The honeymoon continues: Our last-minute change of plans had us flying out of Guyana with the ultimate goal of rejoining a point further down the road on our original route but saving a lot of overland hassle. There aren’t a lot of flight options out of Guyana to […]
Ammon and Sasha’s adventure continues: We flew from Trinidad to Suriname to finally hit the mainland and officially start the South American portion of the trip. The initial plan was to see what the Guianas are all about and when ready continue south into the Brazilian Amazon. Of […]
Barbados – the beginning of Ammon and Sasha’s honeymoon.
Saint Lucia is an absolutely stunning island country in the Caribbean. Saint Lucia had been on my radar for years and was even MORE than I dreamed it could be. It is the only country that I have ever said, “I could live here,” again, and again, and […]
Jamaica was one of the very first trips Kees and I took after the big world journey we met on. It was a huge contrast for me having come from extreme, budget travel to my first-ever luxury resort. It was hard to comprehend. Jamaica was also the first-ever […]

This IS the life! We waved goodbye to the remarkable, velvet covered Piton peaks as we left the Soufriere area in the south of St. Lucia island. Heading north to Castries and Gros Islet (Rodney Bay) along a mountainous, curvy road through the countryside we were dazzled by […]
Last week on #TRLT our topic was bursting with flavor. Be prepared for a tastebud frenzy. Cuisine is a subject that ignites the most vivid of memories through my senses, taking me back to moments from around the world where I indulged in some of the freshest, most […]
We made it safely to Saint Lucia, country #109, and had a gorgeous 45 minute drive with a private chauffeur who was extremely friendly, informative and enthusiastic about his country. He took us to the steps of the Ladera Resort where we were welcomed with smiles, cold […]
Unfortunately I have not yet been to Cuba but LUCKILY someone in my family has been. Earlier this year, Ammon and Sasha went to Cuba and this is what he has to say about Cuba: “Cuba is a hard country to write about without getting political because it […]
Dominican Republic was my second trip to the Caribbean and I loved it. It was a very special trip because we celebrated Kees’ mom, Maria’s 80th birthday there with his whole side of the family at an all-inclusive resort. We had such a wonderful vacation enjoying buffet meals, […]
