5 Top Hotels Recommended

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well. Today, I am going to share with you top five hotels I have visited

  1. NH Hotel Amsterdam
  2. James Hotel Rotterdam
  3. Eko hotel, Lagos

I have not only had the ample opportunity to work for some of the hotels mentioned above, I have also paid and stayed a couple of nights in these hotels. The main reasons persons flying from abroad or local residence stays or lodge in a hotel is for a good night’s rest, for holidays, family vacations, business meetings, conferences and more. The reasons why I decided to lodge at these above-mentioned hotels because I like their room decoration a lot, their customer service is great,  the meals at the hotel are very delicious and above all, these hotels treat their customers with so much love, care, and respect.

A few years ago, A photographer paid for a room in Rotterdam the hotel is close to the Erasmus bridge, we made very nice photoshoots, later, I went to do some shopping in Rotterdam.

Are you a student? Are you planning to travel abroad for your studies, before acquiring accommodation before your study commences, you need to stay a while in an Airbnb accommodation, hotel, or a short stay apartment. Please bear in mind, you need to be 18 years and above before you may be allowed to spend the night in a hotel.

  1. Amazon
  2. De Benehams
  3. TK Maxx
  4. Bomont
  5. Wehkamp
  6. Zalando
  7. Sephora

These above-mentioned shops sell cool Christmas outfits, shoes, perfumes, and so on. In Europe and Africa, you may shop online or offline. If you do live in Africa, you may shop for cool items online and have DHL deliver them to your home address. I do like to shop for clothes and shoes from  Prenatal, Zalando, and so on as well.  A few months ago, I received over thirty dresses from Femme Luxe in The United kingdom, from Aw Bridal, vri and from other companies for review. I do shop for lovely jewelry, shoes, and clothing from Wehkamp, Zalando in The Netherlands. Tommy Hilfiger also has very lovely outfits for male and females and these companies ship worldwide.  In Nigeria, you may want to shop with Jumia and Konga. Shoprite in Lagos Nigeria does sell cool international brands such as tommy hilfiger. For a nice pretty christmas hair for ladies, please visit kukus hair in Nigeria or Rosa beauty online shop.

My advice for my fabulous ladies outhtere, planning to shop for christmas outfits, if you do want to buy a nice black channel or dior dress for an example for christmas, you also need to buy a nice black dior pair of matching shoes to match the outfit. If you do wish to purchase more affordable brands, you may want to shop with Boohoo or Femme Luxe

How To Recruit A New Employee For Your Company!

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well! Today, I am going to share with you great tips on how to recruit a person for your prestigious company! Do you own a real estate, automobile, spa, hospital, beauty parlor, flight ticket agency, hotel, healthcare, or insurance company? The following tips would have you empowered. It is very important to have the right human resource management and recruitment agency in order to be able to employ the right staff for your company

  1. Ask your new employee for his or her resume and motivational letter.
  2. Interview he or she based on the content on the resume and motivational letter
  3. If he or she is a match for your company, set out time for at least one week of coaching, three months trial period, and one year of contact to start with.
  4. If you are in doubt of her health, please do ask him or her for her medical history from her assigned doctor. Please avoid playing the role of a doctor when you are not his or her assigned doctor of your potential employee.
  5. If he or she is only eligible for a freelance job after a minimum of the one-hour intensive interview, disclose it to the employee immediately
  6. Always treat all candidate with respect, make your employees feel loved and cared for
  7. If you are not happy with the height, weight, hairstyle, perfume, grooming of a candidate, please do not disclose it to him or her. If you do appreciate the skills of the candidate, you may offer him or her one year of vocational training, a gift card for a spa treatment, and so on after employment.
  8. Always employ the right candidate for a job, for example, do not employ a pediatrician doctor for a gynecologist role or have him or her to go into the theatre for a cesarean section surgical operation.  For example, before treating an acclaimed diabetic, asthmatic patient, please always request for the medical history from the registered doctor of that particular patient. Over a decade ago, a well-certified gynecologist assisted me during the period I was giving birth at Georges Memorial Hospital in Lekki phase 1, not a pediatrician. Then my mother, my sister, and I were in the operating room. The caesarian operation was very successful, and the stitches on my stomach was impeccably done. The reasonable amount of hospital bill was also paid completely. Georges memorial hospital has very decent staffs, nice interior, my lady friend introduced to the hospital, she ws my neigbor, we lived at the same flat, i remember she telling to talk very calmly to the staffs of georges memorial hospital the first time i called them, she also encouraged me to attend the prenantal sections of geoges memorial hospital, she also introduced me to the online platform called Baby centre.
  9. Do not employ a geologist to fill the role of a chef, only if he or she has appropriate training for that role.
  10. Have fun!

