Ayyyy! Guess who taking Lagos one place at a time? Me!
I have seen pictures and heard so much about NIKE ART GALLERY then boom! I visited, It was a very lovely and therapeutic experience.

I say therapeutic because I felt free from all my problems when I came out of the gallery.
To be honest I didn't even want to come out of there but you know...
![46AD6869-D1A9-4706-92C6-2C716AC9633A.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616643090/46_AD_6869_D1_A9_4706_92_C6_2_C716_AC_9633_A_e3cd084c25.jpg)
So we got there got there at around 5:30 PM and they close by 6:00 PM.
It was not enough time to absorb the ART but it was worth it though.
If you're ever trying to make it up to me buy me wine or take me to a gallery.

I didn't go alone. I went with my favorite sisters in the world Wanimi & Ronke and Wanimi brought a friend.

We got there late because of all the other things we stopped for so it was our last stop.
It should have been first(in tears).

Did I pay to enter? No!!! It's free to enter.
Would I go again? Yes! Yes! Yes!
I would  again to Lagos island (No. 2 Oba Yekini Elegushi Rd, Lekki Phase I) to see this giant building full of over 7,000 beautiful art pieces.
![55AE1CFF-9329-445E-A17B-BF902545AF8E.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616643083/55_AE_1_CFF_9329_445_E_A17_B_BF_902545_AF_8_E_768b9d003b.jpg)
You can even purchase art pieces. 
I am not sure about the prices but there are people you can ask inside the gallery about this.

What time do they Open? 10am-6pm  and they are open everyday (1pm-6pm on Sundays).
We met Chief (Mrs) Nike Davies-Okundaye y'all.
![CD7237AA-5928-4D78-B143-5FCF0A1C3122.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616643083/CD_7237_AA_5928_4_D78_B143_5_FCF_0_A1_C3122_7f193c21f4.jpg)

She owns the gallery and is known all over the world for promoting her designs through exhibitions and workshops in Nigeria, USA, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Italy and the United Kingdom.
She is so coooooool.

We were motivated.
This was in December 2019 tho, but does it matter that I'm sharing in March 2020.
Yh! I am still inspired.

Walopé takes Nike Art Gallery, Lagos.

New day, New Energy! Before we hit the road to Arinta waterfall, we took more pictures and also explored this very obvious yet not so obvious spot inside Ikogosi. It looks like a stadium. 
It is a great picture spot even though it is an abandoned place.
![E5173252-9747-4A76-9722-21F48C741424.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617293400/E5173252_9747_4_A76_9722_21_F48_C741424_31f38459fc.jpg)

We hit the road to Arinta waterfall in Ipole Iloro, It is a 15minutes drive from Ikogosi. 
The fall has 7 levels, get ready for hiking!  I could only do one level.
![965B7939-7E71-4957-BCB7-09ACB20D26F4.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617293174/965_B7939_7_E71_4957_BCB_7_09_ACB_20_D26_F4_692795b897.jpg)

Arinta waterfall is beautiful.
This place is actually underrated and everything about it is beautiful. 
The hills, the forest, the landscape, the sound of the water, the peace… I could go on and on. 
Do you know what shocked me? 
![596522DF-85C6-45D4-9065-2CC0114BB9E2.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617293190/596522_DF_85_C6_45_D4_9065_2_CC_0114_BB_9_E2_598b84b400.png)

Arinta waterfall and Erin-Ijesha share the same water source.
Erin Ijesha waterfall is in Olumirin, Osun state and Arinta waterfall is in Ekiti.
![C32DAAA0-1208-4CFB-A5EE-ED61B5300A89.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614211149/C32_DAAA_0_1208_4_CFB_A5_EE_ED_61_B5300_A89_b040287393.jpg)

Would I go again? YES.

I was told that sometimes there is an entry fee of 200 and sometimes nobody is even there or in charge.
I don't know how true this is because we went in a group and  we had a tour guide lead us 
![13A623E0-441C-42A4-8ACA-922B53411D91.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614212487/13_A623_E0_441_C_42_A4_8_ACA_922_B53411_D91_30d7d1ccc8.jpg)

WHAT TO WEAR TO ARINTA WATERFALLS.
Know that you’re hiking and the rocks are slippery so just dress smart and be comfortable.

Walope takes Ekiti – Arinta Waterfalls.

