Stories from the heart of Perth & beyond

G'day explorers! Welcome to Nelly-In-Perth, my personal space where I share authentic travel experiences and adventures across Perth and Western Australia. Join me as I delve into vibrant cultures, uncover hidden gems, and embark on a personal journey of self-discovery. This is where my stories unfold, from bustling city streets to tranquil landscapes, always seeking adventure and understanding.

Savouring the West: our diverse cultures & flavours

Perth's heart beats with an incredible mix of restaurant and wine culture, and I'm keen to share my explorations. But it's more than just a taste; it's about understanding how my Zimbabwean traditions intertwine with the Western world, and how this beautiful country embraces a broad spectrum of cultures that make Australia what it is today. Each dish, each vintage, each interaction is a step in understanding Australia's rich tapestry.

Unpacking identity: my journey through traditions & new horizons

Living across multiple countries has led me on a profound quest to reframe my Zimbabwean traditional mindset within the Western world. What does identity truly mean outside of what I have been told I am by the music I listen to, the interactions, or my firm rooting in traditions? This blog is a space to explore how these reflections contribute to healing generational trauma and nurturing overall mental health. It's about finding my true self within this dynamic, multicultural space.

Your journey starts here: reflect, grow, inspire

After reading my stories, I hope you'll take a moment to sit back and reflect on your own identity. I want to encourage you to look beyond your ego self for a second and question what truly matters to you. Make conscious choices in how you move about in your day-to-day lives, and how that contributes to your overall wellbeing. May these tales motivate you to start a new journey and pursue your dreams, far beyond the paycheck.
