Last year spring break, I took an alone trip to Obudu Cattle Rank. I had not been on a long vacation like this in a couple of years…AND the trip was extra special because I had to relax from work, I only get this kind of treat once in a long while because I can't afford it every year due to financial & family issues, so it was an opportunity to spend great quality time with myself.
In partnership with another Resort, I had such a great week in Cross River state. Here’s a look at how I chilled..... Hope you don't mind.
I spent a lot of time in the shades, by the waterfall every day!
You always see people go to beautiful places in movies or on TV, so I love taking myself to places that truly celebrate the Efik culture.
The story they told us was so beautiful, and the narration was amazing—I was in tears by the end. Also, there was a ton of fun pre-Efik activities for the whole holiday seekers to partake in that even I loved it!
During one of my days, I rented a Golf van (did I mention how much I wanted to drive in a golf van) and drove on the sandy shore of the resort. I got roadside snacks, explored some of the other scenery, and ate food from food vendors! I pretty much ate to my satisfaction in shrimps and suya by the end of my trip!
More than anything, the best part was simply uninterrupted time with me and nature and I hope to do this again after my wife has put to birth, so we can celebrate & relax as a family.
