Mokko makes you feel secure at all times, you don’t question much, you just go and live Jamaica to the fullest. It does not matter where he takes you, you’ll know that nothing will happen if he is with you. He likes to smile and always finds a good way to communicate. You have tons fun and you also learn about the real Jamaica.
Mokko's family is really warm and friendly. You’ll feel at home as soon as you arrive. He is a wonderful guide and a great chef, but most of all he is a great bush doctor. He healed our stomach ache in a second.
Mokko is open, simple, friendly, and also very observant. Sometimes he might be quiet and all the sudden he says something that will make you smile. His wonderful place is very clean and warm and so colourful, full of good vibes! We couldn’t ask for more.
We totally recommend his place to anyone who wants to know the real Jamaica. We could type for hours and hours, this experience was breathtaking, the best trip we’ve ever had and thanks to Mokko is unforgettable! We will visit him and his family again and again!
With Dread Talk, Velma Pollard has done a remarkable job of both describing the language of Rastafarians, highlighting its growth from and influence upon Standard Jamaican English and Jamaican Patois, and explaining the cultural and philosophical rationale behind the language.
