I’m originally from Sierra Leone, but based in New York for the last 11 years. I studied abroad in London for two semesters and took that opportunity to travel around Western and Central Europe. Since then I have traveled to Cartagena, San Juan, Cabo, LA and Atlanta. I love to travel and I’m hoping to cross a few more cities off my bucket list in the coming years.
