I was born and raised in Puerto Rico (PR), so this post is very important for me. I have not lived in the island for about 18+ years now, but I go to visit my family at least once a year since then (with the exception of the year of Covid-19). Puerto Rico has changed quite a lot in the last few years. The hurricane Maria (2017), the earth movement in the south (earthquakes) and most recently some of the issues with the electric power. However, the island has been "back in business" since the hurricane and now busier than ever. If you have not visited the island, you need to reconsider immediately.
Why should you visit Puerto Rico?
I will give you 10 reasons why you should visit the island.
1. For starters, if you are an American citizen, you do not need a passport to visit the island!
2. Puerto Rico is a tropical island which means that it is hot all year around. (In my eyes, that means that you could go to the beach any day of the year!)
3. The Puertorrican people are amazing - if you go and visit the island, respect it and respect the people. They will give you love back if you are kind to them.
4. The Puertorrican food is incredible! I may be biased because I grew up eating the food, but the flavor and diversity is great. Also try the local coffee!!!
5. You could see a rain forest, a dry forest, a beach, a river... pretty much a great variety of locations with the exception of ice!
6. People speak Spanish but for the most part you will always find people who speak English (and sometimes other languages).
7. It is not that far (if from America) since it is geographically located in between the Americas.
8. The island is pretty small - so you can drive around and truly experience the culture in a matter of a few days.
9. If you are an instagram fan or an influencer, there is a ridiculous amount of spots for those social media lovers!
10. Last but not least, the island is absolutely gorgeous!!! Just look at the pictures yourself and you will see that I am not lying!
