Posts: 282Random thoughts regarding the top 3 Caribbean Honey Holes, with SXM!
Will mongering ever be the same? Glad I'm on the downslope and have put my time in on Aruba, SXM, and Finally Curacao last fall, before the pandemic has changed the world. Since chatter is light, obviously due to the islands being shut down, want to throw out my thoughts and get input from the senior members to see if our top Caribbean destinations will ever be the same again.
1) Aruba. I was never really a fan of the bars here and did all my damage during the day cruising the alleys and setting up after work excursions. Bars aren't super packed and the daytime / nighttime alley drives do give adequate social distancing. Someone on the Aruba board asked what the current situation is. Have no idea. But if there are chicas stuck there. There is enough of an island clientele to keep them up and running.
2) St. Maarten. This is the tricky one. The honey hole, being Carolinas. Gets packed. With cruise ship passengers, cruise ship crew, tourists, locals, government officials. LOL. Place rocks. Can you imagine being in there at 2:00 pm During the day and having to wear a mask and talk to chicas wearing a mask? Sorry, doesn't work for me. And the same would be at any other casa, but Carolinas has the highest volume.
3) Barbados, Bonaire, and the DR. I've never visited so can't comment.
4) Lastly, Curacao. Saw one Dominicana was MIA, but someone on the Curacao board cleared up the fact that she bugged out of Campo and went AWOL. Anyway, this venue is the only one I see working in this pandenic, and I've only been there once. The social distancing and the outdoor environment in the hot sun. Not sure what virus could survive, that's not hidden in someone's pants. Still the issue remains about how close a chica will let you get to her. Will there be a Covid-19 surcharge to kiss? To even get close? And what used to be negotiable or attainable is now off the table?
Bottom line, is this sucks and unless there's a real quick fix to the transmission of this virus. We will all have to be thinking with the bigger head on this one. Just learned another big sports star NBA legend has tested positive. No answer to the dilemma but since reports are few and understandably non-existent, would appreciate some input from the senior posters on the dilemma and thoughts moving forward.

Posts: 176Bet the girls that are stuck on the island are offering excellent freelance rates at the minute. Really want to go over as my fav girl is on island still. I may check out flights in July if there is no quarantine.
Be interesting to see how quickly the girls come back when the clubs re-open, Also the island is going suffer without the cruise ships passengers, fingers crossed there are no big hurricanes this year.

All the chicas went home a long time ago.

SXM is reopening business in phases similar to everywhere else in the world. I believe they are only allowing residents to return now and they must quarantine for 14 days. I'm heading back after summer when things should be somewhat "normal" again.
