One Love

When you get to Ocho Rios, just look for the most colorful bus dressed in coconuts and Bob Marley lyrics and hop on board for an adventure of a lifetime. As you head to Mount Zion, your driver will sing classic reggae tunes and tell you stories of Bob Marley’s life while you enjoy the green scenery and a Red Stripe. When you get to Mount Zion, you enter through a giant wooden gate that takes you to see where the legend himself used to live and where his final resting place is now. It's an amazing day of history, music, and love.

One Lucky Sailboat

The magic of Fiji is that every island has its own mystical charm that whispers in the warm breeze. With each step you take in the sand, you have no idea where that days adventure will take you. No island is the same, with it's own story and welcoming locals to share it with you over a traditional kava ceremony.

One of my most cherished memories of Fiji was flying from the island Blue Lagoon to Nadi on Turtle Airways. Seeing all of the different plots of sand sprinkled with palm trees and maybe a beach hut or two, I fell in love with all the shades of blue and untouched beauty. In that moment I thankfully forgot for a few seconds it was my last day in paradise and completely took in the view... it might have been my last day in the islands for this trip, but Fiji has never left my heart.

The Cat Has Spoken

You can tell how good a place is by the company they keep. As you drive by the shrimp farms and shrimp trucks along the North Shore of Oahu, how do you pick which one to stop at? A full, happy cat napping next to Giovanni’s graffiti-clad truck told me this was the one. And sure enough, the cat was right. The spicy shrimp was right up my alley, served with garlic rice and homemade macaroni salad. If you’ve ever wondered why cats lick their paws after eating a good meal, dig into your shrimp plate and you’ll soon understand why…
