Hello darling, I’m Jirah Nicole!
A wanna-be island girl with a love of Old Hollywood inspiring you to do, see, and be more across Latin America and the Caribbean. Because travel looks good on you.
Love the beaches of the Caribbean, the festivals of Latin America, and the glamour of Old Hollywood? So do I. Around here, we celebrate the culture, stories, and beauty of Latin America and the Caribbean. One day, you might be reading about the Rat Pack — and the next? Dancing through the streets of Rio during Carnival. At Jirah Nicole TV, we float between islands and eras — but at the heart of it all is a love for travel that’s bold, glamorous, and full of technicolor.
Before I ever fell for a boy, I fell for the Caribbean.
Do you remember your first love? I do — and before I ever fell for a boy, I fell for the Caribbean. Now, I’m a writer who won’t shut up about it. I’m Jirah Nicole — the face, voice, and creator behind Jirah Nicole TV, a travel lifestyle brand that blends my love for Latin American and Caribbean destinations with my obsession for all things vintage and Old Hollywood. My mission is to inspire you to do, see, and be more through the lens of travel — because travel looks good on you.
Inspiring you to do, see, and be more through the lens of travel.
I’m a self-proclaimed “wanna-be island girl” with a deep love for Latin American and Caribbean cultures, and I’m passionate about helping travelers move beyond the typical tourist lens to fully immerse themselves in the local life, culture, and hidden gems each destination has to offer. When I’m not exploring the Caribbean or Latin America, you’ll find me “time traveling” through different eras — I’m endlessly inspired by retro places and the glamour of Old Hollywood. I’m so happy you’re here — and I can’t wait to inspire you to do, see, and be more in Latin America and the Caribbean.
