Aruba's culture is unique in the Caribbean because it is defined more by geography than by history. While other islands suffered from the squabbling of European nations, Aruba remained relatively unwanted because its desert land was not good for sugar production. This lack of plantation-style farming also kept Aruba relatively free from the African slave trade and the troubles it caused in other nations. Despite other slavery issues, Aruba was extremely peaceful, and this peace is certainly evident today.

Wow! It's good to hear those information. Looks like you knew the history of the island. Are you a resident of Aruba? I heard that locals here are very warm, hospital, and generous just like in our country. If so, then it would be easier for us to adapt in the your place.

i also came from a country that celebrates colorful festivities, dancing under the sun, flashing smiles to everyone. i really love watching the twists and turns of different colors right before my eyes. what more can the Aruban culture offer??

i think the culture has to be felt under your nose... it can not be told in the terms of words... you have to feel the difference and you have to understand it.. so come here have a stay here and enjoy here.. there are lot more for new commers here...

i think the culture is not a matter of concern if you are going for a short vacation... the people here are excellent in hospitality.. and you can have lot of 5 star reception wherever you go..

I have only been to Aruba one time, but the people were so nice. It's a big change from living in Boston
