Many Guadaloupeans do not speak English. This means they are more tolerant of foreigners' feeble attempts at communication. One can converse in french and receive a smile instead of the traditional Parisian scowl.
Dear Guadeloupe, Thanks for the good coffee, french cheese and opportunity to practice ma francais. Also, thanks for the euros that are now going to sit in my wallet for months. Sincerely, Ashley
We left Guadeloupe early to get the transmission fixed in Antigua.
