Wild for Wild Gecko

October 22, 2018 by Nimi

During my years in Ghana, Wild Gecko was one of my favourite African arts and handcrafts shops. I used to go there at least once a month to buy jewellery for myself and gifts for friends abroad. Last week I was in Accra, my first time back in four years. Visiting Wild Gecko was like stepping …

The Pursuit of Happy, Healthy Hair

October 8, 2018October 9, 2018 by Nimi

It’s been a long time since I last blogged. I really need to stop life taking over and putting what I love on the back burner. But here I am again, and today I’m going through the hair products I discovered in 2018 and why I love them so much.   I’ve been hearing a …

A Night at Abney Park – Grimm’s Fairy Tales

July 24, 2017July 25, 2017 by Nimi

A few years ago, I saw and participated in my first interactive theatre experience – Alice Adventure’s Underground. It was such a mind-blowing event for me that I still want to revisit the play. With that in mind, a few days ago, I joined my sister and cousins at Abney Park, and together, we stepped …

Chocolate Treats from Hotel Chocolat

June 27, 2017 by Nimi

Confessions of a Chocoholic Hi. I’m Nimi and I’m a chocoholic. It feels good to finally get that off my chest as I’ve been in denial pretty much my whole life. I’ve unsuccessfully attempted to hide my love for chocolate ever since I was a child. So far, the only person I’m fooling is myself. …

June 15, 2017June 20, 2017 by Nimi

As more and more of my friends and family are becoming intrepid explorers, I’m spending more time thinking about great gift ideas for travellers in general, especially when birthdays and holidays arise. I like to think of gifts that are both practical and fun, items that they will enjoy using and ones that are easy …

Anais Anais L’Original – Timeless Sophistication You Need to Try

June 7, 2017June 8, 2017 by Nimi

When I think of Anais Anais L’Original, two people come to mind. My mother, whom I distinctly recall had the bottle amidst her vast perfume collection, and, my younger cousin AP, who has turned it into her signature scent. Truthfully, I have always considered the perfume to be more of a mature woman’s fragrance, which …

K1, P2 – Knitting as a Hobby

June 4, 2017June 7, 2017 by Nimi

I recently rekindled an old passion, knitting as a hobby. My nan was a fantastic knitter, and my mother, whilst I don’t think she’s knitted or crocheted for many years, was decent at both. I must have been about 10 when I first tried my hand at knitting. My mother taught me the two basic …

Gift Ideas for Father’s Day

May 29, 2017June 8, 2017 by Nimi

It’s just around the corner, and you might be hard pressed for time and gift ideas for Father’s Day. Well, that’s if you’re anything like me. I always leave gift shopping for any occasion to the last minute, which usually stresses me out. Despite promising myself never to wait until the last minute, the vicious …

Two Days Out in Somerset

May 23, 2017June 18, 2017 by Nimi

The UK is full of beautiful places to explore. I’m rapidly learning and realising that I have really taken this country for granted all my life. To be fair, I have lived abroad in Ghana and Dubai, so please cut me some slack. Last year, I spent a few days out in Somerset and fell …

My Three-Day Trip to Sweden

May 17, 2017June 18, 2017 by Nimi

I love to travel, and yet, I don’t do it as often as I would like. Last year, I managed to get a few trips under my belt, including a three-day trip to Sweden in July. My travels took me to  Stockholm, and it was my first time in this beautiful city. Whilst my trip …
