Discover Trinidad & Tobago 2018 (#29)

Discover T&T has published 29 issues since 1991, and helps readers discover where to stay, dine, lime, party, and shop; and what to see (including the islands’ best sites) and experience (festivals, arts and culture, sports, and eco escapes), in both islands. There’s also a national calendar of events; info on getting here and getting around; tips for safe and sustainable travel; T&T history and society in a nutshell, maps; and more. For the third edition in the row, the magazine features a distinctive dual-cover design, with one cover for each island — a ruby topaz humming- bird photographed in the Arima Valley (photograph by Wendell Stephen Jay Reyes) and the relaxing scene of someone lounging atop a glass- bottom boat in the Nylon Pool (photograph by Tarique Eastman). Discover T&T is aimed at local and international explorers planning getaways to the islands — whether for an eco adventure, business trip, or beach holiday. For more: http://www.discovertnt.com

It’s complicated, as host Anthony<br />

Bourdain concluded on CNN’s Parts<br />

Unknown last year. <strong>Trinidad</strong>ians are<br />

every flavour of the Caribbean mixed<br />

up in one — and served with pepper.<br />

Playful, witty, warm, friendly, and colourful<br />

are just a few of the words used to describe<br />

Trinis. Home to rare and endangered species<br />

like the golden tree frog, and one of the<br />

most important global nesting sites of giant<br />

leatherback turtles, <strong>Trinidad</strong> is also the<br />

most industrialised island in the region. We<br />

are a hub for commerce, trade, shopping,<br />

entertainment, and ecological research. We<br />

are complex — spiritual yet sensual; a little<br />

crazy, but cool. The kind of people who can<br />

take old oil drums and hammer out an orchestra.<br />

Welcome to our magic<br />
