Welcome to the debut episode of Islands Uncovered! In this first journey, I dive into the impacts of Hurricane Melissa and what is happening from a travel advisors perspective as we work to get clients taken care of.

But it’s not all about resorts. Islands Uncovered is about the people and culture that make the Caribbean so special. I also take a moment to celebrate the life and legacy of Jamaican culinary icon Norma Shirley, whose influence helped shape modern Caribbean cuisine.

Join me, your travel agent and island insider, as I blend travel tips with cultural storytelling as I try to uncover the heart and soul behind the destinations you love.