 Took a trip to Ekiti with Flytate.
We had 3 stops for our trip, Erin Ijesha, Ikogosi and Arinta.
Thank God I took this trip, I was confused and a lot was going on with me.
But this post is about my trip not what was going on.
So come with me!

![88E1CE13-BE4A-420D-AF20-F17CB33AF15C.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614211238/88_E1_CE_13_BE_4_A_420_D_AF_20_F17_CB_33_AF_15_C_a35cd33900.jpg)

Flytate Travel and explost tales
After all the traffic, We got to Erin Ijesha but it was closed.
O shock mi!
![C6C348FC-2954-4701-8C83-7D539C57EC47.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614211238/C6_C348_FC_2954_4701_8_C83_7_D539_C57_EC_47_6828cb9435.jpg)

We headed to the next stop which was Ikogosi warm and cold spring.
The place with different myths and tales.
![367DA41A-C427-456F-B8D4-0725E0125FAE.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614212478/367_DA_41_A_C427_456_F_B8_D4_0725_E0125_FAE_1ca8ad0290.jpg)

One of the tales is that a hunter married two wives. The first wife is hot-headed and the second wife is cool-headed.
One day they fought and the hot-headed wife went to the forest and turned to warm water.
 
![6A6A0AF7-3DE2-4CB9-B17B-D4377E542CBA.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1615423143/6_A6_A0_AF_7_3_DE_2_4_CB_9_B17_B_D4377_E542_CBA_bd7545d6ab.jpg)

Then the cool wife did the same too, she went farther into the forest and turned to cold water.
The husband knew what happened so he turned into a hill to cover his wives.

![BC7DAEA1-EEF9-4975-B91C-FBCB1952F0FB.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614212478/BC_7_DAEA_1_EEF_9_4975_B91_C_FBCB_1952_F0_FB_09516c422a.jpg)

Bruh! Whatever tale is real Yh?
The hot & cold water experience is amazing.
They have a warm pool from the hot water spring
![9106D01D-7EB1-4CFF-8182-2FB2F41B6965.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617294995/9106_D01_D_7_EB_1_4_CFF_8182_2_FB_2_F41_B6965_62234f713e.jpg)

After enjoying the view and taking pictures we lodged there.
![148B9A65-E67C-497F-BAC9-E3257A00569C.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614211263/148_B9_A65_E67_C_497_F_BAC_9_E3257_A00569_C_9918b338c7.jpg)

The rooms were okay but overall service was like 4/10 honestly.
The light problem, door handle problem. The most painful one was food.
It’s a lovely place with a great view but they need to touch up and do better.

I took a walk at night and It was calm and refreshing.
I didn’t walk alone, I walked with a new friend.
Timileyin’s energy is one hundred.
We realized that the environment at night is divine, although they need more working streetlights. 
No shade but we need to see.
![A17DAB12-A7F5-4EF7-864F-CD1453C863A1.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617295140/A17_DAB_12_A7_F5_4_EF_7_864_F_CD_1453_C863_A1_9b1d5b94e1.jpg)

Everyone on the trip was fun.

Today’s post is about my Kayaking experience in Lagos, Nigeria! Shout out to Wemimo of Thefika.experience for making it happen. She sabi! 
![A2B314CC-8FB4-4C7D-B497-363E0E467213.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614211394/A2_B314_CC_8_FB_4_4_C7_D_B497_363_E0_E467213_ec2af38e2c.jpg)

Our Kayaking destination was at Alluvia marine, Lekki phase 1.
There was a bus to convey people on mainland to the destination.

If there was no bus I would have probably put Kayaking on pending till God knows when. You need to see how I look when I start worrying about movements, Story for another day sha.

The journey was very okay because it was a Sunday, I would conclude that Lagos traffic has compassion on Sundays. We had time to get to know everyone and to also gist.

Getting to see Constance was the highlight of my day. I missed her a lot, hehehe come and see plenty gist and good news too.
![58E74130-D325-4DB8-8583-8605872D4DE8.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614211378/58_E74130_D325_4_DB_8_8583_8605872_D4_DE_8_67e0523186.jpg)

Kayaking was done in batches, when we got there we had to settle down and relax till it was our turn. Enough time to munch small chops, play games, take pictures and gist!
![047D1AA4-FFCC-40FF-956B-25D246B791AA.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1614211376/047_D1_AA_4_FFCC_40_FF_956_B_25_D246_B791_AA_65ecee8b86.jpg)

So it’s our turn and you can’t just jump into the boat like that except you sabi the process.
We were first timers and there was an instructor to explain everything step by step.

