One blog post at a time.

You will be tempted to lie. You will be tempted to cheat. You will be tempted to boast. You will be tempted to compare.

One day, you will look back at the present and the tears…

Last night, I let every emotion I’ve ever felt for you out. The pain. The love.

If we were having tea, I’d squeal with joy to be next to you.

I’m Mariam — writer, explorer, observer of life’s quiet and loud moments. I started this blog in March 2017 as a self-discovery space, and over the past eight years, it has grown into a home for everything that moves me and hopefully, something that moves you too. Here, you will find poetry, reflections, travel stories, lifestyle pieces, motivation, inspiration and Lagos restaurant reviews all written with honesty and heart. Enjoy!
