Amazing drive

[@stephanielopez6528]

So kind and thoughtful of the driver in the white truck....

[@JBsManCave]

Yes, for sure, and he has the right of way.

[@lynch8418]

I had to pause. Cracking up at your comment when you were talking about how fresh the air is up there then compared to Port of Spain. ” The whole ah Port of Spain could use ah bush bath” 😂😂😂. I remember as a kid the few times we went there thinking why did it smell so bad at certain areas. So now I know that hasn’t changed.

[@JBsManCave]

Camille, glad to bring some joy. However, Port of Spain has gotten worst: Has Port of Spain been abandoned? kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJTOmpxon8-Yo80

Stephanie, you are funny.

[@ladymichellekcambridge6728]

I'm originally from San Fernando but migrated many years ago. I never heard of Paramin when I lived in Trinidad. I learned about Paramin later on in life and I researched it and looked at videos on KZbin and I say to myself I must go up there one day. I did in 2019. It was a wonderful experience. I hope when I visit 🇹🇹 this year I would love to do the trip again.

[@michellebarclay7574]

JB my favorite thing was the greenery with the hills and just the peacefulness and the sense of oneness with nature.

[@JBsManCave]

Michelle, yes, some parts are like that but every time I go up there it becomes less green and more with concrete. i guess I lament because I know how it used to be.

[@jaysonlowman8384]

Thanks JB I support your videos very nice job showcasing my beautiful Trinidad and Tobago especially seeing you do this to support your autistic kids, I can relate to you cuz I have a special needs granddaughter... wish you the best.

[@marleneaugustine9570]

The sky looks so close. An FYI for tourist or Trinis who have never been to the Maraval -Paramin area. Paramin is famous for planting seasoning - chive, pimento peppers, thyme etc. and vegetables. They also have an annual harvest a big event in November, and on Carnival Monday night Paramin is the place to be with the blue devils. Paramin is also known for parang music.

[@enavant7063]

Now, I am finding the time to watch this captivating road trip to Paramin. Went to Paramin as a young child, but not that far up. I would accept any opportunity to go on this trip, as long as I can be assured that the vehicle and the driver are safe and reliable. Actually felt like I was on this drive; thoroughly enjoyed it 💯👍

[@JBsManCave]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. There are drivers for hire that take you up there. They are accustomed to traversing the roads and give tours too. There is also a Part 1 to this feel free to look at that one where I go on different roads: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJmydGZunp5gaNk

I had the opportunity to meet a very interesting person, he was from Trinidad, I was surprised that we have a lot in common, after I started to study everything about Trinidad, but there was little information, and by chance I saw your channel, thank you very much. (my birthday is the day of the Republic of Trinidad and Tabago)

[@JBsManCave]

That is interesting... and should I take it as a special interest? 😉 You will surely get both the good, bad and the ugly about Trinidad and Tobago on my channel because unlike the others I focus on the reality of things.

What a crazy mountainous drive...my gosh...tourist would like it....people usually enquire about tours before going....but wow...not for me....

[@JBsManCave]

Stephanie, thanks for watching. Someone with vertigo or a fear of heights may not like it.

[@cherriestu]

lol I'm from Paramin and I'm also surprised and concerned seeing people be able to make it up the roads if they've never been.

[@jazzy8459]

Could u make it up with a car to the lookout?

[@JBsManCave]

Jazzy, you could so long as your vehicle can handle steep inclines and you are not with a lot of weight. I would also suggest getting to the lookout via the North Coast Road and not the usual way people use to get up Paramin.

[@martinPatsy]

I do appreciate your videos, I love the comfort of your voice/ accent

Drove up to Paramin for the fist time for the Republic day holiday in a Toyota Aqua which handled it very well. I used the route which brought me to the junction at 30:05 and turned right....

[@JBsManCave]

Thanks for sharing your experience driving up there. How many people were in your vehicle including yourself?

[@Marlon888ify]

@@JBsManCave Just 2 persons, me included. The car made it in normal drive mode with an average speed of 15 kph on the inclines. The cuts in the road added extra grip.

[@stephanielopez6528]

I had to stop after 25 mins....🤦‍♂️will complete tomorrow please God....good job J.B....excellent driving...stay safe

[@JBsManCave]

Stephanie, thank you kindly, you stay safe as well.

[@lynch8418]

Nope JB I won’t be going up there when I hopefully visit in June. I don’t like heights and the no rail thing has me very weary. I understand that it’s very expensive for the government to fund something like that but considering how close the houses are to the road especially at the “drop off” kind of turns 😳😧 I really think something should be implemented for at least certain spots. You’ll literally fall right on top of someone’s house. But what a beautiful drive minus the garbage. Love all of the trees. I think I’ve heard that the soil is very rich there also.

[@JBsManCave]

Camile, thanks for your comments as always. Yes, the soil is good and the atmosphere just right that they can even grow strawberries up there.

[@lynch8418]

@@JBsManCave Wow Strawberries

[@JBsManCave]

Camile, yes, but they are smaller in size than the ones in North America, but still it is quite an accomplishment considering our tropical temperatures.

[@rhonaramlal563]

GOVERNMENT should be able to provide proper roads in every corner of T&T. We have a Billion $$ economy which is being squandered and stolen.

I live up in Paramin and I myself am also a sucker for the views, so beautiful. Should definitely come, so many places to experience, from the rivers to the small beaches and views. And there's people from Paramin doing tours with Maxi's and jeeps so would recommend that. If you ever visit hope you have fun and enjoy it❤

[@0943715]

the person coming up the hill have the right way but also the driver coming down have to take it on the turns what is very steep or have to wait for the one what is coming up the hill to pass first

Hey brother great vids. Want to go up Paramin this week. I have a manual car. A friend said his Tucson strained to go up to the lookout. I was told by a resident to take the North Coast Road and then head wherever. Do you think the drive is manageable in the manual car (not van)?

[@JBsManCave]

Thank you kindly. Have a look at this video where I talk about it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJmydGZunp5gaNk

@@JBsManCave I reached up to the lookout but I did not go up to Paramin. Instead I went over via the Fond Pois Doux Road off of the North Coast Road on the advice of the resident.

it's a lovely views. is this the country side? Mr. JB"

[@JBsManCave]

Hey, just "JB" will suffice. Yes, great views. You could call it "country side" but I doubt the people of Paramin see it that way.

[@cherriestu]

as someone from Paramin I would more call it the countryside since people always mention village when they say Paramin. But I wouldn't call Paramin a village since it's a pretty big place, so yes it's kind of a countryside

[@michellebarclay7574]

JB in New York when you purchase a movie ticket you also purchase a seat, so there is no picking and choosing. Is it the same way in Trinidad? I honestly have forgotten.

[@JBsManCave]

Michelle, that only takes place in certain cinemas here. Even so, they allow you to choose where you want to sit so in the end they look for somewhere close to the next person.
