I had the pleasure of returning back to Nigeria to celebrate my Grandmother’s 90th birthday! And as I was there and traveling about, I figured I should put together a quick blog post of all that I experienced out there. Let me just say- Nigeria has leveled up in many areas, and if it’s not…
Nike Art Gallery Lekki Phase 1 Lagos, Nigeria
This is a long overdue due, but much needed blog. Back in June 2018, I went to Nigeria, and had the opportunity to visit the Nike Art Gallery. I found out about the Art Gallery from Instagram and knew that I had to make my way there. I even brought my parents and aunt with…

Blue Ridge Vineyard & Winery
I recently took a trip to Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania (in the Poconos area) with some of my family. It was a quick getaway; something my parents are trying to keep as an annual tradition. We stayed in their Timeshare at Split Rock- Willowbrook Resort. Prior to coming, I started looking into different things we…

The entrance fee is 1000 Naira which is equivalent to about $2.79 (from everything I experienced on this tour, I think the entrance…
Montserrat Monastery Day trip
Prior going to Spain I looked for other places we can go to outside of Barcelona; pretty much wanting to get as much out of this trip as possible. There were so many options: a day trip to Madrid, a full day trip to France, etc; but because this was a trip with my mom…
San Juan (Post Hurricane Maria)
Last weekend I had the chance to spend my birthday in San Juan, Puerto Rico. When I first told a few people that was where I was going, they all had the same questions: “ Is it back to Normal?”, “Are you sure you want to go there after everything that happened?”. I am someone…

If you know me, than you know my love for champa….I mean brunch! There is just something about breakfast/lunch food with champagne that I love.
