The rise of micromobility in the Caribbean

The Saint Vincent and the Grenadines context

Saint-Vincent-et-les-Grenadines, an archipelago renowned for its sumptuous landscapes, unspoilt beaches and biodiversity, attracts thousands of travelers in search of authenticity every year. Yet, until now, soft mobility has remained underdeveloped on the main island. The arrival of eScoot Rentals marks a turning point in meeting a growing need for practical, environmentally-friendly travel adapted to the island’s topography.

Why is micromobility so attractive today?

Micromobility, as embodied by electric scooters and bicycles, appeals for its flexibility and low environmental impact. They help to ease traffic congestion, reduce dependence on fossil fuels and offer an affordable alternative. In Saint-Vincent, where journeys are short, these means of transport offered by eScoot Rentals are perfectly suited to discovering the region while limiting polluting emissions.

Lake Enriquillo: About 40 meters below sea level, a Caribbean giant

In the southwestern part of the Dominican Republic, the landscape seems to defy geography. Lake Enriquillo, said to be the largest lake in the Caribbean, lies in a depression whose surface is 40 meters below sea level. It is a vast saltwater lake with no outlet to the ocean, home to American crocodiles and iguanas. Behind this very concrete scene lies a much broader question: how did such a unique lake come to be here, and what does it reveal about the territory that surrounds it?

On August 31, 1896, in Paramaribo, Affiba Maria Magdalena Dompig rode through the city in a horse-drawn carriage, surrounded by several generations of her family. The photograph of that moment, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, became—130 years later—the starting point for*Affiba — The Eldest Woman of Paramaribo*, the new documentary by Ida Does. Through this story, the Surinamese-Caribbean director continues her ongoing work: looking at archives in a new light and bringing lives that have long remained on the margins back into the spotlight. It is in this space between traces and memory that Ida Does works. Affiba, a Face That Transcends Time In the photograph, Affiba is looking at the camera. Standing beside her are two of her children, a granddaughter, and a great-granddaughter. The Rijksmuseum dates the scene to August 31, 1896, and notes that Affiba was considered the oldest woman in Paramaribo at the time. The photographer
