robert: trinidad is small but overflowing with an almost absurd melting pot of cultures, music and food. the capital city port of spain is a great place to start any journey to this island nation. but now we're jumping out of our comfort zone to explore the natural beauty of the rest of the island. then it's on to tobago, trinidad's smaller but equally fascinating sister island. travel! for some it's a luxurious escape, or maybe an adrenaline filled adventure. but if you're like me, it's a precious opportunity to discover and to give back. it's time to get real. it's time to get raw. it's time for raw travel!
