We welcome you to our small plot of African soil on the internet! American Boy, Nigerian Girl: Memoirs of an Intercultural Wedding Journey in Nigeria takes you on a ride through Nigeria as my wife and I fuse our cultures together (American and Nigerian) and join in matrimony. Early in our relationship I became fascinated with Nigerian culture, and to this day I'm learning more and more from my patient wife. By the end of our three weddings, I realized that my wife had done something for me that nobody else could... She returned me to my home.

We spent one month in Nigeria together with my wife's parents, preparing for our wedding. During that time, I kept a diary each day, which quickly grew into an amazing adventure of new foods, energetic people, deep religion, illness and even bone chilling drives through the nighttime bush.

This site is more than just a book site, it is an extension of our never ending journey. Feel free to bop your head to the latest Nigerian songs, learn a little broken English, and check back monthly for Igbo proverbs and my latest blog updates (which will be written in Proper English and broken English.
