    This was a fantastic interview . The lady is actually my dearly beloved Aunt whom I always show off that a have this pretty petite aunt with blue eyes !!😂😂😂. It was only later on in life I realized they were hazel and not blue eyes ..😂😂😂
    She’s one of the kindest brilliant humble human being to encounter and has been there for me throughout my ups a downs. She’s my mentor my counselor and spiritual advisor . Congratulations on your book Aunt Elaine and I’m looking forward for my copy . God Bless U and I Love U immensely 😇😇🙏🏿🙏🏿❤️❤️

    Great interview with Elaine. I have some great friends from Bluefields. A group of Nicaraguans stated a Moravian Fellowship in their homes and later rented space at the Espiscooal Church. Then Jamaicans and other West Indian Islanders joined the group. We worked together to build The Prince of Peace Moravian Church located at the corner of 183 St and 19th Avenue. Some of the most loving people I have met.

      Wow. That is amazing. Thank you for sharing that information and the Jamaican connection. I hope to visit one day and will keep that church in mind.

      I had a stop over at the Blue Fields airport but I never went hanging out there. I met a Jamaican guy in Corn Island that got lost at sea and ended up there. My friends sisters were sent to Jamaica UWI in the 70's and 80's for their education...

    I am from Clarendon now living in the US. We're planning of visiting Corn Island for our 23rd anniversary. I've been watching videos on Nicaragua and Corn Island and I'm learning that Jamaican's have contributed a lot to their infrastructure and other influences typical of the Caribbean Coast. I also found out that they make Rundown!! Can't was to experience this culture. Wonderful interview! Ms. Elaine contributed much to my knowledge. Thank you!

    Great interview, and a very warm, beautiful and personable lady. My Sister Neva, was working for UNDP in Guatemala and Nicaragua for several years, it is quite possible that they may have crossed paths. My Sister is half-Chinese but Jamaican to the core. Anyway...once again you've nailed it. Merry Christmas Xavier.

      @@xmurphy2485 Unfortunately Xavier, every family has drama and I am not on good terms with my Sister. She is my Sister by my father's side, and not by my Mother. She is a bit older than me, and since she was raised in JA and we in UK we were never close. She didn't do right by my Father so our last meeting was not positive, at this point, I just lift them up daily in prayer and wish them the best. For the sake of my Dad I did try to reconcile but it was not reciprocated, sufficient to say that if I had a few letters after my name, millions in the Bank and was a person of influence, I would be tired of seeing them.
