      Nothing is Ever as it Seems Earlier this year I relocated to Montego Bay to fulfill a work contract that I scored and was so excited to get started on! Who really gets paid to go to Jamaica and tour luxury villas? THAT still remains a good question because it sure wasn’t me! It…

    An American in Jamaica Submitted by April D. Thompson So it didn’t quite go down like the title suggests. In fact, I didn’t even tell my mother I was moving to Jamaica until after I actually arrived. Not that I don’t love her, but she, like many others, just wouldn’t understand. I’m a firm believer…

    Since I’m in Canada for a few weeks and I’m lacking Jamaica stuff to write about I thought I’d turn it over to my readers to give me something to write about.  I asked the fans in my FACEBOOK GROUP to ask me any question and I would answer in a blog post.  So here’s…