From how to hold, how to paddle, how to control the wave and all. You should never be on Water without a life jacket. Remember Titanic? ehen! 

Let me quickly talk about ”What to wear for Kayaking”. I would advice you to wear something you are very comfortable in. Have it in mind that you need to be smart and free and no matter what, you would still wear a life jacket over it.

Also sisters, thine wig must be secured.

Practicing what the Instructor taught us.

Practicing before we hit the sea.
After the lessons and instructions, Constance and I decided to partner tori (because) I was already imagining things. 

I was fearing, she was fearing, we now decided to join our fear fear together.
At first we didn’t get the paddling right because e be things and we needed to work together. 
Lol! One time we floated to the bridge but guess what!

< Inserts motivational instrumental>

We did it! We turned! We paddled! We put in the work! Team work! We persevered! We – (please it’s okay)

Look at us, Kayaking experts.

On a serious note Yh? I think marriage counselors and coaches that encourage teamwork should add Kayaking to the lesson activities so you can see the true colour of your partner. Constance saw my true colour. Lmao!

Anyway sha, We paddled and paddled till we got tired. I am glad that I had this moment and most importantly captured it!

Kayaking done and dusted!
If you think you can’t do it, You can.

A toast to crossing Kayaking of my list ✅

Till next post,

Mwah.


My First Time Kayaking in Lagos, Nigeria.

Walope tries Kayaking in Lagos, Nigeria.

Slept well I won’t even lie, when I woke up to get ready. There was already something to eat y’all, there were options just Incase. Anyway goodbye Igbo-Ora, we were now headed to Ibadan. The Journey was a-bit long. On the road, there were rocks and even more  hills.

When we got to Ibadan, our first stop was Agodi gardens! I’ve been to Agodi before so I wasn’t really expecting much. Came in 2015 for Redeemer’s University Mass communication departmental outing, was fun but it was tiring. Other departments came too, so it was crowded.

![Agodi zoo in Ibadan](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616640348/65_AFBF_45_49_A4_4_F00_9_B09_08_F54_BFFEF_4_C_2a5eccbea6.jpg)

They have a Zoo but I didn’t bother going there because I remember I wasn’t impressed the last time. They had lions and they were looking so hungry, I felt for them 😭.

A couple of people went to the Zoo, others to the other parts of the Garden. From reports, the Lions were not there anymore and the Zoo wasn’t really exciting.

While others were at the Zoo I was trying to decide whether to ride a horse or just sit somewhere to enjoy the view.

Yeah I eventually rode the horse. It was exciting plus the horse and I were feeling each other. Fr! When we were done at Agodi gardens, we went to Bower’s Memorial Tower.

Bower's Tower - Ibadan
To get to the peak of the tower, you’d use the tiny stairs in a tight hallway. If you’re claustrophobic, you won’t love this. We actually had one more stop ( Mappo hall ) but we were conscious of time and had to say goodbye to Ibadan.

Loved every moment in Oyo. I’m motivated to travel more.
 Yooo! Did I mention that I ate well? Lmao, What a way to end a blog post.

Don’t forget to watch the VLOG if you haven’t.

VLOG - I'm Bald now! 

My friends and I walked the longest canopy walkway in Africa. 
It is located at Lekki conservation center, Lagos and it was a walk to remember. 
Just a few  words before I show you the [Vlog.](https://youtu.be/zcmIbO9dfGs)

Make sure you go with an awesome group for such adventure 🙃.
If you are scared of heights, do not do the canopy walk.
![6E4834BA-7676-4F1B-9EDA-8526720396F5.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616644835/6_E4834_BA_7676_4_F1_B_9_EDA_8526720396_F5_534ff1d48d.jpg)

Whatever you're taking should be smartly packed in your bag because your hands would be busy during the canopy walk.
![802E5B2B-7A93-4C07-9148-17FAA578E9E2.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616644814/802_E5_B2_B_7_A93_4_C07_9148_17_FAA_578_E9_E2_17242d3f41.jpg)
There are resting points, it’s not just a long walk without where to catch your breath .
The color of what you wear is very important (sounds like a useless point but if you’re going to capture your moments, be guided). 
![83A52CE1-42F5-465B-B143-5E6995BD7CCF.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616644828/83_A52_CE_1_42_F5_465_B_B143_5_E6995_BD_7_CCF_bf3b15b2ce.jpg)

