The French side of Saint Maarten
December 15, 2003
I got ready to go to the North of the Island, i hitch hiked for a little while and a lady brought me to Marigot :)... what a views from the road! The girl told me that the people don´t grow any product on the island, so most of the people work in tourism, restaurants, hotels, or selling t-shirts or souvenirs or at some stores.
Marigot was populated by more white people than black and the atmosphere was quite different, more European, it seemed more relaxed and more fancy. I think people stay more in Phillipsburgh because you can feel more nightlife there. There are great restaurants on both sides.
