My first time there by Kayla Elliott

was great, but i didn’t get to see much of it because of a jellyfish that got a little too close. I’d love to go again to see a little more than tourist traps. And on a random thought, there was a lot of nice Europeans there (one that accidentally took me out with a stairway door, complete accident).

The Most Homophobic Place On Earth--Don't Go by SebastianSplendid

Human rights activists have given Jamaica the infamous title: “The Most Homophobic Place on Earth.” If you love your gay friends and family members, you won’t visit Jamaica. If you care about the human rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, you won’t buy Jamaican products.

Isn’t it time we stop rewarding this hate state with our tourism dollars? Isn’t it time to stop drinking Jamaican beverages, such as Myers Rum and Red Stripe Beer?

This nation should be avoided at all costs until the Jamaican government takes action to end the country’s virulently homophobic climate and draconian laws that persecute homosexuals. Until Jamaica takes the following easy steps an official boycott is in effect:

1) Publicly commit to end gay bashing on the island and improve the human rights situation

2) A statement from the Prime Minister clearly and unequivocally condemning violence against GLBT people and expressing regret for past violence

Bring your sun tan lotion! by Leighton Chandler

I went here when I went on a Royal Caribbean cruise. It was really pretty, but I got a horrible sunburn. Haha (:

The people there REALLY want you to buy their merchandise. They were constantly following me around, asking if they could braid my hair. But it was still very fun.
