A part of my journey was shaped by the immigration process and the brave steps my incredible parents took to find a country safe and stable enough to raise me and my siblings.
Living in South East London in the early 2000’s was a short part of the journey. While we were there, my mum dressed me and my brother up and walked us through Notting Hill Carnival. All I remember is copious amounts of joy and vague flashes of colour.
Now, years later, I find myself returning, this time to experience and witness a place that gave my family pieces of joy in a foreign world. The unconscious memory keeps surprising me, now helping me understand what I was really witnessing as a child.

Special thanks to the God, my mother, the incredible people who continued to believe and a massive thank you to @wnfcreative Kelly, Emma, and the lovely team Sudi, Olivia and Olivia for the wonderful article 🙏🏾🤍

This is so lovely Vic. As we get older we start to connect the dots of certain things in our lives and understand them so much more than we did then. It's so beautiful of you to share this ❤️ 😍
