I get highly emotional when people say all Caribbean islands are the same. They are really not! . Go to Dominica for the nature .Go to Antigua for the beaches .Go to Jamaica for the food & music .Go to Trinidad for the carnival .Go to Cuba for the 1950’s vibe . .

I want Jamaicans to know that if you travel to visa-free countries first you’re “more likely” to “finally” get that US visa. Your passport is almost like your “resume” or track record as I like to call it.
