One blog post at a time.

To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, refinement rather than fashion.

You are beautiful. Your face is beautiful. Your smile is beautiful. Your body is beautiful.

It’s exciting. It’s riveting. It’s compelling. It’s overpowering.

The job. The house. The car.

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!
