How long my wife and I spend in Barbados is anyone’s guess at this stage. We certainly have to return to the real world over the summer.

This blog may end up documenting our transition into permanent residents, or a short-lived, enjoyable but unsuccessful experiment.

A lot of it is down to how well we adapt to life on a small island – living here is definitely a very different experience to visiting for two or three weeks – not to mention our employment and immigration statuses!

No matter how long we’re in Barbados, I hope that through my photography and writing I can offer an interesting glimpse of the nature, people and culture of this beautiful island.

Plus of course some amusing anecdotes and insights (and the occasional infuriated rant) from an outsider trying to adapt to Bajan life, and looking back at the UK from afar.
