I Came out of Belize Tattoo Expo Impressed and in Shock!
We revisited the international Belize Tattoo Expo this past weekend and walked out the arena totally impressed with the works of art by the professional tattoo artists but also in shock after we witnessed the freak show that was part of the expo’s entertainment lineup. Both the tattoos and the freak show have become a […]
Eat More Lionfish and Save the Belize Barrier Reef
I say “Eat more Lionfish and save the reef while you are at it.” It’s delicious, even RAW! I had my first taste of raw fish at during Ambergris Caye’s Reef Week Lionfish tournament. Dipped in a little soy sauce, Mmmmm! Yummy! That’s the best thing about Lionfish – they are delicious, so you don’t […]
Attempting 36 Treatments in One Day at Victoria House Spa
Our mission – to experience the 36 different spa treatments at the Victoria House Spa in one day; is it all possible? Greedy, maybe!? Jeje!! Then I thought about it – kind of impossible when a full body scrub and relaxing facial took us most of the morning. Wishful thinking on my part, but a […]
Living the Island Dream and Drinking it Too
The Island Dream – a house on the beach, a golf cart to get around (heck even a bicycle works), lazy days on the beach, adventures at sea, glorious sunrises, fiery sunsets, cool trade winds, hammock siestas and the security of a close knit community. Oh! and tropical cocktails; can’t forget that. Speaking about cocktails, […]

With Charles Worthington from Estel’s Dine by the Sea preparing some of the best BBQ ribs and meat on the island, […]
Simone Biles Calls Belize Her Second Home
I don’t know how we ended up inside the Simone Biles motorcade in Belize City yesterday, but somehow during all the chaos we did. When asking to get ahead of it for media shots, a traffic officer directed us behind the police truck in the lead. LOL!! So there we were in the center of […]
Everybody is Talking About Kakaruchi’s Grill?
A couple weeks ago, I learned that Kakaruchi is now cooking up a storm at his new diner. Who, you might ask? – You know, Enrique Luna! Everyone on the island of Ambergris Caye knows him as Kakaruchi, a nickname he got stuck with when he moved to San Pedro! He has jumped on the […]
We Went to Placencia to Do Nothing at All
It is so easy to ABSOLUTELY do NOTHING at ALL in Placencia and not feel guilty about it. After a few crazy months of work and then visits to the hospital it was totally worth taking at least a couple days to relax on the beach, sway in a hammock and take siestas all day […]
