So some of you may know, many of you may not, and the majority, most likely don’t care that I have been traveling for the last month. I have spent time in seven countries and touched soil in nine.

It has been the single most interesting and satisfying period of my life trumping the loss of my virginity. I have seen and done things some people could only imagine. Touched people that millions can only touch on a TV screen, had some of the most thrilling of times, met the most amazing people. All the while completing possibly the most ambitious project I have yet been a part of. I sure hope it is a success.

The Region is truly a spectacle in all ways, and though we are one small piece of the planet within us exists worlds, worlds so different to what you know. It is so foreign so fascinating so close geographically it makes it all the more amazing. And the women…fuck…the women…I mean…look…all I have to say is when I land home I need to go to church and give some praise.

We are truly a beautiful people, so diverse and would be so strong if we took our heads from our asses and unfolded our hands. I have never been much of a Caribbean man, wont lie and say I am now, but I love her more and I see her potential, a potential as great as any other region in the world, we have all we need, and all we can ever want if we would apply ourselves and hold each others hand.

Jamaica, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Trinidad,Cuba, Grenada, it has been fun, I will be back sometime. I hope all this new experience means I get a pay raise, Peace!

Our generation is totally narcissistic ….so what?

…Religion…

Its true

Its true

Cant go to Cuba and not try a Cohiba…I mean you can but…come on its Cuba.

Havana…

This city is poetry, the most beautiful and the darkest kind.

I was spat into this world without a heart, only a muscle in my chest that keeps me breathing, breathing empty breaths, just living my days. I look for the palm that holds my heart, but lately I feel
as though my heart is not in one pair of hands but many.

Water of Guyana.

The world is so beautiful and fascinating when we look.

The world is so beautiful and fascinating in infinite ways to infinite people.

sometimes I wish the truth was a lie
