Stay : A week in Jamaica
Caricatured by the collective imagination, Jamaica is far from looking like what some people imagine. If the rasta culture and the ganja volutes are certainly present, the island-reggae remains nevertheless of a breathtaking beauty. From the powerful Blue Mountains to the cliffs of Treasure Beach, passing by the enchanting beaches of the west, a week in Jamaica will overcome prejudices.
