Winter Sun: Five Days in Spain

It’s December 2024, and London is cold, muggy, and dark. School has called it quits for Christmas break, and you’re feeling the impact of Vitamin D deficiency. What’s the best cure? Winter Sun, and instead of breaking the bank to fly home, I decided to take a trip to Barcelona!

Study Break: Three Days in Budapest

It’s November 2024, and LSE has given me a week off school to ‘Read’. What do I decide to do? Pack a backpack and book a cheap round-trip ticket to a European country. I board a flight to Hungary and try to pack the world of sightseeing into 72 hours with 4 of my friends. We packed a million things into three days, and this is my attempt to pack those three days into one post and share it with you all almost a year later.

A Day at Sanchi

My first detailed post from my trip to India is reserved for my favourite outing… a visit to Sanchi, a World Heritage Site. The only other Heritage sites I had been to are ones in London and our very own Nelson’s Dockyard in Antigua.

The City of Lakes

Bhopal is a beautiful city with amazing scenery and is said to be one of India’s greenest cities. Bhopal is also home to 10 lakes and is aptly tagged as “The City of Lakes”. In this post, I’ll recap with words and images my picture perfect day trip to Bhopal’s Upper Lake.

Two Weeks in India

Back in 2022, I secured an amazing Scholarship opportunity from the Indian Government to spend two weeks in the country learning about Women Empowerment, Policy and Vocational Training. I had the most amazing time and met amazing women who I still keep in touch with to this day. This post is an introduction, obviously, but over a series of post I will be unpacking how I spent my life changing two weeks in India

Despondency

Sometimes... Things happen which make you re-evaluate your entire life story. The circumstances that contributed to my feelings of despondency is one of those things.

Big Hair, Don't Care!

It's getting really close to that 2 year bench mark. That's right. I went natural almost two years ago and I think I've come pretty far. My Hair has grown considerably, and with it so have I.

Happy Trails

I've taken it upon myself to take my fitness level into my own hands. Even though I'm slim, I didn't wasn't as active as i could have been. So I've started the gym and have begun hiking consistently and the places I find are definetly worth the sore muscles
