Day 147 - Saint Kitts and Nevis 🇰🇳

June 18, 2021

Today we head to the dual island paradise of Saint Kitts and Nevis. Saint Kitts and Nevis is the smallest nation in the Western Hemisphere and has around 52,000 inhabitants.

Cricket is a big deal in Saint Kitts and Nevis, with the country being the smallest nation to ever host a Cricket World Cup in 2007. Given cricket is so popular, it’s pretty unsurprising that Saint Kitts and Nevis was previously a British colony, only gaining full independence from the UK in 1983.

Saint Kitts and Nevis is today apparently a very sleepy country, with agriculture, specifically sugar plantations still making up a significant part of the economy. However, tourism is increasing, and Plantation Inns are the choicest places to stay.

If you particularly like your stay in St Kitts and Nevis, the country will grant citizenship to almost anyone who is willing to make a $400,000 (USD) in a government approved real estate investment.

If you do end up visiting St Kitts and Nevis, don’t forget to try the Goat Water.
