10 things Zane misses most when not in Barbados:
1. The amazing beaches that Barbados offers. Each coast offers something different, which I love. Personally my favorite beaches are Pebbles and Accra.
2. Of course I miss the food when I’m away. I miss getting home cooked Bajan meals such as macaroni pie and chicken, but also going and getting pudding and Souse, Flying fish and Cou Cou. Barbados also has many options for really great restaurants.
3. I have a large family and they play a huge part in my life, so being away from them can be hard at times. Luckily I’m able
to come back home every few months and spend some time with them.
4. Similarly to my family, I do miss my friends when I’m away. It’s always great to come back home on my breaks and get together with them.
5. I would have to say I really do miss Bushy Park Barbados (local track) when I’m away. That’s my second home, so whenever I’m back that’s probably where I spend most of my time.
6. Any local festivities that may be going on, such as horse racing. I make sure to check what’s happening during my time home. I’ve gone to Gold Cup a couple times now and it’s always good fun.
7. I do miss the fact that no where is that far in Barbados. You can drive from one side of the island to the next within 30 minutes. I’m always traveling to large countries that take hours to get to where we need to be, so it’s nice to be able to come home and not have to drive too far.
8. I would say that I definitely miss the warmth and weather in Barbados.
9. Im always missing the people. In my opinion I would have to say Bajan’s are some of the nicest people in the world.
10. The overall island life. Barbados just has a slower pace to the countries that I race in. It’s refreshing to come home and be able to relax and enjoy what Barbados has to offer.
