In this episode of Tia in Lagos, I’m taking you with me into the heart of Detty December in Lagos — the busiest, most chaotic, and most electric time of year in the city.

We talk about what Detty December really represents for Africans in the diaspora, navigating organized chaos in Lagos, spending time at Balogun Market, preparing for clients arriving in Nigeria, and reflecting on a year of deep introspection and big life decisions.

I also share my honest thoughts on living in Lagos long-term, why I don’t see myself moving anywhere permanently, and what building a life between Lagos and Milan might look like for me.

This series documents my journey living, working, and building in Nigeria — from culture and community to business, identity, and everything in between.

If you’re curious about moving to Nigeria, visiting Lagos, or navigating diaspora life, you’re in the right place.
