Meet Adaeze Vanessa Nnanna (aka Ada) – In-house counsel (lawyer) by day, tourist at night, and founder of Tourmate by Ada the Explorer. I met Ada earlier in January when I was visiting Nigeria. While recuperating post-surgery, I needed an outing to get me out of my funk. And Ada’s scavenger hunt around Lagos was just what I needed (don’t tell my doctor). As a Lagosian, I have to admit (with my tail tucked between my legs) that as a Lagosian, Ada’s tour around Lagos Island gave me a fresh set of eyes to admire places I’d frequented several times. It’s funny how Lagos becomes tender when you give her a wee bit of attention. Thanks to Ada.
In this episode, we talk tourism – its challenges and opportunities, her travel logs, why we all need to explore Nigeria more, and a strong need for the Nigerian government to boost tourism as a major export.
PS: Ada asked me about my love for Korea and was shocked to learn I was not married to a Korean, haha. She also asked me to speak some Korean, and I proudly did :-DDownload here: https://bit.ly/AdannaDL2020
