      They are the true ambassadors of Dominica, Dominicans outside Dominica are the ones marketing Dominica to their neighbours colleagues etc, you should be proud seeing and knowing that they are keeping their culture alive in a foreign country, you need to know that whenever we would mention Dominica, first thing we do hear is oh you speak Spanish, this is where we have to explain the differences between Dominica and the Dominican Republic, and boast of our Nature Island to them, your comment will not discourage us , we will continue doing all that we can when it comes to marketing our beloved island
