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 …

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 …

“Spring Fling” – A Night of Speed Dating at The Anthologist

May 11, 2016June 18, 2017 by Nimi

I’ve been quiet I know; it’s been very busy for me the last couple of weeks. My first blog is late in the week I know, but I have a post to share written by my cousin, AP. A few weeks ago, she tried, rather unsuccessfully to rope me into a night of speed dating. …

Thames Clippers Boat Ride Through London

April 25, 2016May 28, 2017 by Nimi

My friend D. Alves is full of bright ideas. Together, we have undertaken to explore London, even though he has lived here for most of his life, there’s still a lot even he hasn’t seen. He recently suggested that we take a Thames Clipper from South Bank to Greenwich. I’ve never taken a boat ride …

An Art Exhibit at October Gallery, London

April 12, 2016May 28, 2017 by Nimi

I can’t imagine what a world without art would be like. Drab? Abysmal? Dead? A dark void? The great thing about being back in the UK is that I have more than enough time to explore London’s art scene – and there’s so much to choose from. Last week, my sister and I were invited …

Time Out Gotham v Time Out Metropolis

April 6, 2016April 6, 2016 by Nimi

My sister’s 12-year-old godson recently spent a few days in the UK. His trip, his first to England, included sightseeing around London, taking in Changing the Guard at Buckingham Palace (that was a first for me too actually), and, because he’s a young boy, spending a lot of time at comic bookshops around the West End. Apparently …

Affordable Vintage Fair and V&A Childhood Museum at Bethnal Green

April 5, 2016April 5, 2016 by Nimi

So, this weekend was a busy one, with me traipsing all over the capital. I even ventured into East London, a place I tend to have really bad experiences with and generally avoid like the plague. And, in keeping with tradition, my visit to both the Vintage Fair and the V&A Childhood Museum at Bethnal Green …
