last of november city stroll randomness


December in the coast means heat, a lot of heat but the humid doesn't have a thing on the festive season. There's a lot of rain as well,I mean the heat is just as severe as the rain-bipolar weather. Well,Happy new month everyone!The long awaited holiday season is finally here and I must say that I am really excited for Christmas,isn't everyone?
So I'm still hunting for a job but frankly, I haven't engaged fully in the hunt yet(will do so-pinky promise). I wanted to take a little break,a big break after school and just do nothing, and I mean nothing.
My life right now revolves between sleeping, babysitting my beautiful niece- Stacey, home chores and a lot of TV and internet. And by internet I mean being on my phone mostly between tumblr,instagram,weheartit,pinterest and youtube .
Last week I had to go run some errands in town and when I was done i just felt like going somewhere and cool off for a minute or two cos the heat in Dar is insane! For those of you who live in Dar or have been to here know the Askari monument. So there's this cafè that is on the same lane as the New Africa hotel, I decided to drop in and have a look around and probably an ice cold drink to cool me down.  The place is  called Mokka city cafè and lounge.I loved loved the guy who served me, he hosted me very well and there's something about a good customer service,we all love to be treated well especially if the service we want is traded in with our money.
I decided to seat in one of the booths at the far end corner of the restaurant and ordered for a lemon flavored iced tea. I asked for a samosa later on to go along with my cold drink. At some point I thought that they had forgotten about my samosa and too bad I did not take a photo of it. But this was one of the best samosa I had eaten in ages considering the fact that I do not really love samosas. The tea was also perfect and it totally quenched my thirst! By the way, I think I saw a tripadvisor sticker on the cafè's  door and thatcan only mean one thing,Mokka city is a good cafe.
I am not sure of how long this lounge has been there but I'd recommend it to anyone who been there yet.
I have been working on my vision board or rather inspirational board and a new post about  I'm super excited to share it with you soon.

Have a lovely week!xo

Coming out of the hiding

Hello , are you still there It has been AGES and so many of you had been asking offline when will I get back here again, well guess what we are back and I could not be more excited. So many things have changed over the past few years, there has been a major shift on most of our favourite bloggers moving to the youtube world because no millennial has got time to read all that that stuff (lol) but it is all good, technology is constantly evolving and you either have to jump into the bandwagon or you get left far behind. My passion for writing and photography got me back here even after trying to run away from it - literally ( zimwi likujualo ... a famous Swahili saying) A lot has been happening in my world,  ADULTING has happened the most, internships, a full time job, being jobless, cutting my afro :( etc etc There are various good lessons that I learned over the two years and I would  love to share with you guys: Each one of us h...

Okay-Okay

 Hi everyone!! I'm not going to the basic apologies of  " I'm  sorry for not having posted for sometime" cos it's been agess. In this case I'd just blame it on my final year at campus which comes with a lot to do my research project being one of them. But it's over now...done and done! Starting with my title for today's post okay a word which I got from this fiction novel that I finished reading over the last week end called The fault in our stars - #1 New York Times BestSeller  and currently a major motion picture from 20th Century Fox.   The word was used by this young teenage couple when ending their conversations. I do use this word quite a lot sometimes when not in the mood to write or express my feelings.And I know my dad uses the ok word a lot I times since he's not a texting person.There is this one Christmas when he wasn't with us because he had to travel for work. So I texted him (don't remember what ex...
