Countries I'd Love to Visit

  • India!!!  Bollywood, handsome Indian men, beautiful Indian women, the food - which reminds me of Caribbean dishes, the colors, the history, the values, Hindu, the bustling lifestyle in Mumbai and the quieter atmosphere in the country... I could go on forever.  This is on the top of my list.
  • The Turks and Caicos  (my never ending passion for the Caribbean)
  • Senegal  A 90% Muslim African nation... I'm fascinated.  Plus every single Senegalese man I meet is so regal. 
  • Dubai  I love the idea of the metropolitan capital of the Middle East. 
  • Grenada  I LOVE the Eastern Caribbean.
  • Dominica  I LOVE the Eastern Caribbean.
  • St. Lucia  I LOVE the Eastern Caribbean.
  • Jamaica  I admire the strength in the Jamaican people.  Plus I have lots of Jamaican friends.
  • Haiti  Simply put - a resilient people.  And they led a successful slave revolt?!  I love how much of the African culture they have retained.  Plus back in 1940s, my grandmother lived there for a year as a dancer.
  • Nigeria  I've met TOO many Nigerians.  I like their mentality and I would love to visit Lagos.
  • Ghana  The slave forts, plus it reminds me of a large Caribbean island.  The nightlife also reminds me of night in Barbados.
  • Egypt  Self-explanatory. 
  • The Seychelles I hear this group of islands off the Western Coast of Africa are gorgeous.
  • Cape Verde  Caribbean-esque islands off the African coast with what I hear has a hot nightlife.
  • Angola  I've always wanted to see Luanda.  Angola borders Namibia, so I probably will get to see it!
  • Morocco  I love the spicy blend of Arab and African culture.
  • Papua New Guinea  Africans migrated to the South Pacific islands about 50,000 years ago.  Amazing.
  • Italy  I have to find out if Italian men love Black women like everyone says they do! 
  • France  I would love to mingle with the Black French diaspora. 
  • England  I would love to visit Brixton Market and mingle with the Black European diaspora (African and West Indian), as well as meet some dapper brother's like Idris (that accent...)
