WHAT I LIKED

In October, I went to Tobago with my mum, dad and brother Magnus. We stayed in Castara, a fishing village, in a little wooden house on top of a hill. Everyone was so friendly, and the beaches and wildlife were amazing.

WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE

Only the humidity and the mosquitoes.

WHAT I BOUGHT

A T-shirt that says "Tobago" on it for myself, and a shell necklace for my mum.

WHAT I ATE AND DRANK

For breakfast watermelon; for lunch a "roti" (like curry in a wrap, but more tasty); and for dinner either a "bus-up-shut" (a type of roti) or kingfish, which we cooked. We drank Carib shandy.

WHAT I SAW

A horsewhip snake in a tree, a giant caterpillar, a huge moth, a big centipede, hummingbirds, a shark, a turtle and a pod of dolphins.

WOULD I GO BACK?

Yes, but I would like to be able to dive next time I go.
