So what attracted you guys to each other? • Your wedding dance attracted over 173,000 views on YouTube alone and was on so many blogs including Bella Naija and the thing that fascinates me about it was that it was the bringing together of two worlds-- an intercontinental story, if you will. You said the theme was based on Harlem Renaissance and Nigerian influences… tell me about that Eulanda. • How was your transition to the UK like, Omo? • You run a travel, culture and food blog— HDYTI – are you guys foodies and in this to fulfill some wanderlust?

What do you think contributed to your success? • Do you think the blog can turn to a fulltime work for you and what’s the next • Omo, what’s the most challenging thing about being a Nigerian in the UK and how can one turn that around and achieve success? • If you have the ability to change something about Nigeria—let’s say you were the President and you could do that, what would that be? • How do you guys balance between (holding a job) doing some other things and travelling and running your blog? • What’s the greatest cuisine you guys have discovered and why? • If you were to recommend a book, which one would you recommend? • If you were to leave a mark on the sands of time, what would that be?
