S T R E E T ✨ A R T 🖼 I love discovering street art while I discover a city. I came by this on a building in Lisbon, Portugal a few weeks ago. It looks to be making a political statement.

M I S S I N G M A R R A K E C H 🐪 I had the privilege of traveling to Morocco 🇲🇦 this year and I had a wonderful time. During my time there, I stayed in a riad for a few days. It was a relaxing and fun experience staying in a beautiful space, being taken care of by my host, and meeting other travelers. If you’re planning a trip to Marrakech, you should definitely consider staying in a riad. #KizzyKingston #LiveLearnTravelInspire #TravelWithKizzy #riadrosemeryam #riad #marrakech (at Riad Rose Meryam) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByY4QmaBODr/?igshid=1sxqj9a8z1t1u

Bon dia! Here I am enjoying the beautiful sunshine coming into my room at the @doubletreelisbon right before going out to explore the city. Ricardo and the staff at this hotel are amazing.

A T L A N T A • U N I T E D Enjoying the #ATLANTAUNITED win in the #AMGLounge. I like being able to chill in the lounge up to 30 minutes after the game and not having to make a mad dash to leave with the rest of the crowd. #KizzyKingston #LiveLearnTravelInspire #ForeverILoveAtlanta (at Mercedes-Benz Stadium) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwx96COhf_w/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lu3n58q0234u

D O N’ T W O R R Y 🎵✨ I had THE best time during my trip to Jamaica. 🇯🇲 I was able to visit several parts of the island country and met wonderful people. Although it wasn’t my first time to JA, it was the first time visiting the Bob Marley Museum. I enjoyed getting to tour the home where the reggae legend worked, lived, and played and learning more about his life. Fun fact: Bob Marley was 5 ft 6! However, his energy and talent made him larger than life. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - If you’re planning a visit to Jamaica, you have to visit the Bob Marley Museum. It’s located in Kingston and about a 2.5-3 hour drive from Montego Bay or a 3.5-4 hour drive from Negril. You’ll want to make the visit to Kingston a full day trip or an overnight adventure. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - They don’t allow photos inside of the museum during the guided tour but you can take as many as you want outside. The grounds are filled with wall art, information, and a statue of Bob Marley. The sun was wicked bright in Jamaica and practically photobombed my selfie but I’m not worried as I still captured the fun I had during my visit. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - “Three Little Birds” is one of my favorite Bob Marley songs. I pretty much love everything he wrote, especially from the Exodus album. What is your favorite Bob Marley song? #VisitJamaica #KingstonJamaica #BobMarley #KizzyKingston #LiveLearnTravelInspire #TravelWithKizzy (at Museo Bob Marley) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvrZQa7B29K/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=sayw6jje0ahx

M I A M I V I C E ✨ Have you heard of #MiamiVice? Not the 80’s TV show, the drink. I just discovered that there is a cocktail called a Miami Vice and apparently it’s internationally known. You may not see it on the bar menu but your bartender will know how to make it. Essentially, it’s strawberry daiquiri, pinacolada, with a little blue curaçao on top. - - - - - - - - - - - When I was a kid I loved getting BombPops from the ice cream truck. The Miami Vice is like a #BombPop for adults. Well, almost since it doesn’t have the lime flavor. The next time you want to try a new drink, try this one. You can also get a virgin version as well. - - - - - - - - - - - Thanks Tevaughn for introducing me to this delicious drink! Cheers! #SeaGardenBeachResort #VisitJamaica #LiveLearnTravelInspire #KizzyKingston #TravelWithKizzy https://www.instagram.com/p/BvSpjBohXF9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d2ofla0i55d2

F U N • W I T H • F I L T E R S Playing with filters and taking selfies as I wait to take off on this rainy Sunday in Atlanta. Captain: “Ladies and gentleman, good evening from the flight deck l, we are waiting for maintenance to ...” Me:”I’ll have a glass of whatever Red you have.” Takes selfies using #Snapchat filters. In my eyes Snapchat is still the reigning champion of filters. #SorryNotSorry I’ve had to work this weekend which is usually not required so I have earned an adult beverage and time away from my computer. . . . What are you doing on this rainy Sunday? . . . . #KizzyKingston #TravelwithKizzy #LiveLearnTravelInspire (at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport) https://www.instagram.com/p/Buj1MCnBzMA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19drw0om9ftsz

