Good morning, everyone. My Lucian partner is currently staying in Grenada and it seems his rental is too far up the hill to get water pressure. He's been without running water for 2 days now, but I'm seeing that a lot of people have been without for much, much longer. Short of him picking up and moving North, leaving behind the work he's managed to find in St. George, how are people coping with this? He managed to find two large jugs of water for now but obviously the cost of that is not sustainable long term. The house has a storage tank, but it's empty and the landlord's request for a refill has gone unanswered for two weeks.

Hello!

I am doing a research project on the Caribbean diaspora. I am looking to see what would entice diasporans to return to the region, what would entice people to remain in the region, and what makes people stay in the region. There is a USD $25 cash prize in the form of a virtual gift card for four participants which will be chosen at random.

The survey takes approximately five to ten minutes to complete depending on how in depth your answers are.

Thank you for taking the time to do the survey!

Hello, has anyone attended the Grenada Chocolate Fair? I am visiting Grenada and wanted to attend the dinner and tastings. Was wondering if the dinner is worth the price?

Hey guys, I'm just curious if anyone knows how the tech industry is on the island. I am finishing up some school for a program related to cyber security and am hoping to move to the island with my wife and build a home on some land we own there. I'm just curious if there are many opportunities for jobs in this area or anything related?

Hi there just wondering if anyone knows of any Grenada restaurants in USA or Canada. Thanks.

Hi Everybody! I visited Grenada earlier this year and really enjoyed my time there, so much so that I wanted to come back for Carnival.

Obviously I have left this pretty late, but I wanted some advice on finding reasonable accommodations and flights.

I’m coming from the US, so a direct flight is absurdly expensive and out of budget — does anyone know if there’s a way to fly to a nearby country and then into Grenada that is cheaper? Maybe Barbados?

Also, in terms of lodging and transportation, any tips for finding reasonable prices? Need some hacks!

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you! :)

I (26F) will be travelling to Grenada at the end of June & wanted to find out about the nightlife in Grenada.

Are there any local hotspots, cruises (party boats), clubs or events that I should be aware of?

Any info. would be greatly appreciated ☺️

Hello , I am a student from India and would like to know about medicine school in Grenada and it's fees structure. Should I come here to study medicine or not ?

We're major beach people and might come to Grenada this fall due to it being out of the Hurricane Belt and it's supposed lack of sargassum. We just had to cancel our Turks and Caicos plans. We love it there, as a reference. So I have to ask if this would be a place we'd be happy with in comparison? Is it actually on the beach? How is the sargassum on Grand Anse beach ( I'm aware it can change)?

I am very interested in learning Grenadian French Creole. I know there was a Creole Society but I haven't seen them be active online. I did realize that a lof of words and phrases my family and I use when talking to each other did seem French but I didn't know until during the pandemic that besides English, Grenadian Creole existed. Does anyone happen to know of any resources to learn? I could just pick up French but I thought it would be cool to learn the Grenadian Creole.

I was walking on the beach yesterday in Grenada and overheard a great song and I am trying to ID it.

It was a male singer, I believe the voice was a tad on the higher end, kinda sounded like King Promise although not sure if it was him or not

Unfortunately the only clue I have is that the song had the word 'executioner' in it.

I did some digging trying to find it and it wasn't King Promise's 'Terminator,' FYI

Many thanks

I have some things that I want to send down to a friend in Grenada if anyone has room in their suitcase. Trying to avoid crazy expensive shipping charges.

I'm in St. Catharines, Ontario.

Calling all critical thinkers and those with special interests!

I have made it a mission of mine to be in every reddit sub for every nation on the earth (or at least the ones in english).

I am trying to gauge interest in any who wish to bring their passion and knowledge in a category to join a groupchat (on the dinosaur of a platform known as Facebook).

What im looking for and why:

My whole life ive been interested in different countries and cultures and the idea of having an 18+ groupchat in which many nations have a bit of representation its a dream come true. Id love to have people who are educated and capable of deep discussion about various topics.

Criteria

1. Have a special interest in any field politics, philosphy, history, heck even those proficient in film music or theatre.

2. You can take a joke. Its a fairly on task group chat however id say the only stuff that is censored as far as words go is any words pertaining to race or explicitly sexual material.

3. You are respectful of different religions. The group chat is very commonly excercising various different belief standpoints and jokes as long as they are in good taste are perfectly acceptable

What to expect:

1. Debates: these can range in a variety of topics from politics to history to science. And they can border on "heated" but at the end we are all just trying to learn and any oversteps will result in bans after a warning if course

2. Varied religious backgrounds id say the group is about 65% Christian 35% atheist but everyone in there is comfortable with sharing details about their religion free of ridicule aside from the lighthearted jokes. We have also recently added some others majority of which are Muslim.

