But I defitenly agree (once again) with what you said and Shenmaat. When I went to Jamaica, I found the locals are very friendly, we even sat and talked to quite a few people to learn more about the culture and their daily lives. You'd be amazed how the economy differs so much from the US even though it is a major tourist country, the workers still don't get paid very much.
And yes, the vendors are a little pushy, but hey, aren't all salespeople?
As long as you follow the 'firm no thank you' (even if they put something in your hands), you will be fine. The people in Jamaica are nothing to be afraid of, they're just trying to get by one day at a time. They don't bite lol
