Tobago: Book Review and Giveway

'Tobago: Clean, Green and Serene' is a beautiful coffee table book that was given to me on my recent visit to the Caribbean paradise island.  This book echoes the diverse and colourful  life on this idyllic island as well as giving you an insight into the history, traditions and local customs (I will soon be posting about a local custom called 'Harvest' which I think you will enjoy).
As you flip through the pages you will feel like you have been transported to this special place in the Caribbean; sunny, warm and friendly whose people are intensely proud of their heritage and customs.  I attended a community cooking session leaning how to make cou cou and even brought home one of those long cooking sticks!
And of course one of the highlights of the community calendar is the Easter Goat Racing at Buccoo Reef!
The beaches are serene and very rarely busy making you think you may be the only one on the island at that point along with calm, warm and beautiful clear waters.
This book is publishes by Hansib Publications Ltd with a UK RRP of £20.00 and you can win a copy for your own coffee table by following the instructions below.  The giveaway is open to residents of the UK only.

I was a guest of Visit Tobago (The Tobago House of Assembly) and Le Grand Courlan Spa Resort.  I was not required to write a positive report.  As usual all photos are my own and may not be reproduced without my written permission.
