    Just reading the title of this post still makes me laugh. For those of you who aren’t on my personal Facebook page you won’t know this story yet. When I lived in Jamaica there was a two-week period that I rented my own apartment to some travelers that I know and I moved out to…

    I have a couple things to admit. #1 I didn’t even know what the term crotch rocket meant until recently. #2 I was pretty scared but exhilarated riding this one! Over this past summer I’ve become familiar with being a bike passenger but never on one of these kind. I’m only accustomed to riding on…

    Many of you know I gave up my apartment in Ocho Rios after nine months of having my own “home” in Jamaica. The way it went down was quick and I didn’t know I was giving it up the last time I left the island so of course I kept it intact thinking I was…

    This was one of my memorable days in Jamaica, as if they’re not all memorable. One afternoon I was running a bunch of errands on foot in Ochi and it was a terrible weather day. Like when I went into a cambio to pay my JPS bill I was stuck in there for almost an…

    I know half of you are going to shame me for this and the other half of you are going to laugh yourselves silly and say how this is just typical of a day in my life! Despite how badly this whole situation pissed me off I guess it still gave me something funny to…

    If any of you are like me with your pets, you treat them as a member of your family and they receive the same amount of love and attention any family member would. This post is one of the closest to my heart that I’ve ever written and visiting the The Animal House Jamaica in…

    ****BEFORE contacting me about Delroy PLEASE NOTE: You can find him on Facebook as Delroy Barnaby**** For years I’ve been wanting to get a tattoo in Jamaica just to say I did it. Well I finally did it and this story has some great history to it. A couple years ago before many of you…

    A couple months ago two of my American friends were in Jamaica and we planned a link-up! They had two Jamaican friends who were from Hamilton mountain in St Mary parish and the mission for the day was to find out where it is and see something new. It’s really great meeting new people in…

    I put this post under “favorite questions” because this WOULD have been a good question for a car washer to ask me before he washed it. On a random day my friend and I were driving from Montego Bay to Ocho Rios and we decided to stop on the way and stock up on some…

    Not that there would ever be a necessity for this elsewhere but I’ve gotta hand it to Jamaicans to be this organized at high profile public events! I’ve also never seen this at any other events besides this one – the Boscobel air show in St Mary, Jamaica. They actually had a security truck sitting…
