I was born and raised in Barbados, but have been a lifelong traveller until 2012 when I took a siesta from plane rides and constant car drives to start working (mostly) from home. The tempo and scenery change, as well as a fresh start as a new creation, was a part of what inspired me to start a blog.
When you get used to jumping in a car and hopping on a plane on a regular, it can be a bit of an escape – a temporary one, at least…and you can sometimes grow impatient being in one location.

I moved to a farm beside a lush gully on the south east and started growing food and hiking.
Life went from doing everyday errands with my passport always sitting in my bag, ready for the next booking that came with a plane ticket, fancy hotel room and big stage, to recording in the home studio, watching green monkeys breeze in the trees facing the balcony, catching water when it went off, and fishing.
I had started to get antsy about being in one place until I saw it as an invitation to enjoy slow mornings, nature walks, learn how to cook better, document a bit of the beauty in creation and enjoy decorating the home.
Now, life on the west is a lot different scenery-wise – thankful still!
Yes, I want to book a day drive or nature walk in Bim.

It dawned on me that a small seed of ingratitude was growing in my heart. Yes, being a creative entrepreneur here was tough but still – I live where many save up for a whole year to visit for a week.
Had I gotten used to the turquoise sea of the calmers coasts, melodies of tropical birdsongs, golden sands decorated with beautiful shells and dried sea fans, barefoot walks on de grass outside, coconut and casuarina trees dancing in the fresh air…the sweet aroma of frangipani flowers…the taste of delicious pawi mangoes and roast breadfruit…? Not at all…so the answer was, and still is to…
Make the most of the gift of life while we have breath and time

After traveling to 20+ destinations and working as a tour guide in stints to support my music career, I decided to embrace the opportunity and accept the challenge of finding new places and enjoying outdoor adventures on one island.
Feel free to share the link to a post or page you like, with a friend who is planning on visiting Barbados.
Travel tip: A lot like to romanticize about Caribbean living, like how many in the region fantasize about ‘The American Dream.’ Please be smart and safe wherever you travel.
Bim has its challenges like everywhere has its own issues, and most places are about an 45 mins to hour or so drive away so there’s no burying your head in the sand when situations arise, but the island itself…is so beautiful.
