My Grenada Chocolate Festival Experience!

My take away from this is that we have everything we need to survive and thrive here in the Caribbean, we should cherish and use it. The truth is our grass is pretty green (the good kind of green 🙂 ). In addition I've formed some really remarkable bonds with some great people. Who knew chocolate could win you friends? I ended my chocolate fest rejuvenated, thrilled and feeling like the luckiest girl on the block. And like my dad said to me a few days ago, 'sometimes you have to create your own luck.' I think I did just that. I am so grateful to have been blessed with this opportunity. This experience is one that I will treasure for the rest of my life. I grew so much in those 11 days. I returned home a new me. Grenada Chocolate Festival you gave me life!
