The Ghetto in Spanish Town, Jamaica
This post has more pictures than usual because I really wanted to show what kind of experience I had in the “ghetto”. When I got there it only took minutes for one of them to tell me I suit the ghetto. In a strange way I was honored. A couple friends of mine who work…
