After years of begging, I finally made it to Maya’s house in Vieques this week. Luckily fifteen years of anticipation didn’t spoil the experience, and the island delivered relaxation in a way that only sun, humidity, deserted beaches, a best friend, and a welcoming home can.
There are three stores that I encountered on the island, my favorite of which was La Tienda Verde, where we went most days for 10 oz. cans of Medalla for sipping on the beach. The Green Store also carried other essentials, like this cute denim notebook.
