General Tips For Travellers!!!

Hello lovelies, I hope you all are doing well. Today, am going to share with you my favourite airlines. I enjoy travelling a lot and visiting new places, meeting new people, experiencing new culture . It helps me to understand cultural dimension, make new friends and most of all its nice to see new places. About a decade ago, I used to come from Nigeria to The Netherlands, 8 weeks on in Nigeria, two weeks off, I flew a lot with klm from  Lagos Nigeria to Amsterdam in The Netherlands.

Some other amazing countries I have been to are France, Germany , Spain, Turkey ,Greece , Italy, Belgium, Kenya and Nigeria. I flew with klm, British airways, Emirates, Kenya airlines, royal air Maroc, Turkish airline during my trips. These airlines mentioned above are my favourites. My younger sister is an entrepreneur like myself, I guess it runs in the blood. She sells flight tickets , her company’s name is called Solite Travel Nigeria.

 

Some health tips for you when travelling are as follow:

1.Do not be drunk  avoid drinking too much alcohol before travelling

2. Do not forget to set your alarm on while waiting for your flight to arrive, you might miss your flight

3. Leave your house at least 2 hours earlier than the flight boarding time, this act would enable you arrive in the airport online and prevent you from panicking.

4. Pack your luggage a day before the trip

5. Take some of your favourite items such as perfumes creams in miniature. You might need vaccination or anti malaria injections when visiting African countries.

6.Make sure you have your visa and all the proper documents ready for your trip.

I hope you are inspired! Please do share with me your favourite holidays destinations, I do love to learn from you.

I love you.

How To Clean Your Living Space Fast!

Hey beauties! I hope you all are happy and bubbling! My advice for you today is to try to be grateful for every single day and for all the beautiful things in life you have today, be thankful to God. Cleaning is one of my favourite thing in the world. I used to live in a very big house with over 5 rooms, sometimes I do spend 4 hours everyday cleaning and organizing. Its very ok to have a tidy environment, for me it calms me down. Some cool easy tips for you to make cleaning fun. I have also done some house keeping in some 5 star hotels in The Netherlands and vocational homes.

  1. Turn on the music.
  2. Vacuum the whole house first, also the bed needs to be vacuumed, afterwards, make your bed properly.
  3. Mop the floor, add some cleaning agents in the water before mopping to give the whole house a nice scent.
  4. Do not forget the toilet, bathtub, mirrors  use special cleaning agent for these.
  5. Use air fresher from Breeze or Rituals.
  6. Dust the whole cupboard,windows, doors etc.
  7. Garden your garden.
  8. Last but not the least, rearrange your wardrobe at least once a week, organize it . Have fun and enjoy your tidy sparkling environment.

Personally, I enjoy sleeping on a clean bed linen. I sleep better and also it helps to prevent skin problems such as pimples and acne when you use clean bedspread, towels and wear clean cloths daily. I hope these tips were helpful!

I love you so much!

I decided to create this blog post to inspire you all my awesome friends whom may be looking for  job or have friends who need one. Lets get started:

  1. Go online, search LinkedIn, Indeed.com, Monster board, job bird, jobrapido, student jobs. There are millions of job opening out there, you have to use the right key word.

  3. create a LinkedIn profile

Study Hacks! How to Achieve Good Grades At School!!!

Hey muffins, Hope you all are doing great. Here are some cool learning tips that would be very helpful in order for you to achieve good grades at school: Lets jump right into it shall we:

  1. Take notes during classes.
  2. Listen to your teacher when you are in class, like really listen.
  3. Visit library after school hours to work on your assignment(s). Forget about procrastination. Always read the topic you learnt in class immediately (revise)  after classes (same day). Do some research on the topic online.
  4. Join a learning/study group, look for a friend to study with, at least once every week.
  5. Make a to do list of all the assignments, study you need to do
  6. Eat properly and sleep at least 8 hours to be able to be strong for the next day.

  9. If you have enough income, you may seek for extra coaching from professionals on the topic you are studying, lets say you are taking Spanish classes and you are not so good at it, you may look online for Spanish teachers (freelance) to assist you improve your Spanish language skills.
  10. Do not allow any one make you feel bad for studying, if you do need to get 5 masters degree, phd, go for it, do not let anyone make you feel you study too much, there is nothing like studying too much. I feel that life is a learning process and we all should learn on daily basis. You may check out Audible, Scribd and free text books online incase you do not have access to library . These sites would help you improve your knowledge on any topic you feel like learning.

Above all, have fun! School is also an environment to make friends and socialize.

I hope these tips were helpful!
