I will do my best to get back to you promptly. Make sure you stay until the end as I share some final thoughts on packing and how to make it work for you! Hello and welcome back! It has been a while but I am happy to say that Roses 4 Adventure is back to content creation and we hope that you find our videos not only helpful but enjoyable as well. We recently took a vacation to St Maarten and stayed on the French side of the island at Orient Bay. We have traveled here before a few times on cruise ships and knew this would be a wonderful spot to spend some more time! For those of you who do not know or have never been to the island it is divided in 2, one side governed by the Dutch and the other by the French. It was very interesting to see how different the 2 sides really are! In this video I go through all of the things I packed for our vacation and how I can possibly do it with just a backpack and a carry-on bag for a 7 night, 8 day vacation. I know this video may not be for everyone but as a recovering pack-aholic I share with you how I can easily pack in just these small bags and still have more than enough room for everything! https://youtu.be/akkdxr3re30 https://youtu.be/RO7rc79sbKQ *Please note, the things I share in this video are what works for my family and I, each person has their own way of enjoying their own vacation so be sure to always do what works for YOU! More about us: We are a fun loving, adventure seeking family of 4 and love exploring in all different manners. Including cruising, hiking, camping, kayaking, mountain biking and so much more. When we travel we love to rent Airbnbs or Virbos to have a more home-feel to them. When we cruise we also love to make it our home away from home. We countdown the days until our next adventure!
