Nigerian singer and songwriter Tiwa Savage has shared her thoughts on her solo vacation experience in the Maldives.
The 44-year-old artist and single mother of one, took to social media to explain why she decided to showcase her vacation experiences online.
Tiwa revealed that this was her first solo vacation, and she initially felt nervous about exploring the island alone. However, as she settled into her surroundings, she began to appreciate the solitude and freedom to focus on herself.
Tiwa revealed that during her time in the Maldives, she engaged in activities such as reading, listening to audiobooks, and practicing her faith.
She stated that her solo vacation helped her to reflect on her life, relationships, and career, expressing gratitude for her blessings and acknowledging areas where she had wasted time and energy.
Tiwa also expressed excitement about sharing future experiences with her son, Jamal, who joined her on the vacation after her solo time.
In her words; “2025 I pray to do everything different. My first assignment was to go on vacation for at least a week by myself.
I have never even been to a restaurant or to the movies by myself let alone a whole vacation. I was sooo nervous. Like how will I go to dinner by myself, go to the beach alone. The truth is even when I travel I’m usually in my hotel room alone most of the time but I always have my team around just in case I need anything. But this time I packed my bags (I still over packed sha… somethings take longer to change ) and I headed to maldives with my downloaded audio books, my bible, selfie stick, lots of kaftans and bikinis, sun lotion and my black a$$
It was the most beautiful experience EVERRRR…after I got past the first day of my fears, I started listening to my audio books, reading the word, praying, made some promises to myself and to God. I lived in every single moment and just kept thanking God for the life I live (even though sometimes I don’t seem to appreciate it) the grace over me. The protection over me and mines and at some point I cried, when I think of how much time I’ve wasted on people and things that just distracted me, made me feel so insecure and ultimately away from true love/Gods love.
I am so blessed, blessed with my beautiful family, an incredible career, an amazing relationship, a brilliant team and the most amazing friends ❤️
So for days I kept thinking what more does tiwa want, who am I? And I thought some deep revelation would come and I would write down how I could improve myself but it wasn’t coming so I decided Abeg let me stop thinking too hard and worrying and just relax, swim, read, eat great food ……and literally I started falling in love with myself, my personality, my humor, my quirks, my skin, my hair, my everything …. omooo I realized there is really nothing to change I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ENOUGHBtw my son joined me after my time alone because that is another promise I made … to experience the world with him ❤️
“This One Is Personal” 2025.”
