Your Black&White Island Itinerary, BeforeYou Even Booked the Trip (Jamaica Edition)

I’m Nika!
—an adrenaline rush seeker who can’t sleep from excitement on nights before my next trip.

And if you're anything like me, I started this blog for you!

My goal is to retire the 9-to-5 life with my boyfriend and become full-time travel influencers!

Do you think I can pull it off?

Where My Love for Travel Started

I grew up on a beautiful island.
A place where people all over the world save their money and vacation days just to visit.

A tiny dot on the map — but filled with sandy beaches, clear skies, and endless adventure.

Jet skiing.
Boat rides.
Scuba diving.
Snorkeling.
Hiking through the hills.

Or just pure relaxation at famous spots like Half Moon Resort, Couples Tower Isle, or Sandals Montego Bay.

And if you like fun activities?
Cool Runnings Water Park.
Mystic Mountain Adventure Park.
Dolphin Cove to swim with dolphins.

Glass-bottom boat rides to see sea creatures glide by.
Or even horseback riding on the beach.

People save up for months to come here.
I was lucky enough to be born here...
On the island of Jamaica!

Not everyone here gets the chance to explore the island like tourists do.
But growing up, I started exploring during summer breaks.

Those days are where my love for travel began.

I remember the feeling before every trip with my family.
The night before, I couldn’t sleep.

My swimsuit was already laid out.
My bag was packed.

And even though I’ve never been a morning person…
I’d wake up before everyone else, buzzing with excitement.

Up before the sun.
Breakfast made.
Ready to go.

I couldn’t wait for the adventure ahead.

These weren’t overseas trips.
We didn’t need airplanes.

But these were my highlights.

The memories I still talk about today.

That thrill of exploration… that spark for adventure… it started right here at home.

And it never left me.

Now, as an adult, choosing how I want to live my life, that same spark feels like a shaken-up champagne bottle — ready to burst!

That’s why I started this blog.
To share that excitement.

To connect with people who live for adventure…
Or those just planning their next trip…

Or even those who simply love binging travel stories and dreaming along with me.

This is where my love began.
And this is why I want to take you along for a travel-craved life.

The Vision

My journey and love for adventure has led me here…
To the dream of becoming a full-time travel blogger and influencer.

Not just me, but with my other half.
He adores this lifestyle just as much as I do.

Together we’ve done spontaneous trips.
Planned group trips.

And couple getaways where it’s just the two of us — chasing waterfalls, rivers, hikes, and hidden gems across Jamaica.

But our vision is bigger.

We want to explore foods from different cultures.
Try cuisines in countries far from home.

And bring you along with us for the ride.

We’re adventurers at heart.
Thrill-seekers who crave that rush of adrenaline.

We dream of hot air ballooning...
Paragliding.
Skydiving.
Freediving.

Experiences that shake you out of routine and make you feel alive.

Because let’s be real…
You don’t get moments like that sitting at a 9-to-5 desk five days a week.

And I know we’re not the only ones.
So many people out there share this dream.

And so many are already living it — proving it’s possible.

This is my starting point.
This blog is my foundation.

And my promise to you, my reader, is this:

To give value to fellow dreamers and adventurers.
To share ideas, tips, and recommendations for your next trip.
To inspire you to start.
To remind you that your bucket list is worth chasing.

Because if you’ve ever felt that spark inside you too…

Then you’re exactly where you belong.
