The city was exactly how I remembered it, vibrant, busy and even with the same faint melodies of street musicians playing near the tube stations. Even the pigeons are still everywhere. Hearing ‘I’m sorry, you alright, darling?’ or ‘Here you go, love,’ from locals or the baristas who prepare my coffee felt like I was ∞

Evolution of self
This week, I came across a line in an article that read “Long-extinct animals like dinosaurs could be resurrected as robots to shed light on evolution.” This paints a vivid picture of mechanical dinosaurs roaming our world. However, all this made think of how much one person is able to evolve. Evolving in character, learning ∞
Unplanned joy
The other day, I decided to visit a beautiful plant garden to immerse myself in nature. However, I stumbled upon a breathtaking palace. The grandeur of its architecture, the serene gardens, and the sense of history captivated me. Exploring its halls and gardens was a spontaneous delight that filled me with awe and wonder. It ∞
Strength in Unity
In high school I got to travel out of London for the first time and discover other somali communities. I traveled to the USA to meet my mum and become part of her community, which comprised of some of the most hardworking and welcoming people I’ve ever met. Authentic Somali food is healthy and nutrient ∞
World Cup 2022
If we were all alike, then this world would be a dull place. I love that we have differences in culture. Qatar show casing it’s rich history and vibrant culture in the Worldcup caught my attention.

I hiked back to back, in these dreamy places. On Saturday I had a tour at Lake Elementaita. We sailed on ∞
Fleeting moments
You ever get taken back from a shockingly amazing experience? I felt this way the moment I dived into this river inside the cave. It was simply luxurious to me. Daraca Ya Ngai (God’s Bridge) was named after a contractor hired a man to construct a bridge across the Nyamindi river in Kirinyaga County at ∞
Kereita Forest
I’m always up for a new adventure. It’s the adrenaline rush for me. At some point fear kicks in, especially when it has something to do with heights. Recently I accepted to go zip lining tour at Kereita Forest organized by our gym Fitness Empire. Just the mere thought of zip lining on East Africa’s ∞
