Tayo is The Five to Nine Traveller who believes life is more than your 9 to 5. As an adventuring enthusiast she is always on the hunt for adventure both local &amp; global and loves to share her stories to inspire the same in you!    She truly believes adventure is what you make it so you can find her hiking up some mountain or discovering the latest immersive cultural experience in the city.   Tayo in her own words:   My name is Tayo and I am just a regular gal with a job (oh the inconvenience) who exhibits off the scale delight when she travels and explores!  I love travelling as it appeals to my inner childhood of being an explorer and finding something new in my surroundings, be it in the city I live or a new destination.  As a child I was an avid reader of The Famous Five by Enid Blyton who were always on adventures and I was always exploring around the estate where I grew up.     Travelling for me is a collection of interactions, memories and personal development, and tells me more about the world I live in.  Some of my most vivid memories from travelling are moments I reflect on and smile, like seeing the gorgeous sunsets over Oxford city to meeting Frank in Cuba who kindly gave me a hat made of local leaves (which I still have to this day and use for fancy dress!)   Blogging is my outlet to share my eclectic narratives and photos of the beautiful world I get to see, packed full of adventure!  The main thing  though is that I hope it inspires you to go out there and have an adventure even with your 9 to 5!   Not all travels have to be in far flung exotic places (although that is fun too!) And who says who have to jack it all in to travel? That’s what makes me The 5 to 9 Traveller!     New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday at 7am UK time - Hit the subscribe button so you don’t miss out.    You can support the mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media.

Tayo Jaiyesimi - Adventure Enthusiast blogging at: The 5 to 9 Traveller. Who believes life is more than your 9 to 5.

TAYO JAIYESIMI is also known as The Five To Nine Traveller : because life is more than your 9 to 5. Tayo is first generation British/Nigerian and describes herself as a "Londoner by birth, a Jordie lass by nurture with Nigerian spice". She considers her five to nine life as precious in which she can explore, dance, travel and "do all the other bits away from work". Tayo believes that the black experience is not a monolith and that representation matters in all segments of our society. She believes the world is a place to learn from and that travelling is just one big school trip. Adventure and travel is her "side hustle" and in this podcast chat we talk about independent travel, Nigeria, food, dancing and how it feels to be "othered" in a predominantly white environment. These are Tayo's thoughts on London, the world and life as we stroll alongside the Grand Union Canal on an overcast Saturday in March. *** TO LEARN MORE about TAYO you can visit her SOCIAL MEDIA sites: Website/Blog: https://thefivetoninetraveller.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/the5to9traveller/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the5to9traveller/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/5to9traveller/ We also talked about: Online dancing with Giovanni Pernice: https://www.instagram.com/pernicegiovann1/ AND... Women of Colour Outdoors: https://www.instagram.com/woc_outdoors/ *** TO KNOW MORE about your podcast host EMMA and JOIN HER MAILING LIST please go to https://www.travellingthrough.co.uk/ THANKS to MARISKA Martina at https://www.mariskamartina.com/ for creating our upbeat travelling through podcast jingle! AND FINALLY, a big thanks to the Grand Union Canal and Capital Ring path for hosting this podcast chat as we walked and talked. **
