The soil is very rich and fertile. The village is on a steep hill that rises from the Atlantic Ocean. The people are warm, friendly, cheerful, and extremely helpful. There is no running water in the village. Electricity has only been in the village for the last ten years.
Most people own radios, but no other electrical appliances.
There are no alarm clocks and a few people now have telephones. There are also no toys in the village except those, which have been made by hand. The primary school is free, but there are very few supplies and books. The Secondary school is a one and one half-hour walk away, over the top of the mountain. After looking at the photographs and discussing them with your group, write a page describing daily life in Petite Soufriere.
