Over the years I’ve had the honor of taking many people back to the motherland in Nigeria for life changing cultural experiences. It’s your turn to come. Join us in Nigeria in the fabled Yorubaland, the spiritual birthplace and mecca of the global òrìşà and Ifa spiritual tradition. We will be visiting Nigeria during one of the most auspicious and culturally vibrant times with two major festivals occurring, The International Osun Osogbo Festival and the Isese Day Festival.
We will be staying at the beautiful compound of one of Osogbo’s most senior Ifa chiefs and dignitaries, Baba Fakayode Faniyi, Agbogbon Awo of Osogboland. There guests will experience real life compound life and culture at the hospitable Faniyi compound. Medicine making, divination readings, offering ceremonies are all some of the things one can witness on a day to day basis at this working compound.
The trip will feature traditional Yoruba food 2-3 times a day as well as tours to various festival and culturally significant sites. We will be traveling in style as personal guests of Agbongbon Fakayode Faniyi.
