Get to know me

What began as a personal dream to see the world has since become a mission to inspire others to do the same. I had originally planned to volunteer abroad during my gap year, but challenges, including my Nigerian passport put that dream on hold. Moving to the UK in 2018 and graduating from the University of East London in 2021 with a degree in Law with International Relations, my passion for exploring new cultures and places never faded.

Since then, I’ve had the privilege of visiting seven countries and journey across the UK, discovering and sharing experiences in travel, fashion, and lifestyle along the way. Through Naija Girl Abroad, I hope to show that the world is full of beauty and opportunities for growth, encouraging women everywhere to explore beyond borders. Join me on this journey!
