Made me think of the origins of the 1972 song “Dancing in the Moonlight,” written by Sherman Kelly, a hit single by the band King Harvest

Once on a TDY to the US Consulate in Curaçao, I had a rental car and decided to drive around the island. The towns away from the tourist areas are ghettos and you don’t want to stop anywhere. Heard the same from people who went to Jamaica for work except it was more dangerous in Kingston, especially if you were with a co-worker on the trip who was a younger black female. No desire to “vacation” anywhere around the Caribbean. What the black Haitians did to the white French colonists in Haiti should always be kept in mind when visiting that region.

When I was in Jamaica they said be careful when off the hotel property. I think that’s been standard there for 50 years.
And don’t get me started on Mexico.

Something about relocating (or visiting) U.S. Territories so go tropical without leaving the U.S.

Forgotten American Territories Where You Can Live Free (from visas and passports and foreign currency exchange)

Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands (Saipan), American Samoa, Then Compact of Free Association countries -- Palau, Marshall Islands, Micronesia

**comments from viewer have additional info about these places.
