One of my absolute favourite accounts is a Facebook page that I discovered after a friend of mine tagged me in a post (years back) where this page featured superstar chef from the Congo named Victoire Gouloubi. After reading that great piece, I decided to explore the page where this post was featured, fell into the Wakanda rabbit hole and giiiiiiirl, I was immediately hooked!!!!
Tyitelle Wax Your Life is curated by Christelle and is dedicated to “sharing good vibes and positive thoughts” as well as “bringing Africa & the world to your doorstep”. And I must say, the page does exactly that. Each picture, video, and article provides a great glimpse of the Motherland and all it's idiosyncracies.
Even better, Christelle has an online blog! Her blog provides a deeper insight into her love for everything African/Caribbean. Her blog posts ranges from fashion and music, to travel and books; truly an eclectic lady. En plus, elle est bilingue. Donc si son contentu vous plaît, suivez-la!
But I have to say that as awesome as her work is, my favourite aspect is the pictures she posts on her Facebook page. I am almost certain that I have "liked" every single one of her posts ever since I started following it year ago (loyal fan right hereeee!). They all bring a smile to my face and a little tug on my heart that yearns to revisit home. So below are some photographs that serve as a coup d’oeil of her content from Facebook.
Thank you Christelle for sharing your passion with us and best believe I will continue to admire your work. Merci encore!
