    The EARLY morning my rasta friend Demus came knocking on my door I felt like knocking him out! He showed up with a coffee in his hand and said “GET UP, we’re going to bathe in the river!” That sounded so unappealing to me this early but I put on my swimsuit and grabbed my…

    Hey everyone! I’m back! And I just had to post this while it’s still relevant since the Olympics just ended. Everyone knows that hockey is a religion in Canada so I needed to find a place to watch the gold medal game while in Jamaica. This was so fun because I had met up with…

    This post has nothing to do with me going to Jamaica.  But since discovering this song yesterday I just HAD to post it. It’s a Caribbean artist collaberation through the Digicel Haiti Relief Fund and it moves me to tears every time.  Even though it makes me cry it’s also very uplifting in a way. …

    It seems people like to take me to random cool places in the middle of the night. Not sure why these things don’t come up during the day, night time viewings make for crappier pictures. The same night I got to see a random recording studio in Ocho Rios, I also got to see this…

    The first time I saw any advertisements for this stuff was in September 2009. Of course I wondered what it would taste like so I bought some. My first thought is that it MUST be similar to Magnum, another Jamaican wine concoction, because of the size of the bottle and the hot girl on the…

    I can’t really get enough of watching people dance….I grew up dancing myself. Maybe subconsciously that’s why I was drawn to Jamaica, because that’s all they do there is dance! EVERYONE in that country can do it! When I’m at home and out in public listening to my Ipod I always feel like busting out…

    In ten trips to Jamaica this was honestly the first time I ever saw a vendor weigh their produce before they sell it. I guess I haven’t been shopping at the right places. I took this picture while parked on a roadside in St Ann’s Bay. This guy was just on the roadside with his…
