Thank you friends and Mummy for feeding me on my birthday! 4 days of celebration almost in a row, dayum i’m starting the decade right!!! 15/01 with my ladies, 16/01 with the Mummy of Girlie, then finally 🌟17/01 🌟playing drums with childhood friends and having pizza + painting the town red (got red bench) with the adopted parents! And and and finally birthday supper with Le WW. i is a happy girlie with a full tummy. i promise to not grow up too much, do more drumming and be a better human. Watch out new decade, here i come!!!

🎄 happy xmas ehrrbahdy! 🎄 this fam is definitely serving some christmas realness at the last supper of 2019. . 📸: @bryantaydotcom still so happy this ornament was not on the tree yet!!!

Not exactly your usual send off but it was a pretty damn lit musicians’ send off for our sweetheart @ariane.goh who’s off to Korea for a whole new chapter in her musical journey! 😘 Watching her sing that day, i felt so proud to see that confident happy soul in a constant state of play the whole gig. Cos that’s why we do what we do right? To be *in* that state of play. I only have these low res videos from tagged stories but i treasure them so much because it was such a memorable gig. (🎧 on to hear them sick bass lines from @col2404 and also cos @edwinweemusic did such a gorgeous job on the mix.) 💯 Ariane, you have grown so much since that first time we met on the substation stage. You totally got this. This life thing. Love you lots and jiayou in Seoul. Don’t be a stranger ok?? xxx🖤

"Ingonyama nengw' enamabala..." 🦁🐆It was hours of me chanting this and listening to my favourite Lion King song "He Lives In You" to keep my faith before we actually saw the 🐆 (although he was so far 😭) and 🦁 and even played a drum solo for the king with my mummy! Whether he liked it or not... 🙃 It was like being in my own TLK musical; a huge pack of hyenas, a field of wildebeests, baby lion cubs with their mothers, a teen leopard, the failed impala hunt of a cheetah mum and finally the celebrity lion, Scarface. Yes, that's actually his name! He was quite the rockstar 5 years ago before his accident which blinded him and broke his leg; now he's sad and scared of 🐘🐘. 😢 Being in the Mara was pure magic but I'm not gonna lie, we were extremely lucky to see so much more than just 🦓🦓🦌🦌. Nothing beat listening to TLK songs in my safari van in the Mara, the place where Pride Rock was based upon. Bucket list checked, heart is full. 🧡💛 . tldr: the real bucket list checked – YAY I PLAYED DRUMS FOR THE ACTUAL LION KING irl 🦁!!! ✅ . #flyserenafly #nanax妈

Annnnd we are finally at Masai Mara National Park after a stop at the Great Rift Valley and 7 hrs of bumpy ride!! We were so lucky to spot so many animals 🦒🦓🐘🐆 just on our first 2 days, will keep hunting for the elusive leopard and male lion tmr. I have a new found love for 🦒 who loves 🌈! Also, who knew cheetahs made that sound?? He was calling their 2 other brothers cos they are 5 brothers!! But best of all, seeing the families of 🐘🐘🐘 grazing in the wild, especially the one with the 3 month old baby was unreal. 😭❤️ . #flyserenafly #nanax妈

Ladies and gentlemen, any one of these moments might have been *the* moment a flea made a glorious break for my shirt and feasted on my blood all night. I highly suspect the 🦁 skin hat they made us wear. 🥺 I would love to have good things to say about these Maasai warriors but. As you can see from some of their body language, they are so sick of this tour – most of their hearts and souls are not in it. Then I found out at the end that the ladies who were holding me and my mum's hands were only nice to us so we would buy their expensive souveniers at the last stop. 🧐🙃My guide, James, barely spoke English except for the script he needed to conduct the tour; pretty impressive seeing that he didn't go to school and only picked up the language from tourists. I went for the tour cos our driver said the money (US$20/pax) went to fund the Maasai school they set up themselves without gov help. Seeing the dilapidated condition of the town where the national park is, I don't blame them for being this way. The money is coming in from tourism for sure, but not going back to the Maasai ppl who own and live on these lands since forever because, well, corruption. I suppose "making a quick buck" off tourists has become the only way they can see some returns and improve their lives. I feel sad and conflicted, they have so much to share with the world – if only their lives were taken care of enough so they can actually even start to think of genuinely sharing their roots because they are proud of it and not only to make money off it. tldr: I did decide to make the best of this since we were there already (missing a leopard sighting #ragrets). The jumping part was fun cos I had a good laugh at my mum (yes I'm terrible🤭) and we got to wear 🦁 skin hats! . #flyserenafly #nanax妈

Kissed a Kenyan named Kelly cos she's the gentlest 🦒 ever! (Was actually forced by our guide at the giraffe centre, but he was right to do it!) Of all the giraffes there, she has the sweetest temperament - doesn't slober your hand up greedily or mind you touching her cheeks. 🦒❤️ 👉🏻🐘 *sound on!* Also visited the 🐘 sanctuary and the smallest guy you see here is only 3 months old. He's only been there 3 days so you can see him desperately trying to make friends and annoying the older kids 🤣🤣 and finally gets taught a lesson. Don't worry, he's fine!! Super cute!!! 🐘❤️ . #flyserenafly #nanax妈

Because mummy never stayed in a suite and I found a good deal on booking.com, I tot we'd live it up a little before "roughing it out" at the safari. Africa is such a vibrant colourful continent, and everybody says hi to you (whether they want tips or not is another story 🤭😅). 👉🏻 Finally got to visit a coffee farm where we even plucked and roasted our own coffee. The poor plantation has no harvest this year due to climate change, it's so sad. I guess they are glad to do these tours! 👉🏻👉🏻 last 2 swipes: the Nai Nami street kids who showed us the rougher parts downtown and life in the city – cop bribing included unintentionally. 👉🏻 vid of a school in the slums of Kibera. So grateful for these eye-opening experiences, poverty is a huge problem in Kenya, deeply perpetrated by corruption on all levels. It's amazing to meet ppl like my guides who want to give back to the community by starting schools and educating the next generation. . #flyserenafly #nanax妈
