weekend wandering = ⚡️
still figuring out what day it is...clearly, the new year starts (for real) monday — see y’all then 😉 (swipe for the fun ➡️) 🎉
Normally, at this point of the year I feel a bit rushed — hurrying to catch up on end-of-year to-dos, or reflect on the year. But this year, I‘ve truly soaked in the emotions and experiences that 2019 had to offer… and there have been many. This month, I‘ve been giving thanks for the year’s blessings, and the growth I’ve experienced in 2019 — and this decade! Experiences and emotions are hard to quantify but, the decade - counted in a few numbers goes something like this: • • • — Hundreds of adventures in journalism; — Met a handful of my best friends and experienced a new kinda love ❤️ they are awesome; — 10 countries explored (I may need to start sharing those pics 🙃); — 4 family graduations; — 2 films, and a whole lotta freelance; — One master’s degree; — Lots of love, some difficult loss, and many, many lessons in between. • • • What a decade — I am grateful and blessed. Cheers to 2020! • • • • • #2020 #happynewyear 📷: @ashleybbap

A true joy to finally meet and sit down with @iamishasesay ✨ Isha’s commitment to her stories and skill in her craft is undeniable. Last night I joined @womenforwomen to moderate a discussion about Isha’s powerful book, Beneath the Tamarind Tree: A Story of Courage, Family, and the Lost School Girls of Boko Haram. The book details just what happened to those 276 Chibok schoolgirls in Nigeria who were kidnapped by Boko Haram, the #BringBackOurGirls movement that followed, why their kidnapping was initially and falsely deemed a hoax, and the ‘ripple effect’ that follows the education of a girl.
