Traveling to St. Barthelemy.

 


Before I can travel to Saint Barthelemy, as a U.S citizen I must have a passport or a birth certificate with a photo ID including a return or ongoing plane ticket to enter St. Barts. During this coronavirus era visitors who are age 10+ must present a negative COVID-19 PRC test within 3 days prior to your arrival in St. Barts. After getting all the requirement, you're set to go for your vacation and enjoy. The easiest way to get to St. Barts is to fly out. It take 6 hours to get to St. Barts by flight and the flight price ranges from $921-$1,792. The principal gateway to St Barts is through Juliana Airport located in the Dutch side of St Maarten, where 22 scheduled airlines arrive daily from 34direct flights from the USA, Canada, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean. The most expensive hotel (5-star) cost $2,221 and the least expensive hotel cost $721. Also most of the hotels comes with their packages like breakfast, Spa-treatment and many more. The official currency of St. Barths is Euro but US dollars and major credit cards are widely accepted throughout the Islands (1 Euro = 1 USD).

When I get to St. Bart I would visit places like Gustavia which is the capital, it is a small harbor town and the best place for shopping. Beaches like Lorient, Colombier, Kitesurfing at Grand Cul de Sac, Saline, St. Jean, Gouverneur and Flamands are also nice places to visit as well. Along side the beaches they also have a fishing village called Corossol but sometimes called "straw village". They also have a red and white lighthouse that was built on the site in 1961 called Fort Gustave. Also I am a content creator (Youtuber) so I will be doing interesting videos so I can post it on my channel.

I am an epicure, I will not trade my food for anything so I would  want to try all their food as much as possible. They have delicious cuisines like steamed vegetables with fresh fish in the common dishes which comes with spring roll of shrimp and bacon, fresh grilled lobster, Chinese noodle salad with coconut milk, and grilled beef fillet and many more. 

Going to Saint Barths is somehow expensive. I think I am going to budget $6000 USD, because I want to have a good vacation and visit a lot of tourist site.

SELF-ASSESSMENT.   So far, I feel like I am doing a great job in this class and also with my blogs. Whiles taking this class I want to improve on my writing and with the every week blog we write is really helpful. Researching for information's is the stressful part for me because I have to find accurate fact about the country or whatever I am writing on. But it is also somehow interesting because I learn a lot about different countries, their history, culture, cuisine and many more. I put a lot of effort in writing my blogs because at the end of the day, it will be scored so I have to put in a lot of work to get a good grade. I really do procrastinate a lot which I am not proud of it but at least I try my possible best to do all my assignment and submit it before the due date.

I feel very comfortable when my colleague or when any other person read my

"About Me"

  Hi, My name is Esinu Marfo but I prefer to be called Esi. I was born and raised in Ghana. I moved to United States at the age of 15, currently I live in Snellville.   I graduated from North Clayton High School which I got admitted into Gwinnett College majoring in Computer Science. I would also love to further in midwifery and start working after College.  I’m passionate about Midwifery due to the rampant incidents of women dying from pregnancy and during childbirth. Last year,  one of my favorite female YouTubeber "NicoleThea" died whiles giving birth, I was dolorous upon hearing the news but also it challenged me to focus and work harder to achieve my dreams.   I am a humanitarianism, quiet and a shy type.   I also have a YouTube channel to keep myself busy, share my views on things to my audience  and  it has really helped me a lot. I really like the editing part of my video's.  I am not the type who really likes writing but whiles taking this class, I want to improv
