10 PERSONAL FACTS ABOUT ME


  1. I would consider myself a Cultural Explorer, Budgeter, Free Spirit and an Organized traveller. In other words, “I’m Frugal”, a big wise spender. 
  1. I’m a music lover and being from Jamaica you’d assume I love Dancehall and Reggae everyday and anyday. Well, Afrobeats is the filling in my oreo. I’m in love with Dancehall first, then Afrobeats then comes Reggae unless we talking about Buju Banton, he comes first.
  1. I’m a “Parents Girl”. If you’ve met them you’ll understand. I cannot choose, not that we should have to anyways.
  1. I ran Track & Field throughout my school days, mostly 100 meters. Wanting to focus more on my studies, I decided to quit after first year university and boy has it been hard to get back in the gym and running again. My favourite sport athletes are Serena Williams and Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce. Surprise I did not say Usain Bolt. 
  1. I’m a watch lover, never buy my right size online shopper, and neat freak! My car is probably the cleanest car you’ll ever sit in.
  1. I’ve recently become a Pescatarian and its going great. Hope to make the move to Vegan one day, which might be hard because I’m in love with Cinnabon and Yogurt.
  1. I am extremely adventurous. I have walked Tigers, swam with Dolphins, Sharks, Sting Rays, Sea Lions, and have eaten Grasshoppers, Crocodile, Frog legs, Snails and Octopus. Wow that sounded awful but I know there is more to come.
  1. As I’ve mentioned in my Bio, I’ve been to 45+ AMAZING Countries:

  1. I was shy once upon a time. I can truly say I found my voice through travelling. Now they cannot get enough of me (wink wink).
  1. My favourite quote of all time is “Entrepreneurship is living a few years of your life like most people won't so you  can spend the rest of your life like most people can’t”.

The Grotto: Bruce Peninsula National Park

As seen in the above photograph you probably thought I was somewhere in the Caribbean. Nope! This would be the beautiful Bruce Peninsula in Ontario, Canada. Yes! Canada. I could not believe how crystal clear the water was, it made you want to just jump in. The Peninsula genuinely took me away. I forgot where I was but then remembered oh so quickly that yes I was in Canada. The water was freezing cold! It probably took about 8 minutes if not more for my body to adjust to bear the cold so that I could stay in the water longer. Currently, the park entrance is free to celebrate Canada 150. Which means you have to arrive early if wanting to visit the Grotto. Time slots are given for parking access inside the Grotto area know as Cyprus Lake and are given to first come first serve visitors. These parking passes last for 4 hours (be sure not to spend longer to avoid ticketing).  I arrived at the park exactly at 10 am and ended up getting a 5pm - 9pm parking pass to vi...

BOM DIA BRAZIL

Waking Up in Rio de Janeiro and Bahia RIO DE JANEIRO, RIO DE JANEIRO My first time visiting Rio de Janeiro was back in 2015. School was out and I would spend the next month and a bit backpacking South America. First up was Rio. I fell in love with this place the moment I arrived in its beauty and lets be honest my first Caipirinha. Lost in translation, not being able to communicate with most people and even with the airline loosing my luggage which meant I would spend the next few hours or days in Toga wear was all apart of the journey. From the meat (huge meat lover), the people, the environment and the vast amount of options I had at my hands, I knew I would visit again. This time I was able to journey back to Rio and for the first time, Salvador. Of course I loved it too, especially more so now that I had help! José was my voice box as he speaks fluent Portuguese. I didn’t realize until that moment how much of a difference speaking a main language in a country would...

MY TWO DAY BACKPACKING TRIP TO NICARAGUA

In the spur of the moment while visiting Liberia, Costa Rica, my travel partner and I figured we should visit Nicaragua while being in Central America. Having no clue where to go and what to do, we knew we wanted to test the waters considering the distance between the two countries. As this would be my first time backpacking, we started to ask around from the moment we got to the resort the possibility of us backpacking to Nicaragua and how safe it would be. A bit skeptical on the answers we received, we decided to backpack to Nicaragua either way. Keep in mind, there is a tour that will take you into Nicaragua from Costa Rica and back. You have the option to spend the night or just purchase the Day tour. This tour will cost you around  $160 USD or more and that was way out of our budget. We both went with $100 CAD and we were able to sustain for the 2 days we were there including our transportation. Our Journey started on a Sunday morning. We caught our first ride to th...