I wore green and I blended with the environment in most of my pictures. 
It wasn’t that bad but Lol. Just take my Advice😉.
It doesn’t cost a fortune and it is worth the price. 
NGN-1000 for entry & NGN1000 for the canopy walk.
![0A33B91D-3CCF-4690-A6AC-B5E7427917F0.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1616644838/0_A33_B91_D_3_CCF_4690_A6_AC_B5_E7427917_F0_8f8fc840de.jpg)

Make sure you free yourself and enjoy the moment.

These elements are accompanied with the urge to do the most and we are happy at SADE knowing that the gods & goddess spread things especially PURPOSE & INFLUENCE’.

The World Institute of SADE confirmed OVER 4000 Cases of people whose DNA match that of the god of creativity.
More updates would be brought to soon.
![B38D6213-1BB5-472F-A6D3-6BDC336ED104.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617071080/B38_D6213_1_BB_5_472_F_A6_D3_6_BDC_336_ED_104_f4d8e65229.jpg)


Extraordinary people Identify one of the gods in Nigeria.

After 4000 cases of people with the DNA matching the god of creativity, a goddess was found in Nigeria,she is the goddess of trips, Descendant of the goddess of drip (melanin drip to be precise) and god of Kindness the rulers of  Kingdom 48.
![356B315F-EAE3-482E-96B3-15CABDBDB55D.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617071072/356_B315_F_EAE_3_482_E_96_B3_15_CABDBDB_55_D_5b4f68eed6.jpg)

She was discovered by an amazing creative in Nigeria, Kachi of The Katchys Glam, a makeup artiste.
Shout out to the Beautiful ones who see Beauty in others.
Kachi put this shoot together with the best team and the goddess agreed to this as it was inline with her Purpose.

They had Willens one of  Nigeria’s leading photographer, 
Kemi an amazing hairstylist with the hands and heart of Gold and  also Alaake a Talented immigrant from Wakanda former official Assistant to T’challa. 
Alaake styled the goddess to perfection.
![05F0AF5C-ACB1-44FD-ADBF-18E6EA5BBA3D.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617071079/05_F0_AF_5_C_ACB_1_44_FD_ADBF_18_E6_EA_5_BBA_3_D_4c53891cd4.jpg)

A little back story: Alake was trying to steal Vibranium for Nigeria the plans didn’t work but her new plan is to get the goddess in union with T’challa.
Rumours have it that the goddess might not be interested in T’challa but in Killamonger and is ready to bring him back to Earth .
We keep our fingers crossed 🤞.

This shoot was inspired by Khoudia Diop ♥️

10 places I would like to Visit in Nigeria by Walopé.mp3

![FullSizeRender.mov](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/video/upload/v1617661782/Full_Size_Render_0d07c0badf.mov)


I'm really excited about my blog, it's new and I love it.
So, Last year I was working to make my blog better I even changed the domain to walope.tv but in between, I ran into issues with Uncle Mark Zuzu and it affected my Instagram account. 

The worst part of the fight between me and uncle Mark was that I couldn't share my link on Facebook and Instagram.
What did I do? All the hard work inside the gutter? Well, I learnt so much and I would be sharing how I fixed it on this [@thedigiside](https://www.instagram.com/thedigiside/)  if you are interested.

**This blog post is about the 10 Places I would like to visit in Nigeria.**
My interest in travel has doubled up and I have these places on my mind. 
''A Walope takes'' would slap right now.

**1. Olumo Rock, Abeokuta, Ogun State.**
 I must tick Olumo rock off this year, can't even believe that it is on my list. Olumo rock is that one place almost everyone has gone to for an excursion and I have been to Abeokuta many times but I never get the chance to see the rock and other notable places in Abeokuta.

**2. Ushafa Crushed Rock, Abuja.**
Abuja has so many beautiful places, every time I see pictures and I want to pack my bags honestly. The Ushafa Crushed rock has many angles and I see my self in them. When I eventually take Abuja, I would visit as much I can but this is number one on my Abuja list. Check out [Seeabuja ](https://www.instagram.com/seeabuja/)to see more awesome places in Abuja.

