How would you define "paradise" from a local perspective?


Paradise from a local perspective is all about community. Living in a place where people support each other and show one another love.

Paradise is being able to know someone will stop and help you if you break down on the side of the road, knowing that your community will protect and uplift you.

Paradise to me is a way of existing in which we can lean on each other, knowing that the village will always help raise the child. A unique type of love that our islands boast.
