Nigeria will humble you.
After my Lagos–Benin City flight was cancelled, I hit the road instead — experiencing real Nigerian road travel, a stop at Ore in Ondo State, market shopping in Benin City, and a welcome-home party with family. From airport frustration to bus journeys, local markets, and everyday Nigerian life, this vlog shows the raw, unfiltered reality.

Join me as I head back to Blackpool for a cosy Christmas travel vlog 🎄 From riding in a classic horse-drawn carriage to soaking up the lights at the fun fair, exploring the lively seafront, and walking through the shopping mall, this trip is full of festive vibes. I also take a moment to reflect on my time living in Blackpool and how the town has shaped me. A nostalgic, honest walk through one of the UK’s most iconic seaside towns at Christmas.

In this raw UK walk & talk vlog, I give a brutally honest review of my recent trip to Nigeria — no filters, just the real travel experience.
From arriving at the airport to local markets, a king’s palace, museums, cancelled flights, bad roads, and daily life in Nigeria, I break down the good, the bad, and the chaotic.
If you’re planning a trip to Nigeria or Lagos in 2025, this video shares everything I wish I knew before going — beyond the tourist highlights.

This is NOT Mumbai, India 🇮🇳❌ — this is Benin City, Nigeria 🇳🇬. In this Nigeria travel vlog, I explore the Oba’s Palace (King’s Palace), Igún Street where the famous Benin bronze and brass artifacts are made, museums, Oba Market (King’s Market), and real Benin City street life. Raw culture, royal history, and everyday life in one of Nigeria’s most historic cities.

My first-ever gym session in Nigeria hit way harder than my usual home workouts. I linked up with an old friend who’s a serious gym regular, and he threw me straight into an intense, no-mercy workout. The energy, the Afrobeats, the Nigerian gym culture — everything was next-level. Perfect mix of travel and fitness in one vlog.
Keywords: Nigeria gym vlog, first time gym in Nigeria, travel fitness vlog, African gym culture, intense workout, home workout vs gym, fitness journey, Nigerian vlog, workout motivation.
