THE PROMISED IN THIS VIDEO:
I had a unique opportunity to meet, tour and interview with Wesam Behbehani and her sister, Weam, from Kuwait. Wesam, who focuses on off-the-beaten-path destinations, provides vicarious travel enjoyment to her 15,000 mostly Kuwaiti Instagram followers [@rosy_path] who are unable to travel due to prohibitive logistics and/or expense. See news coverage in Saipan's newspapers here:

THE PARABLE:
"Once upon a time, there was a Jamaican civil engineer living in New York City who hated his job. He followed his passion, started a sideline business, quit his job, escaped the rat race, ran off to a tropical island in the Pacific, and started a tourism business so he could give tours of the island to pretty girls every day! He now lives a nomadpreneur's dream life, while helping others do the same!" Read more and download Jamaican on Saipan at: https://www.jamaicanonsaipan.com.
