Hello darlings!

Freshly Squeezed is back! Officially.
And with such a loaded edition, you won’t be disappointed. The community spirit in Lagos is clearly blooming.
The week kicks off with a public holiday to celebrate Lagos💖, ramps up the spooky vibes with everything from candlelit pumpkin carving to pet costume parades🐶, and closes out with arm balances and Sunday roasts. Plus art nights, quiz battles, and enough social gatherings to fill your calendar twice.

And remember, although its looking like a rainy week ahead, this is the time of year to join local social occasions, become a part of the community, and consequently thrive (rather than just survive) through the winter months. Go get ‘em Tiger 🐯!
