Message: [QUOTE="Marginal, post: 1510187, member: 63072"] A one hour flight to mainland Venezuela and Guyana. Tbh, we are not a tropical island. It may be considered so by most but the true fact is that there was a land form that use to connect Trinidad to Venezula when Columbus 'discovered' us and we are more Venezualan that true Caribbean (in terms of oil, land formation etc) and well Tobago is natural Caribbean beauty. 1 republic, 2 really different islands. Crime is really a huge issue and its in all forms. We are a connection for drug trafficing from South America to England and it is getting really bad now. I recon that the drug money coming in is what is keeping the country alive and keeping it from being a real hell hole. Seriously, the beaches and everything that make the Caribbean a premier tourist destination are by far inferior in Trinidad. compared to every other island (exception of Haiti which sad because they played such an important role in our history) [/QUOTE]