I saw this street art on a wall a few years ago when I was in Paris, somewhere near Montmartre, I think. This image embodies what makes a lot of people gravitate towards her - the smile, the joy, being a little different, the love and love of self. At first I was surprised to see this image of Mo’Nique across the ocean. Then I thought about all the things she has overcome and all that she has accomplished. She is an inspiration for following your passion and for preserving. . . Since coming on the scene, Mo’Nique has and will always be a force, a presence in comedy and entertainment. She’s made headlines and received several awards. #Oscars Now, she’s hitting another milestone and making history at the same time as she will be the 1st African American comedienne to have a residency in Las Vegas. Her show #MoNiqueDoesVegas kicks off tonight January 11, 2019 at the SLS Hotel. . .

I L O V E G U AD E L O U P E I love this beautiful island, shaped like a butterfly and full of history, culture, and interesting people. From mountains and volcanoes to mangroves to beautiful beaches, Guadeloupe you are magnificent. . . . Oh don’t mind me, I’m just taking a break from being a beach bum to take a pic with some street art. . . . #KizzyKingston #LiveLearnTravelInspire #TravelwithKizzy (at Sainte-Anne, Guadeloupe) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br-aPELlZHI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=yk0lk9f03309

G O O D V I B E S O N L Y . . . Each day of my time here in #Guadeloupe has been filled with a few rain showers, but I’m making the most of the time when the sun shines bright. Getting a chance to see double rainbows is pretty awesome as well. . . . I hope you have focused on the good vibes only today, no matter what the day has thrown at you. . . . #KizzyKingston #LiveLearnTravelInspire #TravelwithKizzy (at Guadeloupe) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br8oWiqFX64/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=v0wvvdm2flzl

T R E A T Y O ‘ S E L F Starting my day with a sweet treat from #Yoplait that we don’t have in the States. It’s called #YOP. It’s like a milky yogurt drink. I think it might really be for kids but hey, I’m a kid at heart. 😋 Yum! . . . Do you start your morning off with something sweet or savory? . #KizzyKingston #LiveLearnTravelInspire #TravelwithKizzy (at Gros Cap, Guadeloupe) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br5F0nll3-s/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m1wtswpeh0to

R E L A X A T I O N & R E J U V E N A T I ON ✨ Sunday’s are for relaxation, rejuvenation, and the Atlanta Falcon’s nation. . Sunday is the day I relax and reset for the week ahead. It’s the day I watch and cheer on the Falcons. It’s the day that I spend with and checking on family. It’s the day that I practice self care and make sure that my mind, body, and spirit are in alignment for whatever I have to tackle next. . Sunday, like everyday that I wake up, I practice gratitude. I thank God for the people in my life that make it worth living, the experiences that make it more fulfilling, and the things that make my life comfortable. . I am grateful for my loving family. I am also grateful for being able to live in a dynamic city that is lively, growing, and full of boss women who look like me. . If you get the chance to travel for self care and relaxation, visit Calistoga Spa Hot Springs in the Napa Valley, have a volcanic ash mud bath, and take a dip in the geothermal mineral pools. It’s amazing! (at Calistoga Spa Hot Springs) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoFM8kZjJ00/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jh5jzxmigowv

L A H A B A N A V I E J A Traveling to Cuba was NOT cheap, but I definitely left feeling richer. . . . I wasn’t sure what to expect when visiting Cuba other than classic American cars from the 1950s. What I found were kind and loving people who wanted to help make my first experience of the island a memorable one. While the Cuban people are rich in spirit and culture, they are poor so they work hard and they hustle. Although life isn’t easy the people are open and welcoming. . . . I’ve always heard of Havana. Hey, there’s even a popular song that references it. Havana ooh na na. But, there are so many other interesting cities that are beautiful and full of history. I was able to visit Havana and Trinidad. Next visit I’ll explore Santiago de Cuba. #bucketlist . . . #KizzyKingston #LiveLearnTravelInspire #TravelwithKizzy #Cuba (at La Habana Vieja)
