My home is not as beautiful as the one’s you would see at the resorts or advertised on websites, but it does protect my family from mother natures elements and by that i mean natural disasters. The Caribbean is known for its famous beaches, land and beautiful reefs, also it is famous for giving birth to one of mother natures destructive storms which is the Hurricane. Every year from June to November we go through the hurricane season, hence most of us belizeans build concrete and sometimes high buildings to protect us from the powerful wind and high flood waters that the storm brings. It might not be a beautiful house but as long as it could hold its ground and keep us safe we call it home.
