I am in Somaliland with my friends for the next two weeks filming a new YouTube series. Need people who can help us document cool stuff; can be cultural, historical, or unique subcultures in the country. DMs are open.
Last year, my friends and I decided to stop going on holidays to countries we have no cultural connection to, and visit each other’s home countries. First, my Bengali friend took us Bangladesh 🇧🇩
I am in Somaliland with my friends for the next two weeks filming a new YouTube series. Need people who can help us document cool stuff; can be cultural, historical, or unique subcultures in the country. DMs are open.
Great day of work experience at Tayo Maal Workshop in Siinay, Hargeisa. We’re still here for a week and a half, documenting life in Somaliland, so if you know any cool places DM me!
I deleted the tweet about Cecil Rhodes cos my sister really wanted me too but why are you lot so angry about a joke about toppling the statue of a British imperialist/ colinizer who helped engineer apartheid in South Africa🤔 Students should not be afraid to criticise their uni..

When you take poor Tory leadership, multiply it by shoddy Ofqual decisions and add classism, you're left with thousands of teenagers who want answers. The gov MUST MAKE THE U-TURN !

I'm not complaining cos I met my offer but ik ppl who have missed offers for top unis and easily would've met the grade requirements but they haven't because they don't attend selective/private schools. This years results reflect income, not outcome.

Student who go to poorer school. I got A*AB which I'm very happy about but the B was in history. This year I've only got A*/As in mock and my teacher predicted me an A* but I was downgraded by the gov because my school hasn't had an A in history in the last three years. Again...

The best tutor/ mentor I've ever had. We'd have conversations about everything from labour leadership elections, to the effects of drill music. It's been a pleasure.
I tutored
@abubakarfiniin
through
@theaccessp
for his A-Levels.
He's got serious writing talent as demonstrated by this article in

about a new wave of Somali rappers.
He'll be heading to

Watch out for him making waves 👀
