One blog post at a time.

I don’t need to listen to another love song

It was a good day though everything didn’t go according to plan

Dear Future Husband, I waited for you for so long and during all that time

I travelled to Senegal recently. It wasn’t a country on my travel bucket list, and the trip wasn’t planned.

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!
