Getting tired of winter and cold, grey, snowy or rainy weathers and are you starting to dream about a little paradise escape? There are plenty of hidden pearls to pick from around the world. Plenty of beautifully unspoiled natural treasures around if you only know where to look. I've picked four of my favourite undervalued and untouristy ones that can give you all the beauty you want and a chance to get your photos and memories with out all the other tourists in the same spots. Marcas beach, Trinidad 1. Isla de Vieques   Puerto Rico is a beautiful country located in the Caribbean sea. It is technically an American State, but it has very little in common with the country up north. The culture of Puerto Rico is quite independent of the 50 states. One of my favorite islands in Puerto Rico is Vierques. Since Puerto Rico is an archipelago, it is worth mentioning the differences between the islands.This little pearl consists of a national wildlife refuge with numer...

Ever daydreaming of Caribbean Islands with crystal blue waters, white empty beaches, mojitos on the beach while lying in a hammock and just enjoy the relaxed, chilled lifestyle of the Caribbean while humming along on old Bob Marley tunes? Doesn’t sound too bad, does it? Trinidad and Tobago is a beautiful little country located in the Caribbean Sea just waiting for you.

Like many of the Caribbean Islands Trinidad and Tobago has a history of slavery and colonization. The name of the Capital, being Port of Spain, gives away much of the history. This was one of the places Christopher Columbu...

Puerto Rico is a beautiful country located in the Caribbean sea. It is technically an American State, but it has very little in common with the country up north. The culture of Puerto Rico is quite independent of the 50 states. The culture is a unique mixture of cultures primarily the Caribbean, but closely related to the culture of Spain with a few African and Taino influences. The capital San Juan is the place to go if you want to experience a mixture of something old and new. Whilst wandering through the narrow streets in an old town, you could meet someone who would teach you salsa and reggaeton, a town where everyone knows how to dance with the hips. Culebra San Juan, Old San Juan is the Capital city and home to many old 17th and 18th-century historic buildings and quite a few forts build to protect the island. This makes it a true pleasure to walk through the old city. You feel like you are transported back in time to an old pirate town. When you walk through the h...
