheOnly.Sereina]

Bearly any body lives in poverty here.

[@JamesFrederick-p6k]

Can you drive

[@travel_with_phil]

Yes I can but I prefer to use public transport 😊

[@jerryrogers3310]

Waaaaaw st.vincent and the grenadines beautiful beautiful I like your Caribbean videos I will be there next month for the vincy hottest carnival in the world from the videos I see compare

[@travel_with_phil]

SVG is beautiful, and the vibe is so positive. You will enjoy your time there for sure ❤❤❤

[@frankhabimana3797]

Hello i need your 4ne namber i will be there soon really i will need your help

[@travel_with_phil]

Hi, you can dm me on Instagram but I don't leave

[@doreenramsey1016]

More like George hill!

[@travel_with_phil]

George Hill?

[@jerryrogers3310]

One comment said that svg have poverty it is a big big big lie lie lie i was there before did not see it that is why i am going back for the carnival haters they were broke so they think the people is just as broke as them fire

[@ShayonFerdinand-j9o]

I Love me my island

[@travel_with_phil]
