My name is Kwesia and I am City Girl in Nature. I am on a quest to introduce children and young people to the wonderful world of nature and outdoor adventure. To help heal and inspire. Please visit my website and socials for more information. I am seeking supporters, collaborators and fellow travellers. Kwesia grew up in Deptford, an inner city area of South-East London. Along with many of her friends, neighbors and peers, who all experienced a great deal of the challenges that come with living in an area, and with people, who have often been neglected, excluded and marginalized. She struggled a great deal with making sense of senseless violence and trauma she had faced, she found herself homeless, moving from sofa to sofa, and struggling with her mental health and well-being. At her lowest, she received what could be regarded as a gift and a blessing. An opportunity to be part of a British Exploring Society’s expedition to the Peruvian Amazon Rain-forest. This, in many ways, was a life-changing experience for her. She wanted to explore if a connection with nature could touch them in a similar way that it had with herself.This led to the start of City Girl in Nature, as a way to give back to her community.
