I’m first struck by the profusion of colour. Homes are painted in shades of cantaloupe and lemon yellows as bright as a Bermudian kiskadee’s chest feathers, and voluminously draped in pink oleander.

Bermuda is only about 1.5 kilometres wide, so you’re never far from an endless and impossible blueness."
