This is a simple guide to the vernacular of Trinidad & Tobago, which is where I'm from.

So whether you're a fan/tourist of Trinidad & Tobago or just curious about another culture this book is for you!

Sex, Travel and The Pandemic by ancilgon

Traveling the world full-time as a digital nomad is difficult. It's especially difficult during one of the deadliest and most debilitating pandemics in world history. Stuck, broke, and alone, Trinikid must find a way to survive in this new virulent world with no way of returning to his home country of Trinidad and Tobago. Prime Minister Keith Rowley had completely shut the borders to T&T to every and anyone for 16 whole months. 16 months is a long time in these circumstances. Before the pandemic began, Trinikid had set out on a world trip of discovery, love, fun, adventure, and everything along the way. But in travel, as in life, things never always go according to plan. With only a backpack and a movie blog, this is his story.

Holding Back [COMPLETED] by joymoment

"I love how this book is turning out!😍 Not cliche at all!" - i_hatecliche "We might live next door to each other," Haley said, "but we don't live in the same world." Hooking her fingers around her backpack straps, she walked away from Jace. She had barely gone a few steps before he was at her side again. "What makes you believe we don't live in the same world?" he asked. "As far as I can tell, we do." "No, we don't. I'm...me and you're Jace Cortez. The dream of every girl. The friend to every guy. The star of the school. Girls. Sports. You're the ultimate player." "It sounds like you have a preconceived notion of who I am." "And it's one that has yet to be proven wrong." From books and a lifetime of sitting on the sidelines, Haley is convinced she knows how the world works, specifically high school. Everyone has a label and a box they fit in. This knowledge, paired with parents who are fighting, a brother leaving soon for college and a best friend who moved away has made her decide to never get involved. It will take being forced to work with her fellow juniors on a project, a boy next door with a infectious smile, a star gazer with an adorable puppy, and an unlikely pair of fangirls to make her see how truly wrong she was about everything. "IT'S NOT CLICHÉ!!!" - Moria987 "This is the reason y I keep coming back to this book...It's simply a breathtaking journey" - mariyamsajorawala "I don't usually comment but this is one of the best books I've read here. I love the fact that it's realistic and focuses on things that really hinder human interaction, perceptions and stereotypes." - yurfavegal "just gets better and better. How are all your characters 3D! Like this writing is so beautiful" - CrazyStarChick "Reading it for the second time, and the book still brings a smile to my face 😆" - grumpymood "She's practically Carter's twin 😂😂" - Guardian_21 #1 Breakingcliches #1 Arrogant #6 in Teen Romance

I finish putting on my makeup and make sure I'm ready. I hear the doorbell ring and almost have a heart attack. I peek my head out my door hoping it's Stephhano. Titdo comes running in. This book was made sometime in 2010. I have held onto this book as well as my other for years. Please enjoy both. https://www.wattpad.com/user/TeamJIK17?utm_source=ios&utm_medium=link&utm_content=share_profile&wp_page=user_details&wp_uname=TeamJIK174&wp_originator=wlBL4q4dYHDjGM9DRukmQKVjukXgDjLDrh7fV%2B4U9uPs19ULlkDNrl6uLbDTlXU2I87J%2Fl0L%2Fh0xZgKJmzkFAIu4g3m93BbfRtCnYIKxFZgi3cmGPnyH3wrvlKjfipJ1
