- Arima, one of the 3 boroughs here in Trinidad & Tobago and a town rich with history, join me my Trinbago Vibes peeps as we spend the day in Arima, kicking it off on top of Calvary Hill and making our way into the town itself, trying out a variety of food along the way.

So there is a typo in the beginning, It’s “CALVARY Hill” and not ‘Clavary”, 🙈
Well Done!!😊👍👍👍👏👏👏👏❤️🙏
@@myrtle6179 Thank you 😊
@@TrinbagoVibes You're Most Welcome!😊❤️🙏
Arima Calvary Hill needs to be refurbished to a nicer park with proper facilities, Picnic tables, Lookout decks, telescopes, toilets, walking paths, security, etc. and similar to La Vie Paramin or San Fernando Hill.
Agreed, this was my first time here and I passed it straight twice, ended up getting info some those dudes liming by the shop…but the views were amazing
Thank you for making this segment on Arima. I have not been back home over 16 years. It brought back wonderful memories. You covered most places that i grew up at, until i left home. I climbed that hill a couple times a year growing up. I also went to Girls RC and attended Santa Rosa church as i grew into an adult. The Dial in the heart of Arima, saw it everyday and matched those street durung carnival. The market place is were my family and my father Rafic sold watercress from Friday to Sunday whiles my brother's and sister including myself sold other vegetables outside the market. My family were farmer and very proud of it. I really appreciated your videos, it down to earth and you keep it real.
P.s This is my husband's account and he also attended Holy Cross College.
That’s a nice history, thank you for your stories 😁 and happy you enjoyed it

Wow! I've lived in Arima since I was 7 and I've never gone past the town. I'm writing a story set in Arima and I know that I have to eventually go out and explore to get familiar with places. This video has given me great ideas on where to start!

You’re most welcome, and yes, this was my first time walking through Arima and the best part was learning the various parts of history about it
Nice vid Raj!🙌🏽🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks cous 🙏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I didn't know so much of history of Arima I really enjoy this one Rajeev .
Glad you did Judy and there is even more history, but that’ll be in a future vid
Amazing tour of Arima's history! Most people who aren't from Arima don't realize how great Arima is. From a stadium to a velodrome(same sporting centres that have produced some of our Olympians), to hills of flora and fauna, to a bustling town centre, home to Bunji Garlin, Shurwayne Winchester amongst others, I love it. Also, was the Amerindian park closed off? It would've been great if you got a closer view of the statue of warrior Hyarima and shared his story because he was integral in protecting the first peoples against the Europeans. Regardless, great video!
Thank you and yeah It was locked indeed but one day I’ll have to do another video of cleaver woods and more of the Amerindian history there
Omg the food in this adventure looked amazing 😋😋😋
Yup, for the not part it was
Thanks for sharing bless
You’re most welcome
Doubles like RAIN in Trinidad- every block must have a doubles stand🤣 That's so good! Thank you for showcasing so, so many areas of TnT. I enjoy watching your videos, keep it up💯
Much appreciated Kay but yeah Arima really different from other places in Trinidad wrt doubles peeps in every corner
Nice video. Learnt a few things about Arima.
Thank you, and yeah Arima is full of history
Nice job of Arima, my second home. Excellent video Rajeev.
Glad you enjoyed it Mo Mo and thank you
Rn I up there in arima by my grandparents house lol.
Nice to see you enjoying yourself up here
It was a nice vibes up there, and would you believe this was my first time walking through the streets here
Interesting and learning experience
That’s how we roll on the channel 😁 or at least try to be at times
Rajeev, Enjoying your videos and the history of Trinidad. Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks Nirmala, the next one we’re heading south 😁

