[TRAVELS IN REVIEW] ᴊᴀɴᴜᴀʀʏ ᴡᴀs ᴍʏ ᴍᴏɴᴛʜ Fᴏʀ ᴅʀᴇᴀᴍɪɴɢ. This time last year I was preparing for an adventure of a lifetime around Ecuador, Peru & Bolivia & this was one of the beautiful sights I got to gaze upon - the beautiful mountains of Misti & Chachani in Peru 😍. . Up on the blog (#linkinbio) I reflect on my 2019 travels, give you a round up of where I went and explain how January is my chill month of thinking about 2020 rather than rushing to have all my goals pre-aligned. I use this time to decide about my travels for this year. . I recently attended a vision board party with @melanintravel_ where you reflect & plan your goals of 2020. I overheard one person say of course ‘Travel More’ & when I did, there was a disconnect to me, which I thought was super odd, given thats a thing I love! But as I find my way on my blog its the adventure that I crave and its not necessarily defined by the ‘always travelling’ train. So yea, I’m reviewing super late but thats fine ‘cos such roundups always leave me smiling at all those ‘moments’ of 2019. . How will your travels of last year shape your 2020 travels? . . #the5to9traveller #travelroundup #newyearnewgoals #whatsyourtravelstory #arequipa

I could leave a long, lengthy caption but girl is tired... . I had a year that was beautifully unexpected in so many ways. I have no idea what 2020 holds but I’ve come to realise sometimes that is the beauty of life...not knowing. Have a truly lovely celebration into 2020! #the5to9traveller #topnine

‘𝕮𝖍𝖗𝖎𝖘𝖙 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝕾𝖆𝖛𝖎𝖔𝖚𝖗 𝖜𝖆𝖘 𝖇𝖔𝖗𝖓’ . . In travel, I always need to catch myself to take in the moments. . This Sunday at church saw me take a moment to really listen to the lyrics of this carol as so beautifully sung by @official_mateus . To take in the moment of the reason for Christmas and to learn about the meaning of Christmas cheer from a Christian perspective . And just as this song touched me and made me pause, I hope over Christmas you get time to take in the moments with family and friends. . Merry Christmas to you all!x #mymoments #silentnight #christmascarols

[NEW BLOG POST] . We are often looking for where home is; what’s our next step in life? . What if you’ve defined what home is to you but its always being questioned because of the colour of your skin? Up on the blog (link in bio) I share my migration story and what I have felt growing up British Nigerian. I would love to hear (if you have one) your migration story and where home is to you. Let me know in the comments or on my blog. #mymigrationstory #the5to9traveller

ᴄʜᴀʟʟᴇɴɢᴇ ʏᴏᴜʀsᴇʟf! Not all challenges you take on have to be global. . So I hate long distance running. When people have asked me to run a 5K I’m like 😳 nope! I used to run cross country competitively as a teen but stopped when a PE teacher thoroughly berated me for placing poorly in my time as I had stopped to help a friend having an asthma attack on the road. I decided I wanted no part in this anymore if winning placed higher than health and I have not run since until.... . This charity #SantaFunRun to raise money for @farleighhospice who do amazing work looking after people with life limiting illnesses. I figured how can I challenge myself to run? By dressing up as Santa of course! . And I did it without stopping! Me, who has not run except for perhaps a bus since my teens! Its never too late to pick up old things and I’m happy this was for a worthy cause. You can still donate...link is in my bio. #the5to9traveller #FarleighSantas #newchallenges . P.s. thanks to the parentals for cheering me on!

[NEW BLOG POST] Girl on an Adventure in the beautiful Peruvian Andes of the Vilcabamba mountain range enroute to the famous Machu Picchu 😍 . . Travelling for me is a collection of interactions, memories and learning about the world around me. As a child I was an avid reader of The Famous Five by Enid Blyton, who were always exploring and I was always on the hunt to find something new on the estate I grew up in. . . Fast forward a few decades later and I still have that explorer buzz but its gone global through my travels. . ‘Travel is an avenue of your passion’ - find out what mine is on my blog, (if you haven’t already guessed) . . So what’s your passion? Let me know below in the comments👇🏾 #the5to9traveller #girlonanadventure #adventureismysidehustle
