I am PROUD TO BE A JAMAICAN! 🇯🇲

I plan on retiring to Jamaica 🇯🇲 in 2022 by the grace of GOD. Forget African Countries.. JAMAICA HERE MI COME..
Nice! What a gorgeous place to call home! Good luck!
Aye mom we will all be happy to see you bk in our country ❤️🥀
Happy to have you here
I remember when I was 18 my girlfriends and myself wanted to go to Jamaica our parents refused. Well we couldn’t go, but once we were a bit older we all went and had an amazing time. Myself have been there many many times. I love the island.
I agree! I love Jamaica!

Erik.Watching for the first time.Thanking you for your positivity and highlighting my country.Much love from the Uk.
Why am I crying watching this 😭 I’m so homesick 😩🇯🇲.
Cheer up! Jamaica is always just a flight away!
Sweet sweet Jamaica 🇯🇲
Yep! Agreed!
Anna-Kay is so elegant and charming. One can imagine how much you enjoyed her company. Also, your ability to get people to talk is endearing. Seeing your channel for the first time, and I'm hooked already.
Couldn't agree more, she is awesome! Thanks for the kind words! Help spread the word and thank you for watching!
Each time I go to Jamaica and I'm in St. Ann I have a meal at her restaurant. I love the veggie rundown.
On point , everything. I am missing home, genuine people, love the culture. Just amazing!!
You are too kind, thank you.

This was soooooo fun to watch!!!1 The lady at Chukka and the guy at the cave sold it for me! The lady at Dunn's River was also good. Loved it. Planning a trip
Jamiaca is a nation of over 2million ppl of which about 50,000 live in so call "ghettos" the rest lives in beautiful urban or rural areas...gated communities are few..we might be poor but we got great vibs..happy ppl..one love ..jamaica love🇯🇲❤
One Love!
Ghettos all over the world in every country. Called by different names of I course!
agreed!
Kennedy Richards Yes Idren 🙌 I agree with you 💯 about this " so called Ghettos thing "
Fiesty them Fiesty.
I never use/d that slang @ any time. I had noticed certain terms of areas are stained only to a single group of people.
Most of these highest living areas are made up of high quality flying 🪰 crooks.
Ghettos attached to Nebuchadnezzar's Tribes. Not Godly traits: But Baal's groups.
@Zeidane Hall smh 😥
Country road take me home🎶🎶🎶 one love one heart let's get together and FEEL alright🎶🎶🎶😷
Ha! Brilliant!
Good job Erik on showcasing parts of my country Jamaica 🇯🇲
God knows how much I love my country Ja
Agreed!
Beautiful Island. As each guide mentioned, the personality of the people is what makes it what it is. I'm a proud Jamaican 🇯🇲. ✌🏿💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿
Excellent to hear this! We are making plans for a return visit this year!
Love this Video Thank you so much , Love my Beautiful Island 🇯🇲 jam our History & also our Culture
Agreed!
My man at Green Grotto was excellent!
He was so much fun to hang out with!
Seeing the horses made me remember my time on the Norwegian reefer ships on the banana trade between Jamaica and London back in 66/67 and 70/71. Mostly bananas, but also some mail, citrus fruits and Tia Maria from Jamaica to London, and general cargo from London to Jamaica. And on some trips also horses from London to Jamaica. The crew on Norwegian ships back then would come from all around Norway, also some from farms. So the horses was taken well care of.
You could write good books 📚👌
History...love it❤ You should share your experience on a larger platform!
I’m loving your video. Mouth-watering, finger -liking foods, in conjunction with your humility. You ROCK it girl 💪🏽
Thank you so much 🤗
You will never regret a Jamaican vacation
Agreed! 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
This is a wonderful engaged work on travelling, is like taking a history course in a nutshell and Erik's passion in doing so adds to the quality of the experience of watching this
Victor! You are the best! Thank you for the kind words!
@@Erikthetravelguy Thx for the detailed tour of the caves. I've never been inside & I felt I was RIGHT THERE WITH YOU! 👏💃 🎉🎊
▪ Here's a tip for channel success: *Ask people to not only subscribe but to watch AT LEAST ONE AD UNTIL THE END.* 😁
Erik this "made my mouth water", a Jamaican saying! You deserve a new subscriber
Diana, I am not worthy of your public praise! I promise to keep the mouthwatering episodes coming for years to come!
Sweet bro this is definitely an expensive trip you would never forget 🙏🏽my daughter invited me to watch this show ;it’s awesome
He is the GOAT, Usain Bolt featured in my SONG, to be telecasted in 200 nation worldwide, czcams.com/video/xzyE3WqWbhM/video.html if you like my songs let me know, where can I FIND your songs?
Thank you very much! Expense is relative. I would save to make sure to stay at an all inclusive. Air can be expensive based on where your departing from. But you can find good deals into Kingston and then ten a car.
I'm so proud 😍 to be Jamaican, a swear,. mi love ❤️😍 mi county so, so beautiful ❤️❤️, up to the sky and back, yep! To the world!

Agree, Paul!!!
Thanks for highlighting Jamaica 🇯🇲. We definitely have a lot to offer!
Yes you do!!!🇯🇲❤️🇯🇲❤️🇯🇲
This tour guide through the cave is very knowledgeable, and well spoken.
What’s else did you expect?
Thanks Gennis!
@idioms master I think Gennis Parris is a little offended by the "well spoken" part of the sentence.
Well spoken! Didn't you expect him to be " well spoken " on the job. He's interacting with a tourist so he speaks to him in a common language with proper enunciation. That's what professionals do
My only comment is get out of the hotels and surrounding businesses and travel in land and meet the people , and put real money into the economy, if you stay in the hotels the money leaves the island straight away, but a must go island
I find jamaica is the island that has the total cultural Caribbean package....
Well said!
Love this 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Thanks for showcasing my beautiful Island 🏝️
It was my pleasure!!!
Beautiful property and lovely presentation. Love it!

Excellent Jessica! What is your favorite place you’ve visited?
Hawaii
Holy crap! I love Hawaii!
Home 🏡 my roots
I have not had run-down meal since I was a kid..and by the way, run-down food was mostly for the poor.. as the restsuranture was saying.. it's made with grated coco it juice. You add food items, spices and herbs.
There are times no meant because some people could afford meat. You boiled down to a creamy flavorful consistency. My mom would make run-down when she had no meat and rice to cook. It's great to see run-down being served as a cultural meal and is no longer seen as a poor person's dish.
Agreed! What a cool comment. Thank you.
That was then. Everybody doing rundown now.
It was good! Salted mackerel was not cheap in those days. Every Jamaican back then will tell you , they have eaten “Run dung” many times” I wish I had some to eat right now!
I'm hungry just thinking about it!
African Culture & 🇯🇲 jam Culture Love it . Give thank to the most High God Yahweh
Love me Jamaica
Love it too!
