Is Saba safe?

[stookie]

Is Saba a safer island because it is smaller? Is it one of the safer caribbean med schools? (I mean personal safety)

[miasma]

i heared that the island is virtually crime free, and that the locals are incredibly nice.

Salutations "stookie":

Saba is a relatively safe island. I feel that since it is a smaller island than other Caribbean schools, this contributes somewhat to its safety. I have never had any problems with the locals and I have hitched numerous of rides from them as well without any problems. Everyone here is friendly. Hope that helps. Ciao.

Most people never lock their doors on either the car or house. Of course, if you leave your laptop or a wad of cash sitting in the front seat of your car with the windows rolled in the middle of the bottom overnight it might dissappear.

Saba is totally safe in regards to crime and all that..... what you have to watch out for is that dirty tramp Mother Nature. 'Ol girl has really had it out for me lately..... broken nose at the beach, nearly broken arm from a rock falling on me at Well's bay, and then last night a tree branch fell on my head when I was walking through Windwardside. Felt like someone smacked me with a 2 x 4.... luckily I had enough booze in me to dampen the pain, but I had a nice cake of blood in my hair this morning. If no one believes these crazy stories I have, I have witnesses.... (Donnie back me up here).

That was so funny. I couldn't help but laugh. I was walking with my roommates didn't know you had stopped. Next thing we heard was a loud thud then something hit the ground. When i turned around, Nate wasn't in sight...luckily he had walked over to the wall and not fallen out in the middle of the road. Quite a good laugh...and what a way to end such a long week.

Something has to be done with the wind around here, Its almost hurricane force it seems.....

Don't forget to pay D**pa for the Physical Examination of your head...all during the Hurricane force winds that almost blew her to St. Eustatias.

Since my original comment was sensored... then I guess you dont want anyone knowing about the 2 crimes that occured while I was on the island. For those who do send me a PM, I will gladly summarize my sensored comment.
