Travelling across Central America and the Caribbean
Despite the fact that Central America and the Caribbean area have been conquered and occupied by Spanish, British, French and Dutch colons who imported a lifestyle, a new religion and slavery, very little remains of these subsequent European civilizations in the very soul of this part of the world where everything seems ineluctably linked to the dark strengths of nature which govern the world and rule the universe as well as to all the ancient gods worshipped in the huge pyramid temples, true representations of all the mysterious strengths of nature. Cult of nature was so important and deep that local pre-Colombian civilizations did not hesitate to offer human sacrifices to their gods to keep them happy and ask for their protection. This is a fact that you do not have to forget all along your travel across Central America and the Caribbean, this land and this sea still belongs to the ancient gods. Do not spoil a magical travel and avoid hotel reservations, choose a vacation rental for your holiday such as a villa on the sea with swimming pool or a luxury condo with terrace on the sea.
Falling in love in French in the Antilles
French Antilles are a very interesting cocktail of French "insouciance" and Vaudo local myths. Enjoy the sweetness of French language and manners in Guadeloupe or in Martinique but beware of the mighty Vaudou religion which is here particularly strong. Its beliefs and codes still have a great influence and a strong power on everything that happens in these wonderful places. Enjoy bathing under crystalline and transparent water of a cascade after a whole day walk to the peak of the volcano mountains before bathing again in a hot water lagoon naturally supplied by the heat of the Soufrière, before finding the lavish and elegant atmosphere of your villa on the sea in the Antilles.
Sail across the Mangrove and its mysterious natural environment captivating like a natural jail of mighty trees and branches, visit the natural park Cousteau and try yourself at a snorkelling sessions among corals and seafish or simply enjoy the calm and the peace of a beach in Deshayes watching the sunset burning of hundreds flames, whatever you decide to do in the Caribbean area is always blessed by the mighty strengths of nature to which you deserve respect. You will enjoy St. Barth exclusive atmosphere and its trendy-chic villas haunted with VIP and people from all over the world and the double identity of St Martin, a half Dutch speaking and half French speaking island, true paradise of casinos and players.
Mexico and Guatemala, ancient temples under the fire of the volcano
Wherever you travel across Guatemala and Mexico from one side to the other of the two Oceans you will find nothing but archaeological sites and ancient towns built by pre-Colombian civilizations. You will be amazed to discover that Egyptian pyramids and Babylonian zigurrat are very present in this part of the world where huge temples are built in subsequent rising terraces upto the highest level where all sacrifices used to take place. You may feel the charm of the Spanish haciendas and catholic missions scattered all around these countries, their baroque atmosphere and their sweet wooden coloured statues may surely bewitch you but if you are a smart traveler you will feel that these new incoming cults and religions have changed but nothing at all in the profound and deep soul of Central America where ancients gods are very much still alive and where the mighty Quetzalcoatl, the Plumed Serpent is still flying high in the sky dominating its kingdom.
Enjoy living in a colonial property in Guatemala in front of a mountain lake by a volcano, you will not regret the very exclusive atmosphere of colonial style wooden fittings and furniture as well as the lively coloured linen handmade worked, sewed and embroidered by local workers. Lavish villas on the sea in Cancun and in Cabo San Lucas will allow you to live like a star of Hollywood show biz, you will seriously have the possibility to drink a Tequila in Casamigos with George Clooney, Cindy Crawford and Julia Roberts sitting at the next table. Mexico is now indeed the ultimate destination for stars and VIP who love having their own luxury haciendas or villas with swimming pool on the beach in this part of the world.
