Curious,what is it that keeps some of us going to Negril. In the beginning for LOML (love of my life) and myself it was the beautiful beach and crystal clear sea we had not ever experienced before. As the 14 years we have been going have passed it has become as much about the people of Jamaica as much as the beautiful places we love. We now have treasured friends we are in contact with all the time. So just wondering what keeps you all going back.
This damn itch that I can't reach
ya'll know... ;)
We first traveled to Negril three years ago because we wanted a beach vacation in the Caribbean. Immediately we fell in love with the Jamaican people, the vibe, the value and the excellent food! Many of our friends, here in the states who have traveled to Jamaica, thought some of the people were rude and pushy. I believe they don't understand the culture and the work ethic of the Jamaican people. Granted there are those who are a turn-off but they are the minority.
The second trip we traveled with our friends. They also fell in love and are returning this year with some of their family members. This Nov will be our 4th reach. Each time we go we experience something new but continue to meet up with old friends.
It is the only place we can really relax, its more like home than home is.
Our family
In a lot of ways, it feels more like HOME in Negril than home does.
It just feels right there. Its more calmer and way more relaxed. Its just something, you can't explain to others until they experience it for themselves.
I first went because a friend kept bugging me about going. It was July and Hotter than Hell but I fell in love with the atmosphere, people and country - and NO, not with a man - LOL Since then I have been returning twice a year for about a month at a time and always feel so welcome when I arrive.
The vibe... like someone else said you cant explain it "You gotta go to know!"
I tripped on Jamaica from a cruise we was there for 4hrs had the best massage on the beach EVER! and that's all she wrote been going back every since minus the cruise...lol
8th reach soon come!
the food, meeting new and old friends, the beach, Seastar on sat nites, pub crawl, our resort..ROOMS, doing our own beach pub crawls, the smell of Jamaica when we walk out of mbj airport when we arrive, soon come
