Welcome to Day 10 of BLOGMAS!!! It’s truly the most wonderful time of the year. One of the things I have actually really loved experiencing this last year is Christmas markets, and I hope I get to experience even more, maybe even every year. There is just something so beautiful about everyone who is festive... Continue Reading →
We are about to get to the double digits of BLOGMAS days!! How fast? Thank you for still keeping up thus far. Onto today's post.... Have you ever been asked by someone what your talent is and thought you didn't have one? Or perhaps you hadn't figured it out. I may still not know how... Continue Reading →
Welcome to Day 7 of BLOGMAS! Thank you for still rocking me up to this point. On today's post, I will be getting a bit more personal and vulnerable... So, last year, I felt I got to that point in life where I was really struggling mentally. It's those things that are hard to explain,... Continue Reading →
We're at that time where people are starting to reflect on their habits throughout the year and possibly identify what to continue doing or change in the coming year. For those who may be thinking of reducing the time they spend on social media or looking to create more, here are some of the thoughts... Continue Reading →
Surprise 🎉
What would you do if you didn't feel cringe ?
It’s been a long year so why not take stock ?
A couple of months ago, I saw people doing this trend online, so here is my version. ('For dessert', because knowing me is knowing I have a sweet tooth, hence the title alteration). Career She was debating whether to drop out of University or not. Some of her relatives thought it would be better to... Continue Reading →
Femicide is the intentional killing of women due to their gender, often linked to prior intimate partner violence. In Kenya, 129 women were murdered in early 2025, highlighting an urgent crisis. The lack of legal recognition hampers action against these crimes. Advocates urge the government to classify femicide as a distinct crime for better accountability and protection of women's rights.
It’s been a long while since I was on this space and it does feel a little weird writing this out but this is a few hours after I’ve gotten an email showing me insights of the monthly insights for my blog. Just the fact that people somehow are able to access this page is... Continue Reading →
So maybe go back to those things that are still alive in you. The things that make your heart flutter with joy. The things that you felt you needed to tuck in far and deep ; hard to reach places.
While I absolutely love the holidays, it’s also the time I feel the impact of losing my loved ones the most. My sense of grief is heightened during this period as people retreat away from the city to be with their loved ones ; back home or on vacation. For a long time my greatest... Continue Reading →
The mind oh boy !

Maasai Mara So this was a trip organized by Intrepid. They’re a travel agency that I guess is trying to now lay its roots in Kenya. It was truly an experience ! Our main form of transport was the overland truck. We camped at two different sites - so yeah tents and all that stuff... Continue Reading →
What is real life ? “Social media is not real” “Remember to be happy in real life” You may have come across these terms. I have and they always get me thinking because sometimes I feel like it doesn’t make sense. I get that sometimes a lot of what is shared online can be edited... Continue Reading →
Hello there! As you have read from the title I will be letting you in some of the things that I have learnt about myself or really just confirmed you know? I experience things very deeply and often with intense emotion. This usually then takes me such a long time to process things - even... Continue Reading →
Never has navigating life been this difficult for me. I’ve been through it but I now want to enjoy these days where I smile a little again.
On today’s post I use a template and take stock! It’s honestly taken me a while to get this post done just because I really wanted to honestly think through some of the pointers. However, it’s all done now and I hope you enjoy reading through.
A little something something
Monday I posted this amazing photo that to be honest was taken waaay back. This information was not on the caption of course. I found some motivational quote online and pasted it. At least I gave credit though right ? Can’t forget to use those hashtags #mondaymotivation. Tuesday The grind never stops right? I’m so... Continue Reading →
Grief isn’t linear. Don’t expect it to be. Don’t demand it be.
A message to friends
We are almost coming to the end of what has been the worst year possible. Here is a little something that I hope encourages you to still keep pushing.
It’s been a while since I did a book review, so here’s one to end that hiatus. If you get a chance to read it, tell me how you like it (or not ?)
Starting anything has to be one of the hardest thing to do in my opinion. It is so easy to reach out for varied excuses not to start something. It has taken a while, but here I am, finally starting something I have been wanting to do for a while. More information on what it is on this post....
This is not going to be a feel good post that brightens your day or something. If that was what you were hoping to find today, sorry it's not today. That being said, you may still opt to read ahead and maybe just get an idea of one of the things I think about every... Continue Reading →
So, I planned to a trip to Zanzibar. It was scheduled for the 31st January to 2nd February. Everything was going to plan but on the 30th of January... guess what happened ? I ordered an extra meal which I probably should not have and yes, I got food poisoning. I braved through the night,... Continue Reading →
This is one of those monologues we should consider having with ourselves more often than not. One great way to reflect on your life looking back and forward as well. Still on that taking stock vibe.
So the last time I rode a bike was back in 2017. I was pretty excited as I couldn't remember the last time I was on a bike prior to the time. I should have known better than to rely on my experience during my younger years as being sufficient. Nevertheless, here I was finally... Continue Reading →

Happy, happy new year! It's already 2026. Can you believe it? I feel so fortunate to see another year, and I really hope to make it count. Like many people, I too love a good vision board, new goals and resolutions for the year. They make me excited for the year and at least offer... Continue Reading →
What better way to end BLOGMAS than with my birthday? If you have kept up with one or all of my posts for this year's 12 Days of BLOGMAS, thank you so much. That's truly the best birthday gift you could give me. I am wishing myself many happy returns and a fantastic year ahead.... Continue Reading →
Will I actually experience that kind of pain again? Surely not. Are some losses greater than others? Some people would argue yes, but these are the kinds of things I think about sometimes. After your heart has already broken into many pieces, where will 'new' pain even find space in? Does it hurt more when... Continue Reading →
The number of times I have immediately thought of the worst scenario? Too many to count. I used to convince myself that if I already thought of the worst case scenario, if it pans out, I’ll probably be less disappointed, not surprised or even ready for it. But what if I actually used that same... Continue Reading →
