Meet the Journeyman
Hello once again, my official birth names are Emmanuel Ileiza Musa. This adventurous Journeyman was born in a quiet hospital (my loud cries definitely made the hospital noisy) in the rocky city of Jos, Plateau State.
From a young age (probably 7), I have always been very adventurous. I remember vividly exploring little hills with my friends and the excitement we felt from standing at the top, shouting our names and hearing it echo on & on. Figuratively, it was our way of announcing ourselves to the world. I have tried a lot of stuff in my short time so far on earth e.g. jumping into a dam when I had no idea how to swim (how I came out alive is a story for another day). For the records, I was in junior secondary school when I attempted this and you can blame it on adrenaline.
Today, that passion for exploration still remains and it has found expression through travel, hiking, snorkeling, sky-diving, and a whole lot of other adrenaline pumping experiences.
This site is a collection of all of those experiences so far and some I wish to experience in the near future so stay with me as we go through this journey. Welcome to the Journeyman side of life. You will love it here!
