I am who I am (No barbie)

AbariVtheWorld I do my best to elevate things that are often dismissed/disregarded. I'm passionate about travel, Africans and spoken word. I think we have come to a time where we can not accept anything other then who we are and what we are rising to be so no barbie; just me. Going against what others may think, in my own head, conquering the world. #Abarivtheworld

What would happen if Africans supported each other, in business, in friend circle and basic everyday life?

Affirmation: We’ll put down our egos and create a better continent.

I miss that day! How can you reflect your country with your outfit?

I created a simple black elegant look with my cap being my flag. My only regret was to do something with my hat but overall I loved it!

In the past few months, I’ve been hit with the awareness of all the great achievements Africans and African diaspora have created. But I’ve also been made aware of the lack of support they receive from their own people. I know I’m not the best either but I want to change that and be better! So please let me know what are your favorite African business or organizations and I’ll share mine as well! Africans and African diasporas are doing amazing things, let’s not forget to celebrate them!

Where’s a place you and your friends need to travel to?

The Virgin Islands was the ultimate girls trip for me and I can't wait for more girl trips in 2019!!!

It was a week of island hopping, wild adventures and long waiting times because 6 girls mean getting ready takes 3x more time than usual :) 

So where are you going this year?

Travel has a tendency to look very glamorous but that’s not always the case. I’ve been getting a lot of comments about how perfect my life looks, and that’s concerning because there is really no such thing. Social media is a great way to share pieces of my journey, but know that there’s always more to the story. I don’t post images of the times I’ve been homesick, frustrated from limited wifi or language barriers, or the one time I accidentally booked a week’s stay at a place infested with bugs (😖). Not to mention the difficulties of remaining on a plant-based diet in Africa lol. Even though this is a dream come true from me, it comes with its own share of challenges that I have to overcome. But that’s all part of the experience, so I take the downs with the ups.

Series: Education struggles in South Sudan - Nyaboth, 6, holds her family stove that she carries to school to sit on during class. She says “There is nothing to sit on at school and as soon as I bring the stove home my mother needs it straight away for cooking”, she says with a smile. “The war brought me and my family here. I saw so many bad men with guns shooting people, I saw so many wounded. It made me very sad, it was so bad and it made me sad. I am very happy at school, my favourite subject is math. I live here in the POC with my mother and I feel safe.”