3. The group right now is majorly american but there has been a fair bit of canadians that have joined and left over the three years the groupchat has been around. We recently got some members Azerbaijan, Bahrain, and Germany

4. Right now we have experts in the following categories

Cryptocurrency TV Shows and Pop culture Philosophy American Law World History Military History Video Game History Meteorology

The group is probably like 45% autistics with special interests so we pride ourselves on knowing our craft.

5. Each month I post news articles from every nation's internet news source in alphabetical order usually a letter a day. And we monitor and disccus the conflicts happening abroad

6. The group is 100% male which wasnt even by design thats just how its gone so far but there isnt a gender requirement one way or the other.

The donts:

No excessive meme spam. I tend to allow discussions with GIFS but depending on how many join the chat, theres no need for excessive memes

No posting sexual or graphic material some mems walk the line but never cross it.

No racial slurs

The creator of the GC is the final authority on everything

The point of the GC is to engage and have fun. If somebody is going a month without at least reading the posts then you shouldnt have joined in the first place silly! Inactives are often removed after one month.

Lets educate eachother! The goal is to increase comradery and learm about eachother cultures.

As of right now im wanting natives to whatever nation I post this in (as I intend to copy and paste) and depending on traction Im going to try and invite either the first people who respond or the most educated.

If you want to leave a rude comment or something about how you have better things to do go ahead! This is reddit after all!

But at least for the sake of being entertaining lets avoid repeats so far ive heard

Incelfest

Sausagefest

Pretentious

Arrogant

Red pills

Sounds like Hell

Remember we are looking for people who want to make friends and debate ideas not people who think themselves witty comedians.

I was wondering if it’s possible to bring my own modem and router from the states to work with Grenada provider flow?

Guys - the top up is confusing, and even a conversation with the agent didn’t clear things up. I have five free days with the new Sim Card purchase. I see I can top up with any amount like 13.50 or 20 XCD without buying a prime plan. What will be the per megabyte of per call charges and what is the validity time for the 13.50 and 20 topups, does anybody know? I am only purchasing this for Emergency calls and will not be using much at all since the hotel has Wi-Fi everywhere. Thanks

Is there a place to rent a motorcycle or ebike like a surron here. I am traveling there and would love to explore this way.

So my friend (from Nigeria) has an expired Grenadian passport. He tried to get this passport renewed almost 2 years ago. The passport office claims there is a backlog of passport renewals and therefore they can’t renew his passport and they also cannot tell him when it will be renewed. Is anyone else experiencing this? I’ve never heard of anyone having to wait this long for a new passport. Is this legal? Can anyone offer some advice for what he should do? Thank you

Edit: Just want to clarify this is a passport obtained by the citizenship by investment programme.

Anyone knows the requirements for Grenadian nationals to work remotely for US based companies based of experience or knowledge from anyone they know that does it? I need help/advice because my friend is interested however I do not know requirements

Anyone know what days/times Nats Pizza is open?

Folks - after landing for our first 2-week trip , our first accommodation is in the north, but we do cook a lot. Should I simply purchase things at a grocery store in the north or perhaps better to stop at like CKs super value or real value IGA since it’s on the way. I have a suspicion that some of the items we are looking for would not be stocked everywhere - quinoa, lentils, red rice, brown rice, black rice, oatmeal. Let me know what grocery store you suggest that is also affordable - thanks

Hey! Just wondering if anyone can recommend excursions or events that are taking place between the 11th- 14th of April?

Looking forward to diving into the culture- is there any rideshare app?

Guys - if we get unpackaged but raw food, are things like home-made granola, mixed rice, 2 loaves of bread etc? We have a chef in the family so it's an assortment of things and we like to eat well on vacation. I'm sure some of these things are available there but he's quite particular. Will customs ask to dispose it off? Some online reports are vague but if anybody has an article that details all this, it'll help

Thanks

Hey r/grenada,

I’m an American staying at one of the beautiful beach resorts here this week. I’d like to rent a car for a day or two to spend some time exploring spice plantations, waterfalls, and a rum distillery.

My hotel has an “excursions” desk that promises they’ll be able to rent me a car, but I worry that they’ll have a very inflated rate.

Should I go to the airport to rent? Are there any other options you’d recommend? What would I expect to pay to hire a taxi for the day?

Many thanks!
