Episode 118: Expressing Love for Aruba with Catherine Cook

 

Hey there and long time no see! One Happy Podcast is back with a special guest, Catherine Cook, who is a certified Aruba lover.

 

Catherine originally traveled to a bunch of different islands until she discovered Aruba back in 2004 and it made quite the impression on her. However, she finally fell in love with the island in 2006 during her second visit. After that, she found herself coming back again and again at least twice a year. Needless to say, Aruba became her favorite island.

 

There are a lot of aspects that made her fall in love with Aruba, but she says that the people are really what sold her. She has met tons of lovely folks in the island who are now part of her extended Aruba family.

 

Aside from her Aruba story, we talk about airports, accommodations and why she thinks it's good to try a little bit of every kind of property to stay at, and her favorite restaurants.

 

Indeed, Catherine's love and enthusiasm for Aruba is something worth listening to.
