- Society & Culture
On this podcast we have meaningful conversations with guests who live in Jamaica one way or another. Podcast guests have the opportunity to tell their story on how they either moved to Jamaica fully or how they're able to spend extended periods of time here. Everyone on the podcast are in different phases of their Jamaica move story. Some have already retired here others are beginning to make their transition with frequent visits to the island. My hope is that listeners gain value in seeing how they too might be able to make the transition to Jamaica one day.

What’s Behind the Surge?
In this interview I sat down with the President of the Jamaica Hotel and Tourist Association, JHTA, Robin Russel. We talk about a variety of topics around the future of tourism in Jamaica as well as the Carribbean region. Robin is also a small hotel owner in Deja Resort in Montego Bay. They're a great Jamaican family owned and operated property that I have stayed at several times and highly recommend if you're looking for a great hotel in a great location, www.dejaresort.com.
