🇬🇩 Grenada Episode – TBH with Vitra: Grenada Culture, Grenadian Food, and Spicemas Carnival In this episode of Travel Beyond Home, Vitra sits down with Grenadian lawyer, food entrepreneur, and cultural storyteller Rosana John-Mitchell for a warm and insightful conversation about Grenada culture, Caribbean traditions, and what daily life really feels like on the island. If you’ve ever been curious about island life in Grenada, authentic Caribbean culture, or what makes Grenada one of the friendliest places in the world — this episode is for you. Rosana explains how in Grenadian culture, you are never invisible. Greeting people is expected. Respect is a must. Community isn’t optional — it’s lived daily. She shares why kindness, warmth, and acknowledging one another are core values woven into everyday life. We dive into Grenadian food, including the national dish oil down, and how meals cooked over firewood still bring families and communities together. Food in Grenada isn’t just nourishment — it’s identity, tradition, and connection. The episode also explores Grenadian folklore and Caribbean superstitions, including the stories of Ladjables and Soucouyant, and how these cultural traditions continue shaping imagination and storytelling today. And of course, we talk about Grenada Carnival — Spicemas — and the powerful cultural symbolism of Jab Jab, a defining expression of history, resistance, and pride during Carnival season. Rosana also shares an easy way to bring a touch of Grenada into your home: grate fresh nutmeg over your coffee, pasta, or even your rum punch — a simple sensory connection to the Spice Isle.
