The Procrastinator’s Guide to Valentine’s Day in Lagos.

Valentine’s Day is in a few days and if you haven’t figured out what to do yet then this amazing guide from Whispering Palms is for you!

GO GROCERY SHOPPING: Someone told me this was a very romantic thing to do. As I type this, I’ve realized it’s probably not so you should definitely not do this.

SPEND IT ALONE: This is probably what’ll happen if you show up on Sunday with no plans at all. You’ll have yourself to blame. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Yes, Valentine’s Day is a scam perpetuated by capitalists to take your money. Your partner isn’t trying to hear this, however.

ROMANTIC DINNER AT HOME: Yes, a home cooked meal. Lagos restaurants are going to rip you off on Valentine’s Day and you can finally put all that cooking you had to do when you went off to university to use. Nothing signifies your love for your partner like using your precious time to create something they’d love. You’re gifting them your time and time is money. Everybody loves money.

A WHISPERING PALMS STAY-CATION: Now, this one is actually genius. Tucked in scenic Badagry, Whispering Palms is truly one of Lagos’ hidden gems. For N55,000, you get:
