🦂🫶🏾✨November to Reminisce & Persist ✨🫶🏾🦂

In Türkiye, where the old and new collide, 🕌🏜️
I celebrated my 40th with gratitude and cake by the side 🎂
Thankful for life’s sweet, winding lanes, 🎢
And good health coursing through my veins. 🫀

Wisdom gathered, treasures found, 💎
With freedom to explore the world around. 🌍
From Trinidad’s shores to Barbados’ sands, 🏖️
Four continents lived and shaped, I always knew I can. 🗺️

Family and friends, my heart always embrace, 🫂
In every land, always finding a familiar face. 😊
In this Turkish dawn, I toast to more years, 🥂
To laughter, love (ones & twos 👶🏽) and joyous tears.

Blessed by cultures, a life so grand, 💵
With every step proudly I stand. 💪🏾
Here’s to 40 more, with new mates my core ⭕️,
More adventures and joy awaiting on every shore. 🌊 by @afi__h

Tourism
Memory
Heritage
3 words, 3 meanings, 3 worldviews, 3 geographies, multilayered lived experiences, culture and memories.
A Reconceptualisation effort is needed to weave the black epistemologies (Africa, Caribbean/Americas & Diaspora) in these concepts and their meanings. by @afi__h