I hope these tips were helpful! Thank you so much for reading my blog! I was a student mentor at the prestigious university of dundee from the yer 207 till 2018. I coached several students on how to achieve good grades.

My family members have also been gifted with jewelry by me and also by my other relatives.  I am a very big fan of Swarovski jewelry and zadara jewelry because their jewelry is very affordable,  beautiful, timeless, and elegant. Once more, these are list of my favorite jewelry shops,

5 Top Businesses For Prospective Entrepreneurs

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you are doing well. Are you an entrepreneur? did you recently graduate? finished your nysc? job hunting? have a job already but need some extra income? well, I have good news for you! There are five top jobs/ businesses you can easily start with

  1. Makeup artistry/modeling
  2. photography
  3. Website design/ webshop
  4. network marketing/ consulting
  5. Hairdressing, manicure, pedicure, hair cut and so on

For some of the above-mentioned career, you do need a diploma to start and some you do not need a diploma, I have coached several persons on how to become self-employed or just learned some vital skills they can make use of during leisure time spent with friends and family.

For example, Most photographers are very good with makeup or with consulting and coaching. Some photographers i know organize workshops, and coach several photographers. I have attended several workshops in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany. I once went to Munich, Germany eight years ago, the photographer sponsored my flight from the Netherlands to Germany for the shoot and also paid me for my time for the photography. I flew to Germany after several days he paid for the flight, he paid for the flight ticket couple of days before the actual date of my planned date for the photoshoot with him in Germany. He picked me up from Munich airport to his house, when i arrived at his house, i went to his bathroom and took a really nice shower, I really enjoyed the delicious food his wife prepared for me.

When I got to the home of the photographer in Munich, he was very nice to me, I spent several days at his home with his beautiful wife and kid. I was given a very nice room to lay my head on, the following day, the wife did my makeup, we then went to his photo studio to create some really nice picture. I wore a red dress in one of the photo sessions and also African attire. It was great!

This is a requested blog post. Do you need a professional photographer, or do you need coaching on how to improve your photography skills, catwalk skills, photo-editing, coaching, studio rent,  workshop, and so on? Please contact me, I and my team member can help you out.

You may want to shop for your professional camera and studio lighting with Mediamarkt in The Netherlands or Belgium. I do recommend Canon camera for your photography!

My Current Favourite Makeup Items

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you today? I hope you are doing great. Today, I am going to share with you ideas on how to become a Mary kay beauty consultant and also some self-care tips. I have been a Mary kay beauty consultant for several years.  I truly like the business model of Mary Kay because their products are very affordable.

The products arrivéd from Germany at my home address in Zeeland then. I have given so many Mary Kay products as gift items to whom came to my party then. Before I started living in the Netherlands, my very close Amerikan friend working for Schlumberger then used to give me Mary kay beauty products then in Lagos in the year 2009, then my driver used to bring me to the house. Then, I have lots of discoloration. Discoloration usually occurs after giving birth to a child. Mary Kay beauty products helped me to achieve better glowing skin.

In the same year 2009, I once visited my girlfriend in Antwerpen, she was very kind, she allowed me to take my bath then in a beautiful home with Jacuzzi, after several pampering, I achieved a very nice glowing skin. In the year 2013, I ordered so many Mary Kay beauty products from Germany, such as Mary Kay hand cream, Mary Kay lipstick, Mary Kay body spray, and many more. I sold several mary kay products and gave so many away as giveaways.

When applying the day cream from Mary Kay?  Please apply it gently on your face. Please wash your hands properly in order to achieve clean hands.

For your makeup look, you might want to combine mary kay foundation, with a little bit of Dior foundation, mac powder, blush, high lighter, Smashbox eyeshadow, lipstick from Estee Lauder. For men, you might want to use the mary kay shaving stick, body spray, hand cream for your grooming.

I hope this self-care/ beauty consultancy tip has been very helpful. Please do share with me the awesome products you use for your grooming, I would love to learn from you.
