USEFUL TIPS TO REMEMBER WHEN TRAVELING WITH KIDS

"LIFESTYLE"

FEATURED IMAGE FROM BING.COM Kids are amazing creatures no doubt. Chubby and cute and cuddly. But there's truly nothing amazing about traveling with them. In fact, traveling with kids can be borderline stressful. I don’t even have kids but I know this first hand, traveling with my younger siblings are some of my worst travel experience, from cries and screams to embarrassing strangers, to ridiculous demands, the list is endless. What you definitely do not need is the added struggle of not been prepared. That can easily make your travel go from pleasant to horrifying in a second. How then do you travel with kids with little or no stress? I'll tell you. BOOK AHEAD: Flights, hotel rooms, tours? Book everything on time. It does not pay to arrive at the airport/destination dragging a…

LIFE LATELY: LONELINESS, GOD AND ALL THAT I HAVE LEARNT

"LIFESTYLE"

Happy new year guys. Life continues. Last year was a roller coaster. A year that was rough sometimes and then smooth other times. I had a lot of happy moments for which I am extremely grateful for and I had a few terrible moments for which I am still grateful for. I did things I’d never tried before, both good and bad. Pushed myself past the limits I’d been too lazy to push past before.

REFLECTIONS: THREE POSITIVE CHANGES I’VE MADE THIS YEAR

"LIFESTYLE, STYLE"

REFLECTIONS It's been almost a month since I made a post. Almost a month till the year ends. And it's been six months since dearsalmah went live, I'm grateful for all the friends, readers and bloggers that have stuck with me. Reflections...

So my work suffered, my business suffered, my blog suffered, and my relationship suffered. Alhamdullilah, this phase didn't last too long. I think it was my systems natural way of having an automatic reboot. A reboot I needed and refused to initiate, my system forced on…

NATIONAL PARK AND ZOO ABUJA: MY EXPERIENCE AND THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

"LIFESTYLE"

The tittle of this post is meant to come off as sarcastic but I think I failed. During my blogcation, I made it a point to do stuffs and visit places I'd never been in Abuja before. At the top of my list was the zoo in Abuja. It seemed everyone I know had been. Only me. Hai! I don't even know how comes I was always passing it. My mom told me I would love it, "you'd see giraffes and antelopes and a tortoise as big as a table" I was ecstatic! I could not wait to go. When I told my friends I'd be going and asked if they would like to come with, they tried to cramp my style saying things like "oh, that place is dead, there is nothing there" I…
