You’ve helped me define my niche as an aggregator of information, and after this year I feel even more confident in my voice.

Whether you’re a seasoned local or first-time visitor, these rules are helpful to finally have in one place:
I surprised myself with how early I decided to publish this one this year, but you clearly loved it! Noted:
What a privilege to celebrate all of the brave entrepreneurs, and I’m glad this annual post saw so many views:
I intended this guide to be a support to first-time visitors, but I found myself referring back to it for so many reasons. The activities are great for any group:

I loved the opportunity to try a new style of article with this one! I learned so much about island happenings and tried to break it down for beginners:
💭 Personal Reflections on 2024:
This year I stayed focused on keeping the main thing the main thing — high quality local guides in your inbox twice a week. Writing the newsletter, finding resource gaps and filling them - is by far the most important component of MVacay. I still do my best to post cute reels, make handy infographics, update our apps - but it all comes second to churning out timely information for you.
I also stayed true to my mission of primarily supporting diverse, new-to-MV and sole proprietor businesses. I love to be a support and a cheerleader for these and I’m proud to rally around such a wonderful group of entrepreneurs.
Thank you for being here with me while I grow - and for forgiving the occasional typos 😊
