Try out this hidden or not so hidden gem in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province it’s definitely one way to enjoy Shenzhen nights✨ It’s called Woo Shisha Lounge and I’ve been there a couple of times now & just to say ; this isn’t me encouraging anyone to smoke, just sharing my experience. They honestly have some of the best shisha I’ve tried. So many flavors and you can adjust the strength to your preference. My personal fave? Earl Grey 🤍 Smooth, slightly sweet, and different. Another thing was the cocktails 🍸 because that’s what really impressed me. You know how some places are hit or miss with drinks? These were actually well made and balanced every time. If you’re in Shenzhen or visiting and want a chill spot to wind down after a long day, the vibe here is relaxed and easy. #ChinaLife #ExpatLifeChina #HiddenGemFinds

Before the first episode drops, I just want to say this. I’ve been thinking a lot about how to start this podcast. I really want to do it, I really want to start having these conversations, but honestly, I don’t have the perfect direction yet. So I decided to start with myself. I don’t know if that’s the “right” way to begin, but it felt like something. I felt like getting to know me first, my journey, how I ended up here, actually matters before anything else. This first episode is me talking freely about my story, without overthinking it. Just starting. Episode 1 drops soon.

2025: Lessons, Growth, and Moving Forward As I look back on 2025, one theme stands out for me: growth through movement. This year, I made the decision to leave my city and step into a new environment. It wasn’t comfortable, but it pushed me to think bigger, build smarter, and challenge myself in new ways. Leading and developing Hafrik as an ecosystem, while growing HafrikPlay , #HafrikTV and other projects, demanded resilience, clarity, and discipline. Entrepreneurship isn’t just about ideas. It’s about adapting, making tough calls, and staying focused when things are uncertain. One important lesson stood out: 👉 Don’t force people into a vision they don’t believe in. Create movement. The right people align themselves. Not every decision paid off. Some sacrifices didn’t return what I expected. Some seasons required slowing down and restructuring. But there were meaningful wins: clearer systems, better direction, stronger confidence in where we’re going. Someone asked me recently: “What do you do for fun?” That question made me rethink balance and sustainability. Building matters. Living intentionally matters too. I also want to say thank you. To my co-founders and teammates at HafrikPlay: Omobosola Alaka ,Abolaji Alaka Destiny Ezenwata thank you for your dedication and belief in the vision. And to everyone who has contributed in any way across the Hafrik ecosystem, your support, ideas, and effort truly matter. As I step into 2026, I’m carrying clarity, discipline, and determination. And I’m focusing on what aligns, what builds, and what truly matters. Grateful for the journey. Grateful for the lessons. And thankful to God for seeing me through. On to 2026.

The One Sentence That Unlocked Real Chinese Friendships Before: “Nǐ hǎo” → conversation dead in 3 seconds. Now I say: “能教我一句地道的中文吗？” (Can you teach me one authentic Chinese sentence?) People light up, teach me slang, add me on WeChat, invite me to dinner. Works 100% of the time. Try it this week and thank me later 😏 What’s your best phrase for making Chinese friends?

The Consul General of the Nigerian Consulate in Guangzhou, Amb. George Collins Onwuekwe has something important to say to all foreigners living in Guangzhou as they await the arrival of Engr. Jani Ibrahim, with the National President of the Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines, and Agriculture at the Baiyun International Airport in Guangzhou.

I recently went to my friend’s school cultural day . I got the chance to taste both Ghanaian Jollof and Nigerian Jollof and I will say they are both really good . Now I know the Jollof war between the 2 countries and I have t stand with Ghana , after all we are neighbors 😂😂 but both are really good !

Sometimes when things doesn’t seem to go your way, when it looks like nothing is working out for you the way you want them to, just remember there is one who loves you beyond what this world can offer. He says we should call unto him all ye that have labored and heavy laden that he will give us rest, JESUS👆🙌

A wise man's saying! Fish → lives in water, vulnerable to crocodiles. Crocodile → powerful predator, feared in the water. If the fish itself comes out of its safe space (water) to warn you the crocodile is sick → that means the threat is genuinely weakened, and you should believe it. The meaning: It’s about trusting information that comes from an unlikely or risky source. If someone who normally wouldn’t speak (or has the most to lose) comes forward with a warning, it probably holds truth.

Before I came to China, I thought adapting would be impossible. But after a week, I realized: if you can order food, ride the metro, and say “谢谢” (thank you), you’re already halfway there.

China makes you redefine distance. A “short trip” can mean 2 hours on a train. And people will still say, “It’s nearby.”
