Relationship Expert Julia Sanna Discusses What Every African Immigrant Ought to Know About Relationships (Part One)

Would You Move in with Your Partner Before Marriage?
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008My co-host on SARFM radio (I get tickled silly that I can say that), Pammy, sent me an email asking me to check out a video.

Monday, August 11th, 2008This blog has been around for 8+ months now and I was actually extremely surprised when I realized that not once did I talk about something so unique yet so present within the African immigrant experience.
So Here’s What You Do When You are a Terrible Friend
Monday, July 28th, 2008Over the course of my time here in Australia I have lost my fair share of friends. Now granted, I have reconciled with many of them, and am in the process of being disconnected by some others, but still, I feel that perhaps I would best serve you by writing an article on how to keep friends from someone who is currently losing a few.
