Our villa this time was a slight step – with a stunning view up but far from grand – we had a baby on the way after all. We were in spiritual nesting mode and admittedly, I was bare-bellied the entire time admiring my expanding body and the precious life I held inside. During my pregnancy we visited St Barths again, a babymoon so to speak. A few years later Victor and I got married and a few years after that we had a baby on the way. Let’s remember I was 20 years old, so I may need to recalibrate your expectations of our “villa.” It was a teeny one bedroom bungalow up in the hills and although it was not glamorous in any way, boy was it heaven. The island offered such beauty and adventure as I was falling in love on my very first adult holiday, it was truly indescribable. Getting lost on foot, uphill for hours as we left that beach at sundown may not be my favorite moment, but still made for a unforgettable memory and hilarious story.
#Minute of islands memories how to
It was also the first time I had ever vacationed in a villa as opposed to an all-inclusive spring break-style hotel…I am a Long Island girl after all! Oh, the memories I have from that trip will forever be rooted inside me…relearning how to drive stick shift on a hilly island (not recommended BTW), packing a lunch daily and discovering the many unique beaches scattered about the island – in particular the 20 minute hike down to the remote and romantic Colombier Beach. I was 20 years old at the time and had yet to experience a holiday so breathtaking and decadent. St Barths holds a special place in my heart – this stunning French Caribbean island was the very first vacation I ever took with my then boyfriend, Victor.
