The Calculated Traveller stops by Curacao

Curacao – The Meaning of Dushi – Calculated Traveller.

Dushi

In the island of Curacao, you may hear (or even see) the expression “Dushi” but as explained by my guide Charla of the Curacao Tourist Board, “Dushi has a lot of meanings…but it mostly means sweet, nice or good”. The phrase perfectly fits this beautiful island.

Curacao named one of Frommer’s Top 10 Destinations

Curacao – Top Destinations 2012 at Frommer’s.

Curacao is not your quintessential Caribbean island. Sure, it has curvaceous white beaches, cerulean seas, and a coral reef brimming with exotically hued marine life. But Curacao offers even more, with one of the region’s most cosmopolitan cultures and a standout capital in Willemstad, a child’s paintbox of giddy Caribbean colors and gabled colonial architecture.

Celebrating its first year of independence after the dismantling of the Netherland Antilles in 2010, Curacao still has the feel of “Holland in the Tropics,” with the flavors of both Europe and the West Indies on bold display.
