Listen. Seriously. Sharkies over in Runway Bay near Grand Bahia resort has amazinggggggggg food. From their rundown shrimp, to festival, to fish and okra with veggies. It's an outdoor dining experience with the beach right by you so you get delicious authentic food, good vibes, relaxing waves and ofcourse chill tunes on the speakers playing. Also, the KFC tastes way better in Jamaica than in US. And if you are looking for fresh authentic patties, find your nearest Tastee.

Ahhhhhh Rome!!! I've been twice and cant wait to go back again. There is so much to see if you love ancient architecture, ruins, and statues. If you are with a group or solo you will have fun. I received so much kindness as a black woman and felt safe walking alone at night in my airbnb area which had a diverse group of people from Italy, Nigeria, Bangladesh, etc (Pigneto, Rome). Definitely recommend doing the Rome Colosseum Pub Crawl, you get to try new bars while sightseeing at night and meet new people. There are plenty of historical sights and alluring shops just from doing a walking tour around Trevi, piazza navona, spanish steps, etc. If you can, get a pedi-cab tour so that you can quickly see what piques your interest, then make a plan to come back. If you need a spa day, Waldorf Astoria is great and relaxing with a nice walking trail and pool accessible to spa guest in the quieter side of rome. The massages are affordable and staff have great service.

The people in Bali were so sweet on my trip in April 2019. Traveling with a group trip of 20+ black girls, I didnt have any major concern for safety and didnt notice anyone looking at us weird. The nightlife is so hype with locals and tourists (we went to la favela), beaches are chil with good small restaurants and shopping in Ubud is easy especially if you know how to haggle to get more savings. I felt bad about how cheap things already were so I didnt care to haggle much. There is plenty of local and diverse cuisine so you dont have to worry about going hungry or finding something to suit your taste buds.
