Durga’s Den

Durga’s Den: Our Home Base

Throughout our time in Jamaica, Durga’s Den became our home base. We started and ended our trip at Durga’s and often spent class days there, even when we were sleeping elsewhere. Durga’s Den, named after one of the owners, Lise Alexander (or Mama Durga), is an Eco Farm Lodge, focused on agrotourism. Learn more are the Durga’s Den Website.

The gazebo was one of the main gathering spots where we ate meals, attended class, and played games.
