Current Rock of Residence:
Puerto Rico
Island Girl Since:
2016
Originally Hails From:
Phoenix, Arizona (the largest city on the surface of the Sun, yes it gets that HOT)
Jennifer lives in a sleepy little town on the East coast of Puerto Rico. Joining her on this adventure is one brave man, an elderly Labrador, and a newly adopted island cat. A day stopover in Old San Juan was enough to fall in love with this island, which resulted in a one-way ticket purchase a couple of years later beginning this new island life.
Jennifer gave up big city living for a simpler life, which somehow still involves running multiple IT consulting companies and two (double the crazy) blogs! Work days are spent on the patio desk enjoying the Caribbean breeze and listening to the cows grazing nearby.
Her days off are spent SCUBA diving, snorkeling, begging for rides on friends and stranger’s boats, hiking around her rock, exploring every rumor of a waterfall, or sipping a delicious rum beverage at the beach.

Call me Cruella de Vil
I want to talk to you guys about the one time I "kidnapped" a dog and how I think I'm paying for it in Karma. Taking a brief trip into yesteryear, there used to be a bar and restaurant right next to the condo I live in. Said restaurant would host loud parties which...
The Perfect Island Community
"If you look at an island for what it is, it's a piece of land, surrounded by water that appears to stand alone. It's true that there are no united states or neighbouring unions. It floats in the middle of the ocean, seemingly disconnected from the rest of the world....
