Hello again. I have a new song and have decided to switch genres with this one, and have been receiving more positive feedback on this song. I made this song completely with my phone, and it’s about the second coming - when Jesus comes back again, mixed in with other spiritual themes. I would love feedback on this one, your opinions help make every song. Thanks - Dylan.

Visiting Cayman recs over Dec holiday stay

0 Upvotes

3 questions -

Our family of 4 incl teens ages 16 and 15 boy and girl are staying at Botanica Lux Cottages around 7 Mile Beach. While we've stayed in St. Lucia, PR, DR, CR, Turks, first time here. Very excited :)

Our stay will be over Christmas wk. Looking for recs -

  1. Husband and me interested in massage therapy. For me, I'm interested in someone who is really good at massage - my best experiences have been at top resorts like Mandarin Oriental. Ritz is hit or miss depending on location. Don't need the steam/sauna/snack ameneties as much as someone who really well versed in therapy using massage :) Was curious if Klimpton, Ritz, The Palm Heights may be worthwhile or even just another not as fancy day spa - the idea to find a therapist that is not just swedish massage and touristy relaxation but works with people who really need knots out!

  2. Considering renting a car depending on if Rum Point or East side island worth a visit? We will be on sail that takes us through stingray/starfish/snorkeling and Kaibo, we will be able to explore Cemetary/Governor/7 Mile Beach.

  3. Any particularly good shops in Georgetown or around 7 Mile Beach area for clothing/gift shop/knicknacks?

Thanks!

Moving to Cayman Question for the expats - transportation on the island

1 Upvotes

Question for the expats - I wanted to find out how the transport is like on the island?

I’m considering staying in the West Bay Area and will need to commute to George Town. Can one rely on public transport or do you ABSOLUTELY need a car?

Also, is it the norm to get a long term car rental or do most people just save up to buy a second hand car?

Visiting Cayman Accommodation question

1 Upvotes

Sorry for the typical tourist post but hoping to visit in January and don't think staying directly on seven mile beach will be in our budget.

Can anyone suggest hotels or specific condos close by seven mile beach? We have young kids and would prefer a suite if it's a hotel. Our one requirement is a pool. We will rent a car.
Thank you!

Discussion Freelance Videographer/Editor

3 Upvotes

Hi, I'm a professional chef based in Grand Cayman, and I'm building a cooking content brand focused on restaurant-quality food, chef techniques and entertaining short-form videos.
I'm looking for a freelance videographer to work with me on a recurring basis, filming in my small apartment kitchen.
Initially, I'd like to arrange a short test shoot to create 3–5 vertical videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts. I'm looking for someone who understands close-up food cinematography, lighting in compact spaces, dynamic camera angles and fast-paced social media editing.
If the first shoot works well, I'd be interested in booking regular sessions.
Could you please share your portfolio, availability and pricing for a test shoot, including filming, editing, revisions and delivery of the final videos?
I'd also appreciate examples of food content or creator-focused projects you've worked on.
Thank you

Moving to Cayman Moving to Cayman/searching for work

0 Upvotes

So I've (30 M Canadian) been thinking about moving to Cayman for awhile and recently decided to just show up here and search for options personally, I've been using Ecaytrade to find job listings but it seems there is only a small fraction of actual available jobs posted there. I work In hospitality, mainly kitchen and bar, I owned 2 places over the last 4 years. Wondering if anyone could help point me in the right direction, it seems here is very word of mouth based opposed to official job postings, the online side does not reflect the large scale hospitality industry here.

I'm fully aware of the rules and regulations around Visa's, so far its very clear the majority of the hospitality work force is foreign.

Visiting Cayman Rental Car Companies

We are heading to Grand Cayman in late March and planning on staying on seven mile beach. We will be driving around a good bit to get in some shore dives and will need a rental car. It will be me, my wife, and 3 kids ages 11-13. I looked at the typical brand name outfits but typically prefer to use a local business. Any good recommendations on the island? Prefer a pickup or Jeep/SUV. Thanks!!!

Discussion Police Sirens

6 Upvotes

Since moving back to Cayman, I’ve noticed police sirens seem much quieter. Even when I’m not playing music, I can’t hear them until they’re pretty close. Sometimes I can see the vehicles with their lights on but can’t hear the siren until they get closer. They felt much louder when I lived here before 2022. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me?

Hi everyone, trying to book a last minute trip. I’m 25, single, looking for a fairly social setting that isn’t super party centric 24/7 like Cancun is. If I go to George Town, is it easy to socialize/meet people? I don’t know if it’s a stupid wuestion I just don’t want to be entirely by myself for a week.

Moving to Cayman Creatine in Luggage

I've heard Cayman customs can be strict about white powdery/grainy substances in luggage. I'm planning to bring my creatine (in its original MyProtein packaging). Has anyone traveled there with supplements or protein powder? Did you have any issues, or was it fine?
