Well, I made it back to Anguilla! I had a pretty smooth travel day yesterday and was so excited to arrive back on my favorite island once again. Ahhh, island bliss… You may or may not have noticed that I’ve been neglecting this blog a bit in the past few months. That’s been mostly because [...]
I’m aware that the name of this blog is “Island Obsessions”. I am also aware of the fact that the only island I’ve written anything of substance about, so far, is Anguilla. Don’t get me wrong – I absolutely love Anguilla, but I’ve always intended to visit other islands to experience them as well. So, [...]
I’ve been back from my trip to Anguilla for just about a week now, and even though there’s 18 inches of snow outside my door, I’m still reveling in that sweet island bliss that AXA never fails to instill within me. I live in the DC metro area, and there’s no doubt that life is [...]
I’m about to go to bed, but I doubt that I’ll be gettting much sleep. I’m way too excited because, when I wake up, I’m heading back to my beloved island of Anguilla! The packing is as done as it’s going to get. I’ve got the basics: my passport, id, some warm weather outfits, a [...]

I have a confession to make. * deep breath * You see… I’ve made plans to visit another island besides Anguilla, and I’m feeling pretty guilty about it. I honestly don’t believe that any other place on Earth stands a chance at taking my heart away from Anguilla, but I feel that I at least [...]
One of the things that really took me by surprise on my first visit to Anguilla was the way that locals were so quick to offer their greetings to tourists. Depending on the time of day, it was rare not to get a “good morning”, “good afternoon” or “good night” (considered to be a greeting [...]
I’m back from my second trip to Anguilla. My visit was even more amazing than I could have hoped and I feel so incredibly lucky to have had the chance to go back so soon. But, now I kind of have a problem… All of a sudden my everyday life here at home seems so [...]
I know I’m not the first person to fall desperately in love with the Caribbean after a visit to one of its gorgeous islands, but I think I’m a little, uhm…, obsessed. Ever since I returned from my first* trip to this beautiful part of the world three months ago, the only thing I can [...]
