Where is your favourite destination and why?
Freetown, Sierra Leone. It’s always like going back home — it’s where I was born and I have family there. It’s amazing and you have everything: the beach, mountains, so much green and the sea, but it’s also a busy city. My most vivid memories from growing up in Sierra Leone are of the street parades that were a legacy of the country’s colonial past. I grew up in the Nineties so one of my early memories were these celebrations, and just being bombarded by so much visual imagination walking down the street. It was almost like Notting Hill Carnival, but on steroids. People just did the most amazing costumes, lanterns and floats.
