The Best Weekend in Abaco

For the entire year, I had been longing for an out island vacation. However, being busy with work, friends and the random things that come up in life I didn’t plan a trip and thought I would probably do it for my birthday or later on in the year. October or later seemed too far though, so one hot summer night, mid July I messaged my friend (when I should have been sleeping) about going to Abaco, Eleuthera or Exuma for the August Monday holiday. The next morning, I woke up to her saying that Abaco sounded great. In my disbelief, I asked if she was serious because I was serious and I was ready to book everything right now — and did! We booked flights and found a cute Airbnb in Marsh Harbour that same day. We had such a fun time and I’m so happy we went. Here’s everything we got up to.

My 30 Things To Do By 30

My 27th birthday is in a few weeks and I’ve been meaning to write down some things that I want to accomplish in the next three years.

You may be thinking pandemic and all, what’s even the point of making plans? I have hope and dreams though. In no particular order, here is my 30 Things to Do By 30.

Bahamian/Resident Rates for Your Next Staycation in Nassau

Quarantine is over, offices have reopened and even though we are still on a curfew, there’s a part of me that sometimes forget that we are in a pandemic. I think we will be living with Covid-19 for the foreseeable future. We have to stay as safe as possible while having some semblance of normalcy and enjoying what we can. I am not ready to travel out of the country as yet, but I do plan to visit an out island for the August Monday holiday. In the meantime, between time, I’m thinking of having a staycation right here, at home. I’ve seen a few hotels advertising Bahamian/Resident rates and figured it would be good to have them all listed in one place. I’ll keep updating this blog as the deals come!
