    Black History Documentaries

    by Tykesha77 January 20, 2021

    There is a sizable selection of Black history documentaries available on streaming sites like Amazon and Netflix. As a student of Black Studies and journalism, the documentary genre lives at the intersection of my two greatest loves, Black History and storytelling. In short, Black history documentaries are my love language. I’ve expressed my love of learning about Black History by visiting museums at home and while we’re traveling.  But museums aren’t the only medium filled…

    Historic Hampton House in Miami

    by Tykesha77 January 13, 2021

    A few short miles away from Miami’s world-famous South Beach, there’s a little-known historic gem ­— the Hampton House Motel. Once dubbed, the “first luxury hotel for Negros in the South,” this Negro Motorist Green Book establishment was the epitome of Black excellence in Miami, Florida in the 1960s. I’ve traveled the world on a quest to learn as much as I can about the histories of Black and Brown people across the globe.  As…

    My Ultimate Travel Bucket List After the Travel Bans Are Lifted

    by Tykesha77 September 17, 2020

    Planning a Travel Bucket List might seem a bit overwhelming and even macabre. But surprisingly, creating this list has had the opposite effect.  I’ve always had a list of ‘things to do before I die’ in my head.  It wasn’t until COVID that I took the time to write my bucket list out. My initial list included goals for my health, and family, the bulk of my bucket list was all about travel (surprise surprise).…

    Touring Graceland in an Age of Reckoning

    by Tykesha77 August 14, 2020

    UNPOPULAR OPINION:  I like Elvis Presley. While I am not ashamed of this fact, I do understand that Elvis is a very polarizing character in the Black community. Long before I knew about culture vultures and racial appropriation, I discovered Elvis, the actor. As a latchkey kid, I watched a LOT of television and I loved musicals. At some point, I stumbled upon a campy “Beach Party”-isk movie starring Elvis and I was hooked. I…

Introducing Aubrey, our first-born and the reason Introducing Aubrey, our first-born and the reason we launched MommaWanderlust.com. He just turned 7 last week, and he loves to travel almost as much as his momma. He has an insatiable thirst for knowledge and routinely drives us crazy with his questions. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This kiddo is super sweet and compassionate. He’s also the family jester — ALWAYS clownin’ 🤡. Aubrey recently discovered 90s sitcom Martin while watching YouTube with his dad...”Dragonfly Jones” is now his favorite TV character. 🤣 Aubrey cracks us up doing his own impressions of Martin characters. ⁠⁠

We went on a culinary tour of Kenya for spring bre We went on a culinary tour of Kenya for spring break. We didn't actually fly there, but we learned a bit about Kenyan food and culture with our new @eat2explore monthly subscription box. Kenya🇰🇪 was the theme for our first box. We learned a few Swahili words, and the kdis had a ball making Nyama with Ugali and Sukuma Wiki. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We just received our box for this month, and it looks like we'll be visiting Greece 🇬🇷!! Each month we'll receive a package that includes 3 recipes from the country of the month along with spices, a passport sticker and a metal pin featuring the country's flag. Check the link in bio to sign up. ⁠⁠
