This episode is the launch of a series of food and drink themed episodes we're putting together in collaboration with the brilliant Hungry Barbados.
With all the site visits to places like Hunte's Gardens and Mount Gay, Yvonne's been feeling a bit hungry, so this episode's very Bajan food themed!
She started out by setting off on a food tour with Ezra Quintyne. As he mentions in the episode, you can contact him by emailing him. (mailto:%20ezb.qin@icloud.com)
During this episode, Yvonne experienced some excellent foodie indulgence at Pappa Jacks, and tucked into some chicken and rum punch!

Golf in Barbados: hitting the links and golfing in style on a paradise island
Fore! We're talking all about golf in Barbados!
What's been happening this week?
Yvonne (https://www.otherworldtravel.com/about)'s been dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Elsa!
Click here to watch the video she took of it. (http://traffic.libsyn.com/lifeinbarbados/hurricane_video_1.mp4)
We begin with an update on the huge storm that plunged the caribbean into chaos during the past couple of weeks.
This episode features an activity that should have been a few episodes earlier, but.... ash cloud!
Yvonne takes a golf lesson at Apes Hill with the incredibly charismatic Sean Edey. No spoilers, but although she's not exactly an experienced golfer, she did a great job considering!
Have a listen to hear how she got on.
Yvonne also managed to sit down with Apes Hill's Kim Goddard to find out more about how the resort fits in with the golfing community of the Bajan island.
