In addition to my love for African cuisine, I also have a passion for filming and reading. I find great joy in capturing and sharing moments through the lens of a camera, and I am always seeking new books to expand my knowledge and imagination. Another one of my favorite pastimes is playing or watching soccer, which allows me to connect with people and cultures from all around the world.
