Do you get island fever? The place is pretty small and it probably a lot of military off limits places making it feel even smaller. One map says it's 210 square miles which would be about 10 miles by 21 miles if it were a rectangle.

How much does it cost to travel to other places if you feel like a change of scenery? It looks pretty far away from places like Japan and Australia.

These are excellent questions for the Island peoples -
I have a very good friend who lived in the Virgin Islands for 14 years - and she says yes - eventually you will succumb to Island fever. As she put it, yes it was beautiful but you can only go to the same beach so many times.

The irony behind this is most people live 99% of their life within 30 mile radius.
But I think its the IDEA you can just get in your car and drive further that keeps the fever at bay.

I lived in Rural Maine and to get much of anywhere different was a 2 hour car drive to even begin to hit Novelty. I got isolation fever. So from that experience think I'd not last very long at Island life. I also learned I do not enjoy living in a place where the "locals" don't like you very much - that feeling gets old fast.
