Upon first seeing the blog Banana Emoji, you don’t really know what you will get. It’s not only the name that intrigues, it’s also the wide range of posts varying from personal accounts on turning 30, to a fashion editorial about what to wear to your corporate job.
The brain behind Banana Emoji is Tanlume Enyatseng. From as young as seven years old, he was entering writing competitions. At ten he’d attempted his first horror film script and at 16 he wrote his first novel: an erotic tale set in the affluent suburb of Phakalane in Gaborone, Botswana.

He teams up with long-time collaborator, photographer Giancarlo Calaméo La Guerta to shoot these stories, which lend the blog its distinct, edgy aesthetic.
In Botswana, young people get a bad rap for being lazy or complacent, but Tanlume believes the youth in the country
