This was fairly interesting to read. I am Jamaican, whilst it is true that we Jmaicans have a very relaxed nature, most of us do not live in huts. I appreciate your article none the less, but I think it is safe to say you have only visited the most rural areas of the country. Your article only propagates the stereotype that a lot of foreigners have of Jmaicans being extremely backward and quite tribal in our way of life. Please be more careful next time and also be more considerate of the people your are attempting to portray. lol. This was fairly interesting to read.

You raise a good point. In a land where catastrophe is practically a season, Jamaica shows that people can live in luxury by essentially valuing precious little. All they need is their land, air and ocean. And maybe a massive pull on a joint every now and again. something every American could take to heart in terms of material wealth and what it really means in the long run. Fantastic.
