Where is your favorite place to travel in the Caribbean—and why?
"The Caribbean is one of the destinations I return to the most. With so many beautiful islands to choose from, you can make many return trips and have a different experience every single time. Aside from the gorgeous beaches, what I love about the Caribbean is its culture, food, and friendly locals. Having traveled to this part of the world many times, I often get asked what my favorite Caribbean island is and it is so hard to pick one when they are all so unique and beautiful in their own way.
However, if I had to pick, one of the frontrunners is St. Barths, nestled in the French West Indies. St. Barths is where I recall a taste of the Mediterranean, which reminds me of being close to home, but at the same time provides an amazing feeling of relaxation at a secluded beach. I love to spend my day wandering through the winding, small streets of Gustavia, gazing at the city marina and enjoying a bite in one of the island’s open-air cafés."
