about me

Hello friends! I’m Jessica Berman.

Welcome to my luxury family travel and lifestyle blog. I’m an island girl, no apologies needed. 30 years of my life was spent in Antigua, now you know why the name Antigua girl. Antigua is a small island in the Eastern Caribbean, 108 squares of dotted with 365 beautiful, white sandy beaches and beautiful people.

I moved to Miami to attend college in 2004 and graduated in 2007 with BA in Travel & Tourism Management from Florida International University. I give all credit to mom, who encouraged and supported my educational goals.

I moved to Fort Lauderdale in 2007, got married in 2010, (still married) and our daughter was born in 2012. My husband and I enjoy traveling with our daughter. I married a foodie, a man who enjoys good authentic food experiences and who also loves to cook. How did I get so LUCKY?

We are an interracial couple, with a bi-racial child, what do you think are some of the challenges we face when we travel? Follow our travel and food adventures to learn more about the places and food we love and tips on how to deal with the assumptions that people will make when you are an interracial couple.
