I met Miss Nal(da James) on the beach at Whitehouse in 1984. My wife and I were taking a dip and several kids came down after school let out to check out the strangers.

When we mailed the photos, she wrote back and asked us to bring her to the states. We wrote back and told her we doubted that her family would want her to leave. Her mom replied that, no, they were very supportive. Well, this can't be something you can do is it? Turns out, there were no obstacles or even costs for school. We had to convince the Embassy to grant her a visa and soon we flew down to JFK to meet Miss Nal and she started school the next day. It had been a year since we met her on the beach. It was February in upstate NY. Miss Nal excelled in school, but was deeply homesick. We couldn't convince her to stick it out until school ended so she was on her way back home to Jamaica in April.

We visited the family a year later and it's that portrait that is my favorite Jamaica pic of all time. Flash forward nearly 20 years and Miss Nal tracked me down on Facebook and LinkedIn. She grew up and started working at a resort in Whitehouse where she met a couple who owned a resort in Maine. Eventually, she went to work for them and got a certificate as a home health aid. Last we talked, her oldest son was living with her here and attending community college. Her husband was raising a younger child in Jamaica. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the James family of Whitehouse! --Marblehead
most Jamaicans no matter how badly they want to come to "foreign" are very homesick when they have about 2 weeks away from home.
the life in JA is not appreciated until they leave it, thats why we love it so....
Nice thread
