Mama Ibeji*

Even though it sounds cheesy, the trip was really all about family for me. I wasn’t expecting a wild, excitement-at-every-turn time and I didn’t get that. What I got was lots of laughter and good memories that will remain with me for a long time. With the exception of

To be worthy of a love like this

I know I’m taking forever to start writing about the trip. It’s just that the entries will be so much sweeter with pictures, and there were so many pictures to sift through that I’m overwhelmed. We snapped just less than 2100 pictures (insanity!) and we’re working on whittling that

The loot

Thank you for the welcome! It’s good to be back (although I won’t lie: I miss my family and the warm weather). I seriously don’t know where to start with recounting my trip. While I was away, I had a notebook where I jotted down things I wanted to

Why so quiet?

Nigerian clothing

One of the many things I’m looking forward to coming back to Canada with is Nigerian (some call it “traditional”) clothing. I do own a few pieces of Nigerian clothing, but I have refused to wear them out because they are ill fitting and worse, they make me look

Memories of Nigeria: my father’s parents and their home

My memories of Nigeria from when I lived there (between the ages of nearly three and six) are pretty dim, but a few things come to mind, and I will be sharing them over the next while. I’m not sure if it’ll be once a week or more often,

Water under the bridge

**Entry reposted because my comments were busted** Dear Nigeria HC, I haven’t been easy on you. I criticized the way you run things, especially since it led to me having to go back and forth a few times. I thought your receptionist could use more training, and had some
