About
Born and raised in Jamaica, I am a travel junkie always looking for the next destination to discover and explore. Currently based in South Florida, and also a foodie who loves indulging local dishes one plate at a time. Anthony Bourdain said it best, “Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you.”
Travel style
I love that our planet is so big and beautiful for us to see, discover and explore new places to explore. Growing up in the Caribbean, my heart gravitates to warm, tropical beach destinations. My time spent living in the Northeast has created such wonder and amazement at both city and nature escapes. I find that the easiest way to immerse oneself during travel is learning about the culture and its gastronomic delights.

Carissa 's reviews
Carissa if there’s something more than 5 stars it would be that. She took her time and explained everything to my parents and I. I would always come back to her for any questions when it comes to travel booking. I will also recommend families and friends as well.
