Introducing Jamaica

Jamaica has long been a jewel in the Caribbean tourism industry crown, but there’s far more to discover than just beaches and all-inclusive resorts.

Island Riddims

With Bob Marley, Jamaica gifted us the first global superstar from the developing world. But he didn’t spring from nowhere – this tiny island has musical roots that reach back to the folk songs of West Africa and forward to the electronic beats of contemporary dancehall. Simply put, Jamaica is a musical powerhouse, a fact reflected not just in the bass of the omnipresent sound systems, but in the lyricism of the patois language and the gospel sounds from the island’s many churches. Music is life in Jamaica, and you’ll soon find yourself swaying along with it.

Jah’s Garden

Ask any expat Jamaican what they miss about their island, and the answer is inevitably the landscape itself, that great green garden that constitutes one of the most beautif ... Read more »

Italy

Italy's stunning Mediterranean coastline and climate make it a popular destination to travel to. Rural towns offer a glimpse of traditional Italian life, whilst the bustling cities provide stunning architecture, world-famous landmarks and a vibrant nightlife. Structural remnants of the Roman Empire scatter the country and a visit to a traditional Baths is a must.

Getting Around Jamaica

Jamaica Neighborhoods

Jamaica is divided into 14 parishes, each of which is home to respective towns, neighborhoods and often b eaches. Within these provinces, some popular areas of the island for tourists are Negril, Montego Bay (often referred to as "MoBay") and Ocho Rios. These areas are home to most of the popular resorts, many of which offer all-inclusive packages. But the island is much more diverse than other Caribbean destinations, so visitors should also check out the jungles, plains, rivers and towns of Jamaica, too.

Kingston

Sitting on the southwest coast is Jamaica's capital city, Kingston, which is one of the most populated cities on the island. But you wouldn't come here for the beaches; rather, Kingston is where the core of Jamaica's culture lies. Art galleries, theaters and music venues rub elbows with lively clubs, shopping spots and restaurants. Business travelers usually stay here, but le ... Read more »

Rail travel in Japan is daunting. The stations can be hectic places with multiple rail lines converging, meaning not only do you have to decipher the signs you also have to wade through the crowds. But train travel in Japan is a pleasure. Nowhere on earth are trains as accurate, down to the second usually, and the staff is knowledgable and friendly.

Once you understand some basics it's not bad at all. First, the subway and rail lines use a color matching system. So even if you can't read the characters as you rush through a station you can always match the colors. Second, most station names and information use the Western (i.e. English) alphabet, known as 'romajii' in Japanese. (Some small, rural stations might not have much information in English, but if you're adventurous enough to hit the countryside this is a small obstacle!) Finally, there are abundant resources to help you get around, from Web sites to iPod/PDA apps that detail the rail systems, and the s ... Read more »
