I began solo traveling in 2015. While I haven’t covered all 36 states in Nigeria, I have been to all the regions in the country. However, I am always in awe whenever I travel to the Northern part of Nigeria. While Nigerians are quite colorful, there is an unmatched vibrancy that exists in the Northern part of Nigeria.
