I’ve been to Nevis. It’s beautiful, gorgeous beyond description. It is very peaceful now with an educated sharp minded and wise African descended Mayor. The black kids there are studious and well-behaved.
Contrast that with neighboring St. Kitts island, less than a half mile away across the water where crime, drunkenness and bad behavior are on display. The difference could not be starker.
Nevis is a tax haven and is populated by billionaires walking anonymously on the beach unshaven and wearing cutoff jeans.
The people on Nevis understand very well their legacy and that of Alexander Hamilton. His history is displayed at city hall and in shops, practically everywhere.
Hamilton came to America from Nevis as a result of a devasting hurricane (global warming?) that ripped up the island. He wrote about the hurricane and its aftermath for a journal circulated among well to do English traders. It was this article that landed him a scholarship in the colonies. He was a gifted writer, born with a great mind.
For all that have the opportunity, visit Nevis, avoid St. Kitts, you will love it and probably want to live there.
Thank you for the background info!
