Tour Montserrat With Us | Tiny Volcanic Island | Giant In Music History
In this vlog, learn more about Montserrat with us, as we tour this beautiful island.
Some Facts About Montserrat:
1. Montserrat is a volcanic island in the South-Eastern Caribbean.
2. Montserrat’s Soufriere Hills volcano, which had been dormant for centuries, became active in July 1995, erupted, and buried the capital city of Plymouth, which is considered a modern-day Pompeii. The most recent eruption of Montserrat’s Soufriere Hills volcano was on June 25, 1997.
3. After the eruptions, the majority of the island’s population fled the island, mostly for the United Kingdom.
4. The population in Montserrat, at present, is approximately 5000 people.
5. Being a volcanic island, most of Montserrat’s beaches are black sand beaches.
6. Montserrat can be visited by small aircrafts, ferries, and other boats of similar size. The most straightforward way to Visit Montserrat is by flying from Antigua.
7. Montserrat is called the Emerald Isle of the Caribbean due to its Irish heritage and also its lush green land.
8. Montserrat is the only country outside of Ireland to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day as a national holiday. The St. Patrick’s Day celebration is the biggest celebration of the year on the island.
9. Montserrat is especially well-known in the music industry thanks, in part, to AIR Studios Montserrat, a state-of-the-art recording studio built by Sir George Martin, world-renowned producer of the Beatles. This is where Stevie Wonder recorded “Ebony and Ivory” with Paul McCartney. Many other artists, including Elton John, Marvin Gaye, Duran Duran, and Eric Clapton recorded at AIR Studios Montserrat.
10. Arrow, also known as the Might Arrow, the original artist who created the soca hit “Hot Hot Hot” is Montserratian. He recorded “Hot Hot Hot” at AIR Studios Montserrat.

Caribbean Trip #2 (Dominica island)
We Found Paradise in St. Vincent and the Grenadines | Union Island
#Wefoundparadise #Unionisland #mopionisland #stvincent #Stvincentandthegrenadines
Just want to inform you We Found Paradise in St. Vincent and the Grenadines | Union Island.
That’s right, we are still Island hopping and having a blast. In the last video, we visit the tiny Island of Mayreau where only 300 people live. Now we are visiting Union Island. We go on a boat tour to visit Mopion Island. It’s the most beautiful place. The island just houses an umbrella in the middle of it. We enjoyed swimming in the beautiful pristine waters. We even enjoyed a delicious lunch. After 3 hours of hanging out at Mopion Island, we left. Our next stop was Petit St. Vincent, and we passed Palm Island. Before heading back to Union Island, we stopped by Happy Island for a drink. We had a smoothie and met the owner of happy Island. What an unforgettable day!!
Hope you enjoyed Island hopping with us!

► WHO WE ARE?
We are Gladys & Kenny, from Long Island, NY. We've always had a passion for traveling. We finally made our dreams a reality. In January 2018 we downsized and take the necessary steps to pursue our dream, to travel full time for as long as we can. We rented our house, moved into our attached studio apartment, and continued to travel on a part-time basis until it prepared us for full-time travel. On June 30, 2019, we left to travel the world full-time. The first stop was Bali, Indonesia. It wasn't a simple decision to leave our friends and family. However, you only live once and we didn't want to live with any regrets. We want to document our journey, so we recently did so with vlogs on YouTube and Social Media.
Join us. It's been one crazy ride so far.

Montserrat Food & Wine
This is a full day tour, and it has been designed for those that can and want to invest a whole day outside of Barcelona. It involves more free time than our other tours, making it a more exhaustive option to discover the Montserrat area and everything it has to offer. However, the shared content and information is the same than in the shorter versions of this tour, like the Montserrat, Tapas and Wine. Sink deep into the countryside surrounding Barcelona thanks to this unforgettable day!
Montserrat, Tapas & Wine
This is a morning half day tour, conceived as a condensed version of our longer Montserrat, Food and Wine. It aims at dropping you off early in the afternoon. It’s the right tour for you if you would like to have some free time in the afternoon or evening in Barcelona, to keep on touring around or even flying out. The shared content and information are the same than in longer versions of this tour! However, it has less free time throughout the experience. Make the most out of our wine country in just one long morning!
