“There’s only so much fun you can have in Lagos”. If you’ve ever used that line before, I’m here to convince you otherwise. I’ve never been the type for club raves or weekend owambes. My event hopping and Lagos social life phase ended a while back. Now, I’m more content spending my weekends brunching with friends
Sunday Brunch at Ofada Boy Restaurant. It’s not often I find a restaurant in surulere that ticks all my boxes – perfect aesthetic, budget friendly food and low-key enough to have a good time without worrying about bumping into anyone that knows me. Actually it’s a rarity. If you live in surulere, you’ll agree with
Camping On The Beach In Lagos. When you live in a city like mine, one that is set up in a manner determined to raise your blood pressure a little higher everyday, you learn to unplug in whatever little ways you can. So when I found out about the Jaybee beach camp – A beach

Exploring the Epe Mangrove. I talked about it, tweeted about it and Insta-storied about it, eventually making plans to visit the Epe Mangrove with a few of my Instagram family. But somehow, every single time, things never seemed to go as planned. So much that I began to feel like a chronic disappointer. But after
An Evening Of Self Love. Yesterday, I was thinking of how time flies. You’re planning a project and freaking out about the big day but it comes and just like that, it’s over and filed away in your archives like you didn’t spend days quieting your anxieties over it. It’s amazing, isn’t it? This time
Exploring Fela’s shrine. I’m officially a walkabout. Lately, my default mood has been skewed towards “YOLO”. It’s still a bit weird to hear myself described as a “walkabout” but I guess it’s more truth than lie and I don’t fight it anymore. I’m not sure when this tilt happened because I used to be this
Here’s the thing – This post was meant to start differently. I had my solid intro pat down, complete with the jokes and a quick story to go. It was brilliant. But midway into writing this, I realized that I was jumbling way too many posts into this one post, and decided to break it