**3. Araromi Beach, Ondo State**
First of all, how is there even a beach in Ondo state!? I read that bike men ride on the coastline from Lagos to Ondo in less than 1 hour. I'm not thinking about doing it but there was a road project commissioned 3years ago and there is no update till now. I didn't know that the Atlantic ocean runs through Ondo. I really cant wait to see what it looks like.

**4. Ngwo Pine Forest, Cave & Waterfalls, Enugu State.**
Taking Enugu would mean a lot to me. It was supposed to happen during Easter but ''E be things''. The forest is beautiful! Do you know how we have the woods in foreign movies? Yes, we have woods here too. Walope takes the woods. Lmao
Enugu has 100+ tourist attractions and I have gone through the list. From amazing waterfalls to caves, lakes with wonderful stories about them. Can't wait to hear and tell the story of this forest, cave and waterfall directly. 

![46BA6CD4-8DE9-4AB5-A527-95ADE71B94E6.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1617658298/46_BA_6_CD_4_8_DE_9_4_AB_5_A527_95_ADE_71_B94_E6_8409206206.jpg)

**5. Osun Osogbo Sacred Grove, Osun State.**
Can't even believe I schooled in Osun state and I have nothing to show for it. Oh! I have the certificate to show for it but I didn't experience the neighbourhood at all. The Osun Osogbo Grove is a cultural landscape dedicated to Osun, the Yoruba goddess of fertility, the area was established more than four centuries ago and is the largest sacred grove that has survived to date. I know there is more to it, That is why I want to go and I also want to hear the story from an indigen they tell it better.

**6. Obudu Resort, Cross River.**
This is the finest developed tourist attraction n Nigeria! If you know another one please share it with me.
The Obudu Mountain Resort was developed on a plateau in Cross River. It is the perfect getaway. They have the canopy walk, cable cars, mountain race and many more. I think I would love to stay there for 3 weeks or 1 month. (Lol but by faith and works) The price is on the high side but we gather dey! We sef high side!

**7. Gurara waterfall, Niger State.**
This waterfall is located in the middle belt of Nigeria. It is a mighty waterfall. Just imagine the sound of the running waters. Being one with nature. I'm in my feelings as I type this, just imagine what I'd be doing when I actually see it. Can't wait!

**8. Kajuru Castle, Kaduna State.**
The castle is located on a mountain in Kaduna. It is a Luxury villa adorned with turrets, an armoury and a dungeon just like actual castles. Set awon Merlin ati Game of thrones. 
I'm coming with my white hair and if you know where I can rent a dragon please share. It is privately owned and there washad security issues in 2019. So I might need my own soldiers for protection. I don't know if I would even go to this castle but I have it in mind and would do adequate research because I need to safe.

**9. Ancient Kano city walls, Kano State.**
The walls were built many years ago for defence. I know there's more to Kano than the walls but I would really like to see and hear the story. I like anything ancient and I'm curious to hear about it from an indigen.

**10. Wildlife Park, Jos Plateau.**
I want to see Elephants! and other wild animals. I know there are hills and mountains in Jos to also visit but the wildlife park is a must. 

Nigeria is very beautiful and has a lot of potentials.
I can't wait to visit and tell more stories!

The bike costs NGN2500 per person, since Nike and I paired, we paid NGN4000.
It was about 45mins From Folu to Araromi.
The bike rode from the coastline of Akode to the coastline of Araromi.
No Traffic obviously, 0.5% risk, 98.5% Excitement, 100% Viewing pleasure.

It is a really beautiful place that needs to be developed.
3 years ago, The Ondo State government and Niger Delta Development Commission planned to begin the road project to make it easier to travel but there is no update on the project to date.

Gate fee is 200 Naira.
Things to do at Araromi Beach, Ondo State.
1.	Watch the fisherman do their thing.
2.	Swim, play and watch the waves.
3.	Relax and Reminisce ( It is a public beach but there is no crowd)
4.	Take pictures and create memories.
5.	Watch the people welcome fishing boats.
6.	Party ( They have events during festive periods)

Hopefully, development would come to Araromi Beach, so they can have more exciting activities to do when you visit.
When people travel home they can enjoy this beauty.

A staycation is a local vacation. 
It's taking a break and having some downtime in a place that is still in your country.

