Meet the Pioneers on Pagan, N. Mariana Islands
33 years after the original residents were evacuated when the volcano erupted in 1981, these five adventurous and committed young people have given up their previous lives to resettle the island and return to their ancestors' way of life close to the land. However, the US military has developed plans to bomb this pristine island as part of war games and training. Pagan is not uninhabited. There are people on Pagan. This is the story of those people....the Pioneers on Pagan.

THE PARABLE:
Once upon a time, there was a Jamaican civil engineer living in New York City who hated his job. He followed his passion, started a sideline business, quit his job, escaped the rat race, ran off to a tropical island in the Pacific, and started a tourism business so he could give tours of the island to pretty girls every day! He now lives a nomadpreneur's dream life, while helping others do the same! Read more and download Jamaican on Saipan at: Learn more about Walt's tours at:

My Adventure to Pagan!
On April 7, 2014, I helped arrange a trip to Pagan for a scientific research group. I was fortunate enough to be able to tag along and ended up spending a few days on the pristine Northern Mariana island of Pagan. Here are some previously unreleased video clips from my once-in-a-lifetime adventure! Also, check out the 150-photo slideshow at F.J. Goodridge

Tour of Tinian Island
Just going around and taking a look at some of the sights on Tinian, of the Northern Mariana Islands. This was actually in July 2021. The Marianas are an interesting United States outpost with lots of WWII history.
Saipan of the Northern Mariana Islands: Part of the USA Most Americans Aren't Aware of
Went to Saipan for 4 days this past Memorial Weekend. It's the island that saw a lot of action during WWII between the Japanese and Americans. It was interesting to see the remaining weaponry, tanks, and buildings strewn all over the island of that time, particularly, unprotected.

Saipan History Series 1
This is the first Video in a Series of History Videos I am putting together about the History of Saipan, and a few interesting things along the way. This is not a hyper detailed documentary of the History of Saipan, it is just me showing a few little parts of History that I find Interesting. In This Video I check out the Old Japanese Fishing Dock, the German Garapan Dock, the Bell Tower, a Japanese Bunker, the Sugar Cane Train, and a Couple old Japanese Temples, and a neat little History Trail that runs through the Jungle near the History Center. Enjoy. :D

He now lives a nomadpreneur's dream life, while helping others do the same! Read more and download Jamaican on Saipan at: Learn more about my tours at: | TripAdvisor: | My CV:
