In , their second largest territory, there are approxi- mately 3,600. They are sad that their history has been all but forgotten; the history of the first people to settle in the Caribbean who are still living today. Other cultures, such as the Arawaks, who visited Saint Barth as they inhabited the Northern Islands, and the Taïnos who lived in the Greater Antilles, were destroyed after the arrival of the Spanish. The goal of the Gli Gli (whose name path by which his ancestors arrived is a Caribbean bird used on a totem in Dominica. This dream became a for bravery) is to recall the existence reality with the Gli Gli project, and history of the Caribs.

Service VS Tip They must not be confused. Service is the “tax” that a client pays in a restaurant for being served. This goes into the salary paid to all of the employees in the restaurant. A tip, in France, is not an obligation, but a little extra in appreciation of good service. There is no set percentage for such a tip, and varies in function to the service provided.
