You open the fridge, reach past the leftover rice on the middle shelf, and find the strawberries you bought two days ago already soft. Not the store’s fault. Not bad luck. You put them on the upper shelf because there was room, and the upper shelf runs 3 to 5 degrees warmer than the shelf … Lire plus
Here’s a fact most people get wrong before they even land: Barbados has no Caribbean Sea coastline. The island sits entirely in the Atlantic Ocean, the easternmost point in the Lesser Antilles chain, roughly 100 miles east of Saint Lucia. You think you’re booking a Caribbean trip.

They rise 2,619 feet (Gros Piton) and 2,461 feet (Petit Piton) from the Caribbean Sea at the island’s southwest corner, and they’re not decorative.
