A little about me?
Absolutely! With pleasure :-)
My name is Wellesley Gayle and I am the founder and CEO of this unique Jamaican website, www.my-island-jamaica.com.
Yes, I am Jamaican, and from JAMAICA - born and raised in Westmoreland but migrated to St. James.
And yes, I currently reside here in Montego Bay - in a residential community called Bogue with my family.
New! Take a piece of Jamaica with you๐!
Savour the memories! Now you can get your authentic Jamaican souvenir items, as well as traditional Jamaican herbs, spices and housewares on our popular e-store. Click Here to learn more.
And, if you ever need a trustworthy and knowledgeable local guide, consider booking a private tour with us!
I have lived in Jamaica all my life. If I am not here it is only for a short while, for business or vacation.
New! For authentic Jamaican products from my own hands, visit my Etsy store here :-)
With a Bachelors Degree in Business Studies at Northern Caribbean University (NCU) , a Masters Degree in Finance and Management at Bradford University (UK), a Diploma in Software Engineering at CIT (now HCIT), a commissioned Justice Of The Peace for the island of Jamaica, a lifetime of community leadership roles, several other personal development and professional accreditation, coupled with my over 20 plus multi-industry years of leadership experience, I've been afforded the awesome opportunity to positively impact persons in ways I would have never imagined growing up as a country boy.
But, to be brutally honest with you. I also love my country, I really do.
There is oh so much about this blessed little rock that astounds me everyday:
And so, with my native and in-depth knowledge of Jamaica, along with ongoing professional industry certification (See Team Jamaica Certificate below), I created this website to share what I call... the uniqueness of Jamaica with the world.
I've also written quite a few sought after books and publications related to my country...
You can learn more about each of them (or get your copy) right here.
Today, the website continues to, not only serve several hundred thousands of persons in their information serch per month, we are also in the top 1% of all websites online!
How So?
At January 2024, Netcraft.com indicates that they explore 1.109 billion websites of which 201,000,000 (201 million) are active.
But even with just the active sites, with a SimilarWeb.com (Alexa.com) ranking of under 1,000,000 (actually 456,209 at January 2024), this website is easily in the top 1% (at 0.2%) astounding!
New! I'm now inviting qualified candidates to partner with us and benefit from the impressive traffic on this website.

I however, sincerely owe a lot to a company called SBI.
They gave me the inspiration and proved to me that I could do it - I could take this passion for my country and create a successful website.
I never hesitate to share this amazing story with my site visitors. In fact, I created a short report report that I shared exactly how I did it.
I am confident that you will find the information here very helpful in your research of our beautiful island.
And by the way, if there is anything you need my help with, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thanks again for your time and for visiting my site.
