The “Land of 10,000 Lakes” and I go way back, as one of my earliest travel memories, in the 1970s, though my family only visited Minneapolis and the also appealing city of St. Cloud, about an hour north. And of course one of my favorite TV shows when I was a kid, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, was set in Minneapolis.

Stepping off the plane in capital Kingston earlier this year, I was immediately greeted by a symphony of sounds: reggae beats drifting from open-air cafes, the chatter of street vendors, and the distant buzz of traffic weaving through the city.

These days we´re all so busy with our daily lives, personal and professional, that we have less time to spend with our friends. We need to plan everything in advance to spend quality time with our friends remember old times and create new memories together. The most common reason for not communicating with your group is your professional commitments but you still want to spend some quality time with them and ease some of your FOMO (fear of missing out).
