Budget kiteboarding accommodation

Ok, the only really crappy thing about living here (apart from the road hazards that is) has just been removed.

Now matter how much you love your life in a foreign country, your body (or stomach) just cannot help craving those items that you loved to eat in England. Only British people can cope with eating Marmite for example – we grew up on it and it has been one of the MUST BUYS for me on each return to the UK. Baked Beans too – but let me tell you, it does not take many cans to put you over your luggage allowance.

Well the new Dollar Store between Cabarete and Sosua which opened just over one week ago has just made my life that little bit more enjoyable than it already is. There’s a friendly British couple who have invested the money in bringing a container in of those British MUST BUYS. Colmans English Mustard, real British sausages, back bacon, Twiglets, Quavers, Lyles Golden Syrup, etc etc. All the items that we could not buy here and missed so much.

I am a happy bunny for that!
