I have this constant urge to travel and meet foreign souls whilst doing what I do best. 

Each country that I've visited this year has been a long haul stay with family and friends and as well as exploring these beautiful places, I have been working; doing what I love and exerting more of my talent. How frickin amazing does that sound?! 

The fact that I think of ideas and bring them to life in a completely different environment with different dialects, norms, beliefs, and ways of living..

I'm not going to stop travelling. The fact that I am able to combine it with my passions is truly a blessing in itself.

New York, Ghana and Nigeria were country visits of 2014 with such awesome memories made as well as for work purposes. Who knows what 2015 will hold..perhaps a mixture of just leisurable and work related trips...time will tell!

I guess when I'm in that setting I somehow know whether it's worth documenting or not..usually I plan before going and sometimes even on the flight en route! So we shall see. 

Two gorgeous getaways booked for 2015 and plenty more to come! As well as my documentary made in Nigeria coming out in the new year! Live life!

Greatness. 

People who make you feel great. People who are great. People that make you want to be great. 

I began surrounding myself with these people probably from about the age of 18, when realising that in order to follow through with my desired career path, I'm going to connect with a lot of people along the way. 

However, the kind of people you surround yourself with has a lot to say about you. 

I can honestly say that the past three months of my life have probably been the most life-changing. I've met and connected with such aspirational, hard-working, driven individuals. Whether that be celebrities, presenters, producers, writers, or genuine good-hearted people. 

Meeting these people and connecting with them also plays as a helpful self reminder and lets me know where my life is heading if I continue to put God first, so He can bring the right people into my life. 

Don't get me wrong, you don't HAVE to be best buddies with everyone you meet, it's about the personality that you give off when you meet someone, and knowing that there shouldn't be a reason as to why they should speak hastily of you behind your back. 

Working in the public sector and meeting all sorts of personalities and characters from different ages/backgrounds/walks of life is teaching me so much; it's mind blowing!

My growth and gratefulness seeps more and more into my spirit as I always thank God for two main things:

1) Where He has (and will) put me 

2) Who is (and isn't) in my life

Honestly, surround yourself with greatness, and you shall become one! So blessed to be surrounded by good-hearted people that constantly make me want to be and do better 

Thank you for reading x
