What People Are Saying...

Let me "rush" to congratulate you on the good work you have done with your site. I too came to america and to this day remember the top 10 music hits in New York. That was 15 years ago, and it was Diana Ross, ain't no mountain high enough. Back to your website, Especially the works of Eric Williams, nicely done. Until today, I believed MIT TRINIs had the best webpage. My dear you have surpassed them by miles. Good luck, and I'll be revisiting your site from San Diego often. Anthony Pierre, pierre@monkfish.nosc.mil
Let me begin by saying thank you for the exceptional work you have done in presenting our beautiful home to the world. My only envy is that I could not have done it myself. My name is Mr. L. A. Daniel (Dan to my friends). I was born in the P.O.S General Hospital on April 9th, 1950. I lived in several places while growing up. Bourne's Road, St. James; Alyce Glen, Petit Valley -- not too far from Simeon Rd. where Sparrow lived. I do not know if he still lives there. I then moved to Covigne Rd. Diego Martin until I left Trinidad in 1970. Your HomePage is very educational. Please allow me to share in your pride of our beautiful Islands. I looked forward to the day when I can retire back home. Again Thank You for such a wonderful HomePage. Dan, ldaniel@pop.seanet.com
The post card pictures of both Trinidad and Tobago warmed my heart. It's been nearly three years since I've been there but the memories are just like yesterday. I've only been to T&T 5 or so times but it has had a great impact on my life knowing that Heaven is real! The people, the music, food and lifestyle is so desirous to me to want forever. Thank you for the illustrations. I only just got WebTV and happened to choose this site among the many thousands there seem to be on T&T. Keep up the great work. There are those who greatly appreciate it! George Marshall, BETHANY@webtv.net
Thank you very much for the information, and also allow me to congratulate you on a wonderful and very informative page. Your page in terms of design and presentation certainly deserves an A+++. I will add a link to your page from Caribbean Voice. It deserve all the exposure that it can get. I am sure happy to be Trinidadian when I see quality work like yours. Michael C. Smith, cvoice@wing.net,
Caribbean Voice Magazine
I've just been browsing your Tobago web pages, and I would like to convey my most heartfelt thanks to you.

I visited Tobago last summer and fell in love with the island. Seeing your postcards page in particular brought back some wonderful memories. I visited all of the places that you have pictures of, and it was really nice to be able to see them again (I don't have the photos that were taken).

Anyway maybe I'll get back to Tobago again one day and see them for real again. Once more thanks for maintaining such a cool site.

