    An EDM festival on St. Thomas feels like an obvious thing thing to do to make it a spring break destination, that comes with good and bad, I hope it doesn't dilute the local culture and festivals and music, but I will definitely check it out 👀. The pirate adventure is an awesome idea to do in the area, again - that should have been an obvious thing to do since pirates of the carribbean popularized pirates who once terrorized the seas in that area - I'm surprised I'd never heard of it, I'm going to check it out for sure as it looks sick!! Thanks for the list Camilla I've been down the the VIs once thanks to your videos and I'll probably bring my family again next year to try some of these out!

    treasure hunting in the waters Blackbeard once sailed hahaha wow....very coool we're deciding between going to Puerto Rico again or visiting the Virgin Islands for the first time. I've seen your videos before and it's what's made me think about it ever since. now just have to convince my lady to watch a grown man play pirates of the caribbean!

    • @CamillaJohannesen
      @CamillaJohannesen  Před rokem +2

      Haha, I know, it felt pretty cool! And the Virgin Islands have such a wild pirate history, it's super interesting! But what did you like about PR? We've been there too, but we 100% prefer the USVI, but they are SO different! Please feel free to ask me any questions you or your girl might have! I think the beaches, the drinks etc are all better in the Virgin Islands. And yes, then the fact that you can play pirates from the Caribbean is pretty wild haha! You can even chose to buy a little piece of jewelry and put it in the treasure chest, so when you guys find the treasure it's something for her in there too haha!

      @@CamillaJohannesen we went in the first week of July in 2022, honeymoon trip. The hike to Santa Maria is not bad. Minutely scary first time but I watched Marcus’ videos and felt confident in doing it with just my wife along. The uphill was worse, wife forgot her inhaler and might not be a hiker. She asked to go again to that beach this year. It was our favorite beach with the absolute best sand. Like powder. The cable car looks sketchy but I want to say I’ve done it.
      Drive down to Bordeaux Bay. It’s easily accessible by a brave driver.

    • @CamillaJohannesen
      @CamillaJohannesen  Před rokem +2

      Ohh that's the perfect way to spend the honeymoon! Thank you so much for suggesting that! Maybe we should have Marcus join our video next time, and do the hike with him! He's actually my good friends cousin, and we've been trying to meet! But I'm happy your wife had a good time regardless, and I really want to try it now! Did you bring some snacks and water etc, because I'm assuming it's nothing there right? And yes, the cable cars look fun, so let me know if you end up dong it! You can test them haha!
