X-mas Hair

Posted on by Senegalese Twisted

Hi guys!

Hope everyone enjoyed Christmas and was able to spend it with their loved-ones. As promised, I will share my x-mas hair!

First of all, my hair was previously straightened with the Beautiful Textures Texture Manageability System. I just used the Maintenance Shampoo and Conditioner to wash and moisturize my hair. Afterwards, I blowdried and straightened as stated in the directions. When my hair was freshly straightened, I started to part my hair and make bantu knots. Because my hair was straight, I used bobby pins to secure each bantu knot.

Paris Haul – Dec 2014

Posted on by Senegalese Twisted

Hi Beauties!

In my previous post I showed you all about the places I visited while in Paris. As promised, I did a mini haul of the items I got myself in Paris! Lets goooooooooo.

The first thing I bought was this cute little red dress with the sheer on top. I really think it is sexy and classy at the same time! I bought it at Tally Weijl in the Les Halles Mall. There were two girls working there and they were both so beautiful, I got to talk with one, she asked me where I came from originally and asked if I came to Paris to study (I wish tho). She was from the Cape Verdian Islands and she was really pretty! I am not aware of having a Tally Weijl in the Netherlands, so I think I was kind of amazed by the items of the store, as well as the service I received that day.

Paris in December

Posted on by Senegalese Twisted

IMG_0009Hi guys ‘n girls!

How have you been doing? Good, I hope :).
It has been quite a while since I posted or shared anything with you, and I am sorry for that! I have been very busy with school, preparations for my semester in Berlin and of course, I went to Paris!

Yes, last thursday, I went to Paris. I had to wake up super early in order to catch the train at 6:18 that would take me from Amsterdam to Paris Gare du Nord, where I arrived around 10. The first thing I did was buy some tickets for the subway. I accidentally bought 10 subway tickets woops! I already had an idea of what places I wanted to visit and I was so happy to be reunited with the city of love! Check out further to see how my day in Paris looked like :).

Africaworks! Conference 2014

Posted on by Senegalese Twisted

The 201IMG_96374 edition of the Africaworks! International Business Conference was organized by The Netherlands African
Business Council (NABC) and the African Studies Centre (ASC). It was held on the 16th and 17th of october 2014 in Leiden, the Netherlands.

I really wanted to attend this conference so that I could explore my interests and maybe find possible internships! So, I had contact with the organizers at NABC and they offered me the opportunity to volunteer both days at the event. So, I did. I had the chance to hear a lot of inspiring stories and meet wonderful and inspiring people including: the Liberian Minister of Gender & Development, Julia Duncan-Cassell and Grace Kwinjeh, a journalist and women empowerment activist from Zimbabwe. I will summarize both days for you in pictures.
