For those wondering why there was no video last week… ummm… my computer kinda crapped out 😭
I’m in the process of trying to fix it but I’m waiting for some parts.
Unfortunately that means there also won’t be a video this week either, sorry.
I’ll get back to videos as soon as I have a working computer to get it done!

Ever been in Jamaica with nothing planned? 🇯🇲
We spent a full day on 7 Mile Beach in Negril seeing what you can do without leaving the sand — from coconuts to cliff-dives. ☀️🌊
What’s your go-to move on a beach day — chill or adventure? 👇

🌍✨ The Real Jamaica: Globetrotters’ Guide with @TravelwithToniann
If you’ve ever wondered what Jamaica is really like beyond the resorts, this episode is for you.
We sit down with Toni-Ann, a Kingston local and lifelong traveler, to talk about:
✅ Why Kingston is underrated (and why you shouldn’t skip it)
✅ The hidden gems most tourists never see
✅ What Jamaicans wish travelers knew before they visit
✅ How to explore Jamaica with respect, safety, and curiosity
This is more than just travel advice — it’s about experiencing Jamaica through the eyes of someone who calls it home. 🌴
🎥 Episode premieres tonight at 6PM MST on The Wander Crew YouTube channel!

Three kids. First time snorkelling. One glass-bottom boat out of Negril.
Here’s what worked with kids, what didn’t, and how we fixed a tiny drone panic.
Includes paid promotion. Hosted by Captain Mike.
Question:
What’s your best beginner tip for snorkelling with kids?

We tried a red-eye with kids to Jamaica… was it worth it?
This is our honest prequel to the Jamaica series. Calgary → Toronto → Montego Bay on no sleep, sensory overload at security, a tight transfer, and the moment we finally exhaled at the hotel. Here’s what worked, what didn’t, and what we’ll change next time.
👉 Watch: https://youtu.be/8W-_B9MNr3Q
Question:
What’s your red-eye rule with kids—always, sometimes, or never again?

Hey Crew! Quick update on this month’s Globetrotters’ Guide 🎙️
We’re moving the episode to Thursday, Sept 12th,and it’s going to be a special one. This time, I’ll be sitting down with the kids to talk through our recent trip to Jamaica 🇯🇲. Expect laughs, their unfiltered takes, and some behind-the-scenes stories we haven’t shared yet.
The good news? This also means you don’t have to wait two weeks for the next Jamaica video. We’re sliding the release forward to Friday, Sept 6th so you’ll still have new content this week.
Thanks for rolling with us as we keep building The Wander Crew story and keep watching for more updates!

A small, Jamaican-owned hotel helped make our first 1177 trip possible. We based our family in Negril at the Charela Inn on Seven Mile Beach. Calm water for the kids, food they actually ate, and staff who saved “our table” all week.
