    HOW TO PLAN A GROUP TRIP 

    December 19, 2017 / 2 Comments


    When I was planning my trip to Tarkwa Bay with my brother and some friends I realized how hard planning a group trip can be. From people canceling at the last minute, to disagreements on the locations, honestly it’s easier to just travel alone.

    I traveled with my bro and some friends to Tarkwa Bay, Lagos state last weekend. We actually went there because of the beach so we decided to stay in a hotel on the island. We had to take a boat at CMS as Tarkwa Bay is only accessible via water route.

📍Bole Abuja Riverplate Park, Wuse2, Abuja _____ I was telling someone how I’ve been living in Abuja for almost two years and I haven’t seen a decent bole joint (Bole is roasted plantain). For someone who is from and have lived in the South all my life, I can say I have tasted some of the best in the country (please don’t argue with me 😁😂). Anyway, @boleabuja came highly recommended so I decided to check it out with @oluwa.sanmi _____ We had: Plantain and Fish- N1000 Plantain and wings- N2000 The plantain was perfectly roasted and not too ripe, certainly not unripe (I can’t stand it). I’ll never understand how people eat roasted unripe plantain😥😢 The fish was well seasoned and tasted really good. I tried the wings, I didn’t really like it. Something was just not right about it. The sauce was a bit too dry and not “stewy” enough. But overall, it was enjoyable; I finished it😁 _____ I really can’t say anything about the space/ ambience. Just order takeout!🤷🏽‍♀️ How do you like your roasted plantain- ripe or unripe?
STORY TIME!!!😁 So I was out with some friends on Thursday night @kejegrill. We were drinking, gisting and really having fun. I was drinking a cocktail called “The Godfather” (if you know, you know!😂) After a while we ordered another called “The Ghost Rider” (swipe to see a picture of it). When the drinks came, I’m not sure how it really happened but I was dared to finish one of the ghost riders for $100🤑 _____ That’s how the Bayelsa waterside spirits possessed me and I started drinking😂😂Yup! I finished it💪🏽 But few seconds later, I was in another realm. Threw up on someone I just met🤦🏽‍♀️😢 and was completely unaware that I was given the money until yesterday morning. _____ Still not over the feeling but hey! I got my money🤑😁😁 I go dey alright. Shout out to @ehbonny for taking care of me and keeping the money for me😘 What is the craziest thing you’ve been dared to do for money? And did you do it?
📍Papa’s Grill 40 Durban Street, Off Ademola Adetokunbo Street, Wuse 2 Abuja, Nigeria _____ Can’t believe I’ve been keeping this gem from you guys! @papasgrillng is the spot that comes to mind whenever I think of good, affordable food. Regular pack of Plantain and Wings- N1500 I requested for an extra portion of wings so everything in the picture was N2500. Everything tasted really good. There was extra sauce and disposable gloves in the pack. Personally I think that was really thoughtful. _____ The only problem I had when the food arrived was the oil stains all over the pack (I did a pretty good job editing the pictures, yeah?) It wasn’t really a pleasant sight but the aroma and taste of the food made me forget all of that in few minutes😂 Delivery was pretty fast but I’ll be going to pick up myself next time because I blame the stains on how the delivery guy handled it. _____ Overall Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had anything from Papa’s Grill? Rate them on a scale of 1-5 stars If you’re planning to visit soon, let me know!😁
is feeling very grateful today☺️ ____ Outfit: @ehbs_couture Wishing you a great week ahead❤️
📍The Vue Novare Central Mall, Zone 5, Wuse, Abuja ____ My friends always send me pictures of new locations because they know I’d want to check it out😁 Made a rather impromptu visit to @vueabuja last Sunday with @ehbonny and honestly, it’s one of the most beautiful restaurants I’ve visited in Abuja. ____ Really just wanted to try something from the menu so we opted for cocktails and spring rolls. The sauce that was served with it is a game changer😍😍 Chicken Spring Rolls- 2000 Frozen Margarita- 3500 ____ We also had a friendly waiter so our service was good. I’ll definitely be going back to try something else from the menu. ____ What’s the one restaurant you never get tired of going to?
I’m just happy about the fact that as much as I’ve been disappointed this year, I can still say it’s one of my best years so far. Just reminds me of the quote: “I have what I have and I am happy, I’ve lost what I have lost and I am still happy” -Rupi Kaur ___ How has your 2019 been so far? P.S Y’all better gas me up in the comment section😁🙈
My mom called me on Saturday and after the usual greetings in our language, I asked her what's up. She said she just called to tell me that she's missing me 😮😧(what?! Like whose mom is this!) I was legit shocked because I know she's always missing me but normally instead of saying that, she'll ask me when I'm going to visit them again (typical Nigerian mom moves 😂😂) ___ I literally started blushing oh and now I woke up wishing I could just go home😢 You may not relate if you have very expressive parents sha. __ What team are your folks on? Team Expressive or Team ”when are you coming home” ___ 📸: @g.preye 📍Port Harcourt Pleasure Park
Bringing you throwback pictures from @thebloggersadvocate’s Vision Board Party as the hoarder that I am😊 __ Have a great weekend✨
📍Civic Innovation Lab, 50 Ademola Adetokunbo Street, Wuse 2, Abuja, Nigeria Guys we can now experience Eko vibes in Abuja. Lagos bistro is a new restaurant in Abuja with a very beautiful space that'll definitely remind you of Lagos. ___ I posted a detailed review and more pictures on my blog. Link is in my bio as usual. Please read and leave a comment🙏
