Hello everyone, it's hopestylist@hopestylist and this is my first time posting to the Hive travel community. I never thought I'd be posting anytime soon to this community but recently I had to travel to my sister's place in her school for her graduation celebration and I also took out time to go out for a walk around her hostel which is off campus.

Me, my sister and my brother respectively in my sister's school for her graduation celebration 🥰

Location : Ujemen in Ekpoma Edo State in Nigeria 🇳🇬

My sister's place is in a village called Ujemen in Ekpoma and the place is a little bit upgraded compared to most villages I've seen so I thought of taking some shots of how the village looks like.

We had gone for a church service and on our way back we decided to take a walk home so we can explore the place a little.

This image was a really beautiful image of the road we walked and I so much love the touch of the blue clouds in it.

In Edo state in general, they have a major problem of water supply so they do have big tanks where they fill in water and this is an image of two tanks I saw while walking home.

I saw this little statue on top tghe roof of a zinc house and it was looking really small so I had to zoom in a little to get a clearer shot.

My love for clouds is something else, hehe, I was so happy I could get a different shade of the clouds in Ekpoma and I hope my cloud lovers smile seeing this beautiful cloud 😍.

There are so many greens here in Ujemen, after all it's a village like I said and the green and blue from the sky just blended beautifully, right?

You see the shop, that is a laundry shop I saw but it was locked, it seems like they are on holiday or something 🤷‍♀️.

Because of my attraction to the beautiful clouds in Ekpoma, I could barely take a shot without adding the clouds and I just hope you forgive me for that, lolz.

This is a tiny street we passed through, you can see the brownish red sand right, that's how you know you are in Edo state, lolz.

I was surprised to see that there was a place called cloud 9 in Ujemen, this image above was that of the barbing shop and the one below was that of a laundry shop, it was looking so beautiful.

This is the laundry, I thought it was just one place the cloud 9 had is business but I was impressed to see that there was another moving forward.

This house was looking so nice and big and so I had to take two shots of it.

IMG_20221005_180820.jpg

Here's the other shot of the house, I love the color of paint that was used to design the house. Normally in Edo state they normally make use of dark colors because of the nature of soil there and that's why I think this house looks beautiful and unique.

While walking, I also saw this beautiful barbing salon and I quickly took a shot of it because people were inside but I was more concerned of how beautiful and neat it looked.

Here is a view of how the salon looks from the front view.

This is a quick shot of the Ujemen primary school fence, the school is a really big school but I couldn't go inside because I was walking with other people and it was already getting late.

Here in Ujemen, you can also find some really fancy eateries, the name of the eatery above is called Denco Foods. And if you look very well, you will notice it's a storey building, above they have a gym center.

IMG_20221005_181326.jpg

This is also an eatery and it seem to me like people love visiting this place a lot compared to other eateries in the area.

IMG_20221005_181931.jpg

This is a local eatery, but I'm very sure it is classic on the inside, I hope so, hehe. starstrings01@starstrings01 I remembered you when I saw this restaurant I don't know why 😂.

These are some random shots I took for more views of Ujemen, hehe.

IMG_20221005_180852.jpg

This is a local car wash, it was located close to a bush but it was looking so nice and it seems like the workers there are really good at the job.

This is also my entry for the #Wednesdaywalk initiatied by tattoodjay@tattoodjay in collaboration with #makemesmile by elizacheng@elizacheng. I hope your wife gets well soon JJ my best wishes and prayers for her quick recovery and I hope you are doing well too ❤️.