I am a student at the american university in washington d.c. i'm a trini who's been in the states for one year after winning a football scholarship in 1994, when we (princes town sen. comp.) won the national championship. anyway, i'm in the process of doing a huge project for a class here on "trini language and linguistics" and i must say that your trini directory helped me out alot! thanks girl! Deryck Roberts
I am writing to congratulate you on your homepage. I really enjoyed it, it was like I was home again. I am a seventeen year old college student at North Adams State College. I left my home, my friends and family three years ago and came to Boston. Your homepage reminds me so much of home, the beaches, the buildings and so forth. Congratulations on a job well done. Michelle Crawford, mcrawfo1@nasc.mass.edu
Hi Alana, just browsing around and stumbled on your page....excellent work. It's refreshing to see something about Trinidad & Tobago especially now that the snow has started to fall and Trinis all over have a yearning for home. Keep up the brilliant work.... Sheldon Millette, cbm@compmore.net
Loved the poem! I've loved Trinidad since first discovering soca (typical, huh?) few years back. I particularly like it when I feel I have been given an education online, as is the case with this particular poem. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! MoFete@aol.com
I immigrated to Canada 26 years ago during my late teens. Your Web Page was a significant discovery for me. It is very informative and really makes me feel home sick. I just cannot imagine how much work it takes to construct and maintain this page. Thanks very much for your time and effort ........and more importantly, for sharing your brilliant work with us! Art Ayow
I am a Trini and a Southman too, and after browsing your page I must say thank you. It is very interesting and the focus is broad, which for a person like myself is just wonderful. I am sure that I will be visiting your page again. Keep up the great work and God Bless. David Ragobar, ragobar@cll.on.ca
Good job! I found this page extraordinarily enjoyable and the simplicity with which you presented the information sets this page apart from the others. Keep up the good work! Ria Mykoo, 4rsm@qlink.queensu.ca
I have just finished browsing your home page. I was very impressed with it as you did not have just links. Reading your page I could almost feel your passion for Trinidad & Tobago. Keep up the good work. Joslyn Janet Weekes
I really enjoyed viewing the pictures of Trinidad and the descriptions of the various sites. This is great advertisement for Trinidad for foreigners who want information on Trinidad. The dialect was also a great idea. I'm happy to see that someone took the time to do something like this. Keep up the good work! Lauren Rosales
A rather superb presentation of the natural beauty of our islands plus a few choice words was enough to stir the heart of an old-timer who forsook those shores so long ago. Despite being there for the carnival this year, I shall be going back for a short stay this winter. Thanks to you. Roshan Hanief, rhanief@cyberus.ca
Thanks for the pictures and narrative of Glorious T & T. Unfortunately, I am now painfully homesick!! My wife and I moved to the U.S. in 1985 and we try to keep up as best as we can with information from home. The internet and your site have made this much easier now. Chris Cockburn, rastachris@worldnet.att.net
There is nothing more I can add to all that has been said. But I must go on record as being one of the many who has been touched by your superb work. Beresford ' Berry ' Allard, BeresfordA@aol.com
I am going to create a site of my own someday. Your site is fantastic. I hope that I can incorporate the same type of beauty as you have done. Bravo. John Perkins, perkins@home.com
I'm a Puertorican who has been living in the US for the last 10 years, but for the last few months I have been dating a person from Trinidad. At the time I didn't know the first thing about it, and thanks to your page and some others, now I probably know more than this person does. Javier, Eanvees@aol.com
I am Puerto Rican- Trinidadian; and would like to commend you on your Trinidad web page stuf. It looks pretty cool; makes me proud to have the Trini blood running through me!!!!!!!! RKhan83262@aol.com

I want to thank you for the great info on Trinidad. I'm doing a class report and literary criticism on Earl Lovelace and the information you provide really helps me to place him in a cultural context. Keep up the good work! Scott Ross, scottyr2@ix.netcom.com
I was very impressed with your web page containing national information on Trinidad. A friend of mine had asked me what the other national bird, apart from the Scarlet Ibis, was. It was nice to see a page with this information - I went through alot of demographics and tourism pages before getting to yours. Thanks for the information. Edmund Daniel, SA_EDMUND@sscl.uwo.ca
I was so pleased and impressed with your homepage. I was especially impressed with the "National Emblems of Trinidad and Tobago," chapter. My husband is also not Trinidadian and I was happy to print this information for him along with your "Postcards from Paradise." This was by far the absolute best page on T&T that I have visited. Keep up the great work!!! Renelle Lee-Bond, leer@admin.njit.edu
I have been so out of going through T&T webpages I decided to check and see what's new. Came across your pages and was impressed - very nice colour scheme and layout with the frames. Well Good Luck on your web pages I will be visiting them again in the future. Pasha Mohammed, mohammed@Admin.ISTS.CA

Nice page Alana. I happened upon it while surfing for information on the Caribbean. I have lived in Los Angeles suburbia for all of my 24 years and have had enough. The idea of living in an island paradise is very alluring. So I've been trying to find out what its like to actually live there. The Merle Hodge article you have is absolutely fascinating. Jay Hultman jhultman@ix.netcom.com
Your web-page is really good. I will like to link to the Trinidad page and to the Tobago page(if that's okay with you, of course)? Where did u get the cool graphics for Trinidad and for Tobago? Michael J. Cox, Camayork@aol.com
I like it Alana I like it :-) I thought about the national emblems thing since I saw it on a Jamaican page. This looks good. I will put links to your page on my page for sure. Take care. Jason, another Trini in foreign. jumbie@Dartmouth.EDU
