    Everyday is just a constant reminder of what we all went through. My 9yr old asks daily "mommy why we had to have a hurricane?"😔

    I lived on Tortola for about a year managing a dive shop and fell in love with Tortola. So so sad to see this video and I do hope this island is rebuilding and hope to visit again some day.

    Good Afternoon, My name is Aniyah and I am doing a video on the destruction done to Tortola due to the hurricane and was wondering if you would be kind enough to allow me to use a small piece of footage from this video.

      Hi Amiah Stout, my daughter's name is Aminah.☺ Ironic that you made this comment. I love the place too❤. I left to Trinidad (my home country) after hurricane Irma. I was thinking of returning this month but i might just delay returning for a little longer. Can i ask why you can't stay?

    Iam so sorry for all of you, the destruction is so massive. We hope and wish to come back next april. Do you have news about the marina live ? How are all the people working there ? you have some pics ? God bless you. Peter

    • @MmartinaJ
      @MmartinaJ  7 років тому

      Thank you! It is one thing to experience the hurricane which was traumatic now the other thing is for the territory to rebuild which is a lengthy process. Thanks for watching my video and taking to comment. Many companies are reporting that they are open back for business, some marinas included. Maybe you can check out these FB groups BVI Abroad - Hurricane Irma and BVI Community. You will lots of up to date info there and pictures as well.
