You play the piano really well . I stumbled across your site while studying for my 4th year exam (photo depicting cutaneous innervation of the hand). There is something about your site that made me stop and read through and my mind is soothed and ready to study more. I study in London at King’s. I hope you carry on writing your blog and playing the piano and of course a hello to lovely Irene from me.

Hi Benji,
I just saw this post, and I have to ask you this question. Do you know where I can rent or buy a piano on St. Maarten? I don’t want my son to stop his piano lessons while on the island. Thank you.
Hi Louis,
I haven’t tried looking for one myself, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there were somewhere where you can buy a piano and other musical instruments. I do recall seeing a few electronics stores on Back Street in Philipsburg that carry digital pianos. Perhaps that’s a good place to start. If you’re interested in looking for a piano teacher, I think one of the current spouses there is one. You could try connecting with the AUC Spouses’ Organization to see if they can help.

My name is Benji Ho and I am a family physician and 2013 graduate of the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (AUC), located on the Dutch side of the beautiful island of St. Maarten. My time at AUC has been quite a worldwide adventure, studying two years of Basic Sciences on the island, then completing my clinical rotations in the US as well as the UK. I completed my family medicine residency at Mercer University School of Medicine / Navicent Health in Macon, Georgia. Today, I am a board-certified family physician practicing outpatient family medicine in Macon, Georgia. I hope you enjoy my site as I share with you my journey. Thanks for visiting Diary of a Caribbean Med Student!
