Author’s Note

…because I talk a lot! 🙂

Welcome!
(Ẹ kàbọ́!)

Hiya! I’m Taiwo Temitope Adesope, the storyteller behind From Lagos With Love. This blog is my little corner of the internet, a space where I pour out the stories that live rent-free in my heart. Some are about love, some about faith, and others about the messy, beautiful journey of life.

I’m sharing pieces of my soul with you, hoping they resonate in some way. So, stay a while, read, and find a story that feels like home.

I’m so glad you’re here. 💛

Why do
I Write?

Honestly? Because God said so!

Secondly, because it’s fun. Writing is an escape. I started actively journaling in 2020, and I find it so comical how you can pour out all your emotions during a dark time, push through it, and then look back later—laughing at how dramatic you were.

But more than that, I write because I’ve read pieces that made me feel seen, and I believe more people need that. So, this is me, submitting my own polling unit.

Enjoy! 😊

On that note, Let’s Vibe!

This blog isn’t just mine—it’s ours. So, grab a seat, explore, and share your thoughts. Whether you’re deep in the trenches of Lagos traffic or missing home from across the world, I hope these stories bring you a little warmth.

With love and plenty vibes,

Taiwo
