A Black British Girl's Perspective of a Global Village
I'm starting an exciting new venture which will take me around the world... This time through the perspective of a curious 6 year old girl! After 3yrs of procrastinating (when I finish uni, when I get paid, when I get that job - all the when's that came and went!) I'm proud to introduce to... Continue Reading →
There are two things I couldn't leave the UK without doing - getting my mum's blessing (I love it when her eyes light up when I share another travel project with her!), and voting. Yesterday I did both - my journey to Uganda can officially begin! It's been a while since I updated my blog... Continue Reading →
It's interesting that when I was introduced to Andy Ayo Akinwolere just a couple of weeks ago at the Children of the Gap exhibition launch, my initial star-struck coyness was soon put to bay when we shared our mutual love for travelling... So without further hesitation, I invited Andy to be part of a panel discussion I'm... Continue Reading →

"Let's do Lunch: An Urban Girl's Guide To Making Contacts - And Keeping Them!"

Dia da Consciência Negra... Black Consciousness Day, Brazil It might seem ironic that there should be a day dedicated to black consciousness in Brazil; a country with its history steep in the trans-atlantic slavery between 1594 to 1888 (the last country in the western hemisphere to abolish slavery). The seed of 'black origin' flourishes in... Continue Reading →
When I met Dionisis Kostakis on my second day in Rio de Janeiro in December last year, there was little about him, if nothing at all, that indicated his unusual hobby.
