all my travels in 2019 🌍🌿• 🇭🇺 • 🇮🇹 • 🇪🇸 • 🇯🇲 •
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
budapest, january 2019 - started the year off travelling because january in the UK is always a tough time for me. i think this acted as a form of self-preservation and a chance to start as i mean to go. feels like years ago but it was my first ever solo trip and really prepared me for what would later be my firt long-haul solo trip. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
italy, rome. may 2019 - finally got to see the romantic city! rome was beautiful and i saw enough but would still go back. hopefully with more sun. had some of my favourite travel encounters in this city. our lizzie mcguire inspired trip was full of pizza, pasta, wine and photography.
córdoba, spain. September 2019 - a whole blessing. got flewed out for the cosmopoetica festival, made loads of friends, spoke loads of spanish (even though i haven’t for years), got immersed in international poetry and i fell in love with the south of spain and the characteristic slow pace. i feel like i’ll be back.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
jamaica, november 2019 - paradise. spent almost two weeks solo in my motherland, reconnecting with myself and the land. travelling to jamaica and being brave enough to see home was the most beautiful achievement of 2019. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
where did you go in 2019? drop the flags! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

i’m so proud of myself. and genuinely inspired by me. 2019 has been beautiful as a whole with a few changes and challenges - all of which have worked out for my best. the biggest test of them all has been travelling solo to jamaica. what a test of intuition and inner peace it has been. i didn’t book this trip as a solo trip. i only realised that jamaica was going to have to be a solo trip a little over 3 weeks before flying. God has a way of divine cancellation and even though at first i was scared, anxious, not financially sure it was a move i wanted to take, reassuring my family even though i was still reassuring myself- i’m so glad i did this. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
i finally had some time this sunday to attend to my thoughts around my trip. some conversations with people i love yesterday revealed that i haven’t processed the trip in whole. i spent 3 weeks before the trip stressing, destressing and managing my longest holiday so far alone with a bit of a bruised heart but a positive one. i then spent most of my time in jamaica holding my own so that it could be seen that i am strong, i was also hyper-observant and holding space to be aware of my environment but being at one with it, at last. i then came home and had to readjust back to life. i’m always super reflective and there’s loads that i’ve had to let myself absorb, loads of new characteristics that are now mine. none of them matter beyond my personal knowledge and whoever is close enough to be impacted but i want to share something for those of us who have had to become self-reliant. — do not be afraid or ashamed of self-reliance. doing it alone or solo is not void or lack. you’re not a new level of brave or highly independent. you’re doing you. it feels natural and it is a gift you’ll need and more than this you need to stand firm, for yourself. just so you can show up as a greater version of yourself each time and be responsible for that sacred kind of growth. don’t be afraid or bitter about having yourself.

🌿 haven’t written a book post in a while so i took the last days of black history month to combine poetry, books and black writers in one gorgeous post. head over to the link in the bio to read my (week old 😂💛) reflections on this black history month reading list.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
p.s. a lot of my faves and friends feature because i’m surrounded by phenomenal writers 😍