![6806AE65-EF85-4B17-A929-8DE0E33A36A6.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1623721826/6806_AE_65_EF_85_4_B17_A929_8_DE_0_E33_A36_A6_c7ab201554.jpg)

So you know how you'd want to clear your head or work on something in a different environment,
nothing too serious, Just a time away. Yh that happened to me. 
You'd crave fancy places but the prices would shake akant, you'd want to settle for a cheap place something will happen. Maybe rats or generator problems. 
I'm not exaggerating.
Before I get into details of the budget-friendly place I stayed, Let me share some benefits of Staycation.

- Staycation is self-care just in case the Ijebu in you wants to start an argument.
- This depends on your lifestyle but a staycation is cheaper than travelling outside your country.
- It's easier to plan since you're aware of the area and everything you want to do.
- There is no need for too much movement during a staycation, so it basically saves more time and gives room for unwinding. 

Other things to know;

![IMG_7580.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1623721469/IMG_7580_c3c76ae809.jpg)

I stayed at [Connecting Lagos suite](https://www.booking.com/hotel/ng/connecting-lagos-suites-lagos.html?aid=1610684;sid=a17910ecc592631ed0738c961f51716d;all_sr_blocks=706210001_297715620_1_0_0%2C706210001_297715620_1_0_0;checkin=2021-06-15;checkout=2021-06-16;dest_id=-2017355;dest_type=city;dist=0;from_beach_non_key_ufi_sr=1;group_adults=2;group_children=0;hapos=1;highlighted_blocks=706210001_297715620_1_0_0%2C706210001_297715620_1_0_0;hpos=1;no_rooms=1;room1=A%2CA;sb_price_type=total;sr_order=popularity;sr_pri_blocks=706210001_297715620_1_0_0__2736%2C706210001_297715620_1_0_0__2736;srepoch=1623715039;srpvid=8046a86f400400f2;type=total;ucfs=1;sig=v1yMUAQfkz#hotelTmpl) which was very affordable.

I loved the outdoor more, especially at night. 
The Artwork, The pool and the rooftop were my favourite features about the place.

- Adequate safety/security: I felt safe
- Internet: Was very fast and reliable
- Comfortable beds: Softer than the one in my house so... 
- Bathroom: Only the large single room has a hot tub. This was annoying because they didn't state it. 
- Food: Fair

My overall review:  7.5/10 
They can do better.

- Take a Nap or Read a book: I know! Why would you leave your house to take a nap somewhere else? The Nap is very different from ''home nap'' trust me!  You can go with a book or your laptop but just make sure anything you do is relaxing.

![IMG_7518.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1623721461/IMG_7518_d5b3a8e08a.jpg)
- Go to the beach or a pool: I'm glad we didn't even sleep on this, It was magical. Was in the pool till like 3:00 am just thinking and feeling good.

![IMG_7547.jpeg](https://res.cloudinary.com/walope-tv/image/upload/v1623721463/IMG_7547_753cd20994.jpg)
- Find local gems: You can take a walk to see more things around the area you're checked in to. You'd be surprised at the things you might find. I didn't walk but when I checked the map there were places to go around.

23 was okay, Lol abi I should do 23 lessons I learned at 23?
I don't really remember much sha.

I'm grateful for everything regardless,  all the experiences, the opportunities, family, the moments, the time wasted, the people that came, the people that left, the people that came and left(no not the same), The people that love me and the people that hate me, pheww I could go on and on... I'm just really grateful for everything.

Most things I actually held on to and built fell apart and I had to start all over like 3 times in one age(year).
Bruhhhhhhhh!

It wasn't really new to me but the Loop was tiring and had to end this time.
At some point, my emotions were just NUMB I wasn't feeling shit.
Was still a bad bi$$h anyway but omo...

Eventually, the Universe offered me a new perspective,
Even as this life no balance I still chop life small.

Learnt a lot but e be like say na only me go understand wetin I learn.
Enough about 23 sha,

RIP TEMI .mp3

Dear Temi, 
We haven't known each other for so long but I'm glad I met you.
You were very intentional about every conversation from our first weird chat on Instagram and other random things we did together.

This hurts alot tbh and I'm still trying to even process it.
Like was it not you that wanted to order Ice-cream and waffles for me on Wednesday morning  so I'd get better.

Not sure what I should say but like you always say, find the good in the bad.
This is bad for me but I'm grateful our paths crossed.

You are a GEM and I pray God comforts everyone connected to you.
Rest Well girl.

Music: Tony Anderson because we both love him and I'm extra like that!
