Caye Caulker, Belice.


Right now i'm on Caye Caulker, an Island off the coast of Belice. Formerly British Honduras this little Central American countries first language is English, which feels quite strange after so long in Spanish speaking surroundings.

The cultural change from Guatemala & Mexico to here is huge, This is the Caribbean proper, with the majority of Islanders being black rather than latino. The people here are amazing, super chilled and super nice. The most refreshing aspect is that when you talk a local person, they're not trying to sell you shit.

Yesterday I went spearfishing on the reef, a short boat ride off the island coast took us to stunning water bursting with wildlife on the worlds second largest reef after the GBR in Australia. Another great day in the tropics which ended in a barbecue of our catch. Tough times...
