      Foreword

      Congratulations! And Welcome To The Jamaica Insider Guide.

      If you have been around my-island-jamaica.com for any time, then you will know how much I love my country, and also how I really wanted to share this publication with you.

      Well it’s finally here!

      Over the years, I’ve gotten hundreds of questions about Jamaica and vacationing here, seriously.

      From ‘Where is Jamaica?’ to how to relocate here. Interestingly too, I’ve also gotten many questions from local teachers, students and fun lovers, asking me, for example, ‘where to take students on a trip?’ and ‘where to disappear to for a weekend?’

      Essentially though, I was convinced that in addition to learning more about the country, people just wanted to know how to really enjoy Jamaica.

      Many of these insightful queries pushed me to do much deeper research, allowing me to deliver real value to my site visitors - and this publication takes it to the next level!

      It captures the best of Jamaica from my eyes - the insider, but I’ve also gain immeasurable information and insights from family, friends and others who have been here before.

      I’ve taken all that and has delivered it to you in a very personable, refreshing and easy to read format that you’ll love. I sincerely hope you enjoy it as much as I did bringing it to you.

      Love & Thanks,

      Wellesley
