Surrounded by jungle. There are some good resources there but ultimately you need calendar. You should be focusing on the resources you can improve. You can only farm the banana.
Cottaging plains tiles again? You built 5-6 cottages on these tiles and are using none! Focus on your biggest food resources which currently are the 2 pigs tiles covered in jungle. Then think about grassland river tiles for cottages. Building cottages before improving the pigs was a mistake.
Fish/clams site looks good. Long term you want the dye secured but right now it's a dead end city as you can't improve the dye or bananas to max use. Definitely capture barb city and settle next to it for dye at some point later.
I would of rushed the Greeks here. Way too much work to clear all this Junge and he has some nice land. If Greeks have no metal spam swords and take them down. CR1/2 swords should be good. HA will take too long now. Plus you need the capture gold for science.
Great spys are only good if you have something to steal. Right now these AI are not teching quickly. I sometimes might use them to scout or for golden ages. Not like +100% EP will do much right now and knowing your games you might have quit before jails arrive.
I would only build 1 more settler and maybe get some roads to Greek before you declare.
You really got to stop and think what you are actually doing at times. I see no real plan here hence why you struggle on games.
