I came across these on a recent trip to Ethiopia. It seems that, on the streets of Addis Ababa, the hip hop movement has branched out into confectionery. A six-pack of Hip Hop chocolate cream biscuits cost 2 birr (roughly 10p); a small price to pay for edible street cred, particularly when you consider that the manufacturers – Nas Biscuits – also share their name with a iconic NY rapper.
Robina Dam, Voyager's Editor, likes to share her enthusiasm for the world's best chefs, the smallest hotel off-the-beaten track or a natural springs spa - and with bmi's destinations ranging from London to Bishkek, there's all to play for.
Robina has over the years specialised in everything from interviews to travel, food, fashion - basically lifestyle, though it's always far from basic.
With a background covering The Sunday Times Magazine, London Evening Standard, the Daily Mail and Marie Claire, Robina is thrilled that the biggest stars of entertainment and business are giving interviews to Voyager.
She would be keen to hear feedback on places covered in Voyager and suggestions for the blog or other editorial. Contact her directly at: robina.dam@ink-publishing.com