Thanks Allister 🙏🏽
Thanks for showcasing Arima
You’re most welcome, it was a fun one to do, because I learnt a lot while doing the research 😁
Nice informative video once again. I will check out some of those food spots. The doublesman infront of the market under the red umbrella is good and $5 still. I'm not too sure about Calvary Hill though lol
Thanks 🙏🏽, I won’t lie, it felt a lil intimidating with the men by the shop on Calvary hill, but they were rel norms, lol
Arima it’s a beautiful place. It’s changed a lot. Great video
Indeed it is, and yeah, the only thing constant with Time is change, but I’m sure something’s remain the same
Nice video enjoy it very much , you could sing man 😊😊
Lol, thank you 😁 for my singing compliment and glad you enjoyed it
Great video. I know this borough of Arima. Grew up here.
Thank you 🙏🏽 and boom!!!
Great stuff man! First vlog I see of arima. Next time get big bites on farfan st. Best fried chicken in Trinidad!
Ohh, will have to add that to my fried chicken hopping list 😁
Nice video.....👍🏿🇹🇹
Thanks 🙏🏽
Keep the videos coming bro
Thanks bro, I will so long as I can
beautiful
Thank you 🙏🏽
Nice video Rajeev
Thanks max 🙏🏽
You have good energy. That's a walk, boi.
That it was, lol, was fueling the belly along the way during the day
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
😁🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Vibes nice to see you in my home grounds, you better than me I have never visited the cannon 😆 🤣. Hope you explore more on Arima in future vlogs. Interesting fact the Borough of Arima is the only in the Americas with a Royal charter. A bit surprised this is not highlighted, maybe due to the colonial history causes a distaste in some?
You should consider a vlog on the Amerindian heritage centre, the chief is my cousin I can put in a word. Keep it coming.
Yup, in 1888 it became a royal borough, was suppose to incorporate that in this one, but next one for sure and yeah will look into Amerindian heritage around 1st people day in October (hopefully)…btw it was fun to be in your home grounds, had a lot more footage but some got corrupted and well I had the wrong settings on others 🙈😅
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
🙏🏽 much appreciated
Damian's aka Bush Tea doubles is really tasty, you made a gr8 choice.
Thanks, I’ve to say it was fate, lol , but it was definitely a good doubles
This looks like so much fun! It's reallll hot like 34* + these days though
Yeah bro, d sun is a killer these days but I acclimatized since I was out early
Used to walk up and sit on the cannon as a kid
Ohh nice
Great Video!!!!!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Thanks 🙏🏽
Trinibago, you see that old shop you point out before the church it has been there since I was little I’m 70.I have never seen it look any different.
Wow, thanks for that bit of history, makes me curious now and I should have visited that shop
I am from arima and learning so much 🙌
Wow, will have to vibes y’all when I’m doubles hopping there, and yes there is much more history to tell of Arima
@@TrinbagoVibes yes 🙌
And you need to visit Shane's for food next time your there
@@JacobandNichVlogs where is Shane’s?
@@TrinbagoVibes on the street before firstcitizens Bank. I always show them in my arima vlogs
Hey Rajeev, nice Vlog ....
Thanks Gideon
Nice video bro, you missed out a few places tho
Thanks, probably in round 2, lol
Hey guys last night I told you all that does always go up calvary hills will am from TOCO and I now came up there just when to smell the fresh air real good
Nice, and yes the air was fresh, for the most part until the smoke from the bush fire got a little too much for me at the time I was recording
Sorry to hear that but normally up there is the bomb
Best view in the house especially in the night
@@brendabengochea7657 yeah, but it still was amazing being up there, while I was there 😁
Nice
Thanks bro
You did arima Justice ⚖ 🙌
Thanks y’all 🙏🏽
Next time buy the chicken Alfredo or burger at Firewood. Great video
Will definitely try either of those next time I’m in d area..well provided I’m not doubles hopping (spoilers) lol
That biding is calvary old community center
Serious, I think if they spend a little funds they can convert the lookout into a rel tourist spot, paid parking by the church when there isn’t anything cuz that view is amazing at the top
Yuh have a good singing voice TB......😎
Thank you 🙏🏽
Oh my you was in aroma close to my home sorry I didn't know you at the time
Lol, no worries next rounds
I went to school at Holy Cross College, Arima so the area looks familiar to me
Lol, nice
😊👍👍👍👍🙏❤️
🙏🏽😁😁😁🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
In 2004 I lived in arima for a year with my ex-wife on Bellamy street off cocorite road
You Rellll. Likke Doublessss Ahahahha
Done kno!! Doubles is life, lol
My husband and I shared our first kiss eight years ago on that hill after that we does always go back there
Wow, so this was a trip down memory lane and well it sounds like a usual stop for you both 🙌🏽
🇩🇰🇹🇹If I’m mistaken…forgive me!
I notice that most of Rajeev vlogs always have foods, some kind of foods whether the foods are healthy, or unhealthy. Rajeev is a food 🍲🥘 🍱 man😂😃😋. Bon Appetite👍😁.
Food is life 😁
you turned into a Cross Man when you walked down the hill 🤣
lol, well look thing 👀
i am from arima
Nice, and well hope I did justice to your hometown
Nice, Trinidad has great potential for tourism. Amrima could be a tourist attraction. It's time to diversified the economy. The great days of oil and gas are weaning. Trinidad and Tobago wake up!
Most definitely Ian
my old stomping grounds.
Whoaa, lol
Haha. You ate two doubles and noticed the general hospital! Chicken Doubles is blasphemy though.
Yeah it is, but still had to try it, lol
My whole life only went arima once yes
Well this was my first time walking through the town itself and Calvary hill as well, but now I feel like I know it inside out, lol
Wooooow you for real lol
Actually I grew up in Arima. Great Town.
🇩🇰🇹🇹😁I wonder if Rajeev does cleanse as much as he eats? Cleansing the bowels, and Colon🙀🤣.
There is balance, no worries
YOU NEED MERCH
Coming later this year, and will be getting input from y'all on a Sunday live sometime later this year as well 😁
@@TrinbagoVibes Omg can't wait!
I have never been up there
Now you know how to get there 😊, the view is amazing… if it wasn’t for the smoke I would have spent more time there
@@TrinbagoVibes ok cool but it to hot to go anywhere keep hydrated
@@gabriellepadmore3248 so true…but we go the distance for UA-cam, lol
@@TrinbagoVibes still drink plenty of water
🇩🇰🇹🇹When Rajeev is sleeping 🛌 he is eating. Rajeev love to eat, and he has a doubles mouth. Always eating😹
Done know, lol
Tell me something, the only food you show on your video is doubles.
While doubles is our most popular street food, you get pies and some grill food in this one, there is also Chinese food, local coffee shops, roti and a few other items in other videos on the channel… but doubles is life
Chicken doubles more nutritious.
That’s a bake and chicken with channa 🤣
😂so ridiculous that they should have forced these mask on people, no need for people to have worn these mask in open spaces. One of the ridiculous rules in this plandemic.
Thanks for the video, lived near Arima, but only visted the town centre.
You’re most welcome
