--- GTBANK FOOD AND DRINK FAIR ...Pt 2 --- Who says Nigerian youths are lazy? 🙄 Think again! Spend two days at the #GTBankFoodDrink and you would marvel at how many young Nigerians are stepping out of the status quo to create sustainable livelihood for themselves and people around them. I am still in awe of all the incredible products that I have seen, stories I heard and food I ate 😉 these few days. It is amazing how creative and productive we can really get when we "choose" to unleash the power of our imagination. Within us lies the potential to do great things; it is our responsibility, however, to look within and let our light shine. At this wonderful event, I have met with people with so much passion, ideas and ingenuity that is needed to change our world. The height of it all was my participation at the Cooking Masterclass with the incredible Scott Wintson on "Support & Advice for Small Food Businesses"... Once again, thank you @GTBank for organizing such a wonderful event; Yes, we are Proudly African; Truly International... Next post will be about my visit to the acclaimed Nike Arts Gallery🖌🖌🖌 Yaaaaaaaaaaay!

--- END SLAVERY IN ALL ITS FORMS --- After all that I have seen, heard and shared based on my visit to Badagry, Elmina, Cape Coast, Axim, Lome and Cotonou this past few weeks, I and the rest of my team @TourMyAfrica hereby join our voices with that of many other people all over the world to ask that we #EndSlavery in all its forms. Though, as Africans (and Africans in diaspora), we come from a rough background and have experienced tough times, we must make a conscious decision to STAND UP. We must stop sitting and brooding over this horrible past. Else we, by ourselves, put ourselves in chains. We must rise, beyond resentment, anger and bigotry, to create new futures. Our wings may have been broken; our lips sunken but we need to rise beyond all forms of limitations, gather our momentum and fly. Ladies and gents of all ages, it is time to let the bird fly free. It is time to start living together as brothers and sisters; one family. It is time to put an end to slavery in all its forms. @humanthread @alohalife72 @lisakristinephotography @marloucornelissen @worldmeritorg @worldmeritng @tourmyafrica @aoafricaorg @frikanahtc , We are in it together!

--- NIKE ARTS GALLERY, LEKKI, LAGOS --- There is hardly a tourist who has been to or heard of Nigeria who does not know the popular Nike Arts Gallery, Lagos. Undoubtedly, this gallery is home to some of the most adorable works of art in the world. I and @aqbhectic had time to savour the very well coordinated colours, new and unique styles and the hidden meanings of these works. As a nomad, I have always looked forward to coming to this gallery and when this finally happened, I was not disappointed at all. In fact, I am still in awe of this home of African arts. Each of the four floors of the gallery showcases the creativity of Nigerian artists both male and female; young and old. My favourites works were the new sculptures made with fibre glass and some highly detailed paintings with several hidden characters. I spent a long time discussing with Mama Nike herself and her husband who were both really impressed by our work in @AOAfricaOrg, @FrikanahTC and @TourMyAfrica. Thank you so much for preserving and projecting our culture. I am very sure that I will not recover from this experience in a while.

Day2 on the beautiful island of Tarkwa Bay. A full day already completed with loads of precious memories, a peaceful night and a lovely morning to kick off another day. I am sure the fun is just getting started. Can wait to get back on the beach, play some games and spend more time with incredible couchsurfers and nomads. Travelling is indeed interesting and life is good... #Live And you should watch out for my food posts 👌👌👌 @TourMyAfrica @FunCircle @Couchsurfing @TarkwaBay #TeamTMA #TarkwaBay #TourTarkwa #Tourism #Travel #Backpacking #Nomad #Backpacker #TravelBlogger #Foodie #FoodLover #FunLover #Nature #Beach #Volunteer #Freshness #Enjoy #IYSTD2017 #IY2017
