I Love Vieques Island

My biggest desire is to live on Island of Vieques. Its a true paradise for me. Its a magical place where I feel passion for life. Its beauty makes me smile and feel great to be in that small and beautiful island...Vieques..

I am currently living with my partner in Phoenix Arizona, however I have been trying hard to get him to see why "we" should move to Vieques out of all the places in the USA to go.

He has been in his job now for 25 years since he was young and does not know anything else than Phoenix. I on the other hand, like to explore and going to the Beach is my Religion. I breathe sleep and just live for the beaches in Vieques....growing up in the island of St.Croix was great too then my mom moved us to Tampa Florida where i also call my home....but when I was young I would be taken to Vieques Island by my grandmother who was building a house for me. She wanted custody of me back then. Gosh I love her...anyway after her passing away I did not seem to know what happen to that house....since I was not close to her relatives I had no one to ask or find out real info...but that was fine, as an adult I visited my dad who did not want to leave Vieques even if his life counted on it....he passed away just like he wanted in Vieques....but my heart stayed in Vieques also....he showed my why Vieques is a treasure and why he loved it so much....He talked about how the Navy forced his ancestors out of their lands because they did not want be paid off to move like the rest to the inner part of the island where most moved to the neighborhood are of barrio Monte Santo...althouth I have no real communications with his relatives....I still have my heart set on moving to Vieques. I tried to move there 4 times in the past 5 years and once more when I went to bury my father. No luck finding a job. The fact of becoming homeless in paradise did run through my mind but I needed to work and so I went back To Florida. Now with trying to be in a partnership I find myself in Phoenix...I have started to save to ship my Jeep. It will be the perfect compliment to live on Vieques Island....................................................... I will one day soon move to Vieques.
