He may have been from Jamaica originally, but he had a thick cockney accent from living in London most of his life. I remember him telling me that he was basically a 'performance artist' and there wasn't much money in it. But his needs were basically minimal, although he did have a car at one point. About five years ago, when I met him for the first time, he said he intended to stay in SXM for one more year. So, I was mildly surprised to see him again each of the intervening years.
