Hey pirata,

Try answering just one question without insulting somebody!

And thanks so much for leaving America as we don’t want arrogant scum like yourself in our country.

Get a life, LOSER!!!!! And learn how to spell, dumba$$.

Sunscreen, your bathing suit and a cover up or two. Wear a little “hoodie” outfit on the plane and you can use that at night. Then just your little personal items and a beach book.
I am serious. Very casual. I betcha you can pack it all in a good sized carry on, too.
And whoever told you there isn’t much to do there is a killjoy. St. Thomas is gorgeous and a lot of fun. Here’s a little tip: Take the local buses, they only cost $1 and will take you all over the island. Just pretend you know what you are doing and hop on! Ask a local if you need help. They are so friendly.
Plus we own St. Thomas so you will see a lot of American over the counter meds and brands there. Take the ferry to St. John’s one day, FOR SURE. Plan on going snorkelling a lot. Amazing fish.
I am soooo jealous. I love St. Thomas!

You have the right idea… pack MINIMAL and buy what you need when you get there. I have traveled the world with a converted fiberglass tool case with a shoulder strap from a Sony Professional Beta-cam and can go for 6 to 8 MONTHS at a time with a case that can fit under ANY airline seat.

AmeriKans have all see the movies so they think they need 3 steamer trunks for 2 week vacation and they are such amateur travelers they PACK that way… which, as you seem to realize.. the don’t.

Seasoned world travelers use a single suitcase or backpack that NEVER weighs over 40 POUNDS… AmeriKans on the other hand use 3 or 4 suitcases which they have to PAY to have someone else handle.

Enjoy your MINIMALIST VACATION.

there isn’t much to do in St-Thomas.
Although you should consider taking a taxi and crossing to the other side of the island.. there is a beautiful beach called Magen’s Bay. One of the most beautiful beaches I have ever been to.

If you’re going shopping downtown, then put on comfortable clothes, flip flops, bring a water bottle because it can get really hot. Don’t forget sunglasses!

HAVE A GREAT VACATION!
