"Pictured above/below is Petit Piton, one of St. Lucia's crown jewels. A Caribbean nation in the windward islands, Saint Lucia is an explorers dream. Resting in the foothills of the Pitons, Soufriere is a small fishing village nestled on the shores of the Caribbean Sea. Every night I walked from town to the local beach to watch the sunset with some new friends. We'd laugh and drink, talk and sing. They showed me how St. Luchians really live. I usually don't return on any trip with souvenirs, because it's moments like these that I want to keep forever."
