Hello Everyone,
I actually posted this same request on the Vieques forum. We are researching both communities!!
I am so excited to find this forum!!
My husband and I are looking for the place where we want to grow some roots, become apart of a community, and raise our children. We will be relocating in approximately 2 years. At that time, our children will be 8 years, 5 years, and 3 years old. Of course, that is a major consideration for this move. Where will the children be safe, enjoy growing up, get a good education, and become socially and environmentally conscious people??
We have both done island living before we had children. We both love the tropics, the beaches, the ocean, and diverse cultures. We are considering St. Croix, St. John, Vieques, and Culebra. We have visited St. Croix and St. John, but never the Spanish Virgin Islands. My husband's family originates from Puerto Rico, but have lost the connection and the language. He would like to reestablish that heritage in our children.
Have any of you moved to Vieques or Culebra with small children? What has your experience been?
Or are any of you considering this move with small children?
Any input would be wonderful!!
