hello all,
well, i had a rocky few days of transition after such a long journey, but i am starting to find my feet and feel comfortable and have the energy to plan a bit. i am still residing in Isola -- kind of the 'brooklyn' (excuse the dodgy metaphor) of Lagos. it's a lively place with lots of traffic and small businesses and people trying to dodge the traffic and do business. i've been practicing my Yoruba, enjoying the cuisine (especially the Dodo and Jollof rice), watching music videos of the hippest Lagosian musicians (definitely recommend Lagbaj -- the masked musician --who has invented a very popular drum-centred musical style called Afrikano). Lagos is expensive -- very high inflation. yikes, only a few minutes left of my internet time for this afternoon. next week i hope to be moving away from bustling lagos to a quieter city. not sure yet whether it will be Abeokuta, Ibadan or Ife, but will keep you posted. really helpful to get your messages while i'm still transitioning... ta!
