Travels 5 Simple Ways To Choose The Best Summer Accommodations For Yourself 8:19 AM If you’re living in a tropical country like me, locals and tourists alike are excited to plan their summer getaway where you are. There’s a good and bad side to that. Good because gorgeous places are near and accessible, and bad because it will be hard to find a place to stay in. There are a lot of places to choose from of course. But the question is that which one is the best? It’s challenging to find an accommodation rental that is not only cheap but also comfortable, safe and will make your stay even more amazing. So how do you choose the best summer accommodation? Here are 5 simple tips: 5 Simple Ways to Choose the Best Summer Accommodations 1. Location, Location, Location Find an accommodation that is accessible, at the center of the destination as much as possible and convenient. Ideally, it should be near bus or train stations, convenient stores or groceries, near your desired places to visit and safe. Also, try to pick a location that is tourist-friendly with a gorgeous view. Looking out the window from the moment you wake up, you should be able to say, “Ahhh, thank God for this vacation!” 2. Is It For Everybody? It’s easy to decide where to stay if you’re alone or with friends with the same wavelength. But if you’re traveling with your family for example, it’s a different story. You need to consider everybody’s needs, priority, convenience and comfort. Is it kid-friendly? Will the older ones be able to relax or do what they want? Would the teens be safe when hanging out or will there be something for everyone to enjoy? Research on these things. 3. Don’t Sacrifice Quality For Price You scrimp on your budget as much as possible because you want to get the best out of this vacation. But do not sacrifice quality for price; be it on food, transportation, souvenirs and most especially on your accommodation. It may be cheap but if you won’t be able to relax due to the noise or security issues, that is not worth your money still. Cleanliness and safety are two things that are non-negotiable when it comes to choosing a place to stay in. 4. Consider Other Options It used to be just about hotels or hostels. Now there are houses, condos, or apartments being advertised online for daily, weekly or monthly rent. Hotels may be the first choice but try to consider other options. With the help of technology, you can search for hundreds of accommodations where you want to go and compare prices easily. Don’t just limit yourself with the traditional. Just be sure that whichever you choose it is safe to stay in. Read reviews before booking or paying. 5. How Much In Total? You will see many offers and promos online about travel package. You can enjoy 2-3 days of visiting wonderful places plus transportation and accommodation prepared by agencies or groups organizing a trip. But be careful about hidden fees and charges. Make sure you are paying the right amount for the right package. Ask about additional fees. Be smart in choosing your summer accommodation. We need to go for a holiday from time to time. We need some work-life balance. Don’t let stress get to you even on vacation because of some accommodation hassles. Do your own research. Ask your friends who travelled the place before you. Ask people from travel groups online for feedback. Read reviews. Enjoy your next summer vacation! Hey, did you find this post helpful or entertaining? Please go ahead and share.

Faith When People Don't Believe In Your Dreams 5:00 PM When People Don't Believe In Your Dreams When people don't believe in your dreams, remember that it is not your inadequacy that shows but theirs. When people don't believe in your dreams, look at their history. Most of the time, these are people who once dreamed the same dream but failed. They must have seen the same spark and zest in you that they had when they were dreamers. They can sense your enthusiasm and determination in reaching your dreams. They can see the dreams they once had in your eyes. But that must be why they don't believe in it anymore. Because they failed. They went crashing down hard and it was so painful that they never want to try again. Nor do they want to be near that dream again. And hearing you speak about your dreams remind them of their failure. Giphy When people don't believe in your dreams, it is their fear that they feel and they project on you. Their negativity has nothing to do with you or your dreams and everything to do with who they are and their lack of faith. It may be discouraging, painful, and frustrating especially if these people who don't support you are close to you. It would be nice to hear them cheer you on. It would be easier to face trials and conquer your mountains along the way if you know there are people who got your back. But that's not always the case. That's alright. When David was about to face Goliath, everyone including his brothers didn't believe that he could win. How could they? He's just a boy. All he had was a sling and a stone. That's all they could see. Repeat: That's all they could see. But David is more than just his sling and stone. David knew He could because He had faith. And what did his brothers know of what he can do? They weren't there when David was alone and honing his skills. They don't hear his conversations with God. They don't feel and hear God's calling for him. They only know what they can see with their naked eyes. They only understand with their limited knowledge. Plus, there is envy in their hearts. Aren't we guilty of this too? At some point, weren't we like David's brothers? We think we know someone so well. We see their limitations and what they can do and we think we can predict what their future will be based on what we see. We are fast to judge and discourage with our words. Yes, we may have good intentions. We may want them to see what we can which we think is reality. But we do we really know about them; their hearts, their faith and the depth of what they can do? What is reality? As Krishna Saagar says, "You don't see the world as it is, you see it,as you are." We didn't see the time they put in to work on their God-given talents. We didn't see their sleepless nights and hard work to get to their dreams. We haven't walked in their shoes, we don't know the battles they faced and are still facing. Who are we really to judge? Let's be like David instead. Giphy Let's perfect our skills and offer the world what we have been gifted with. No matter how small or insignificant it may be to most people, even if the world would mock us, even when those we love and hope to support us laugh at us instead and tell us to "dream on," may we never waver in our faith. God Himself planted those dreams in our hearts (Bo Sanchez). Who are they to question it? Most importantly, why would we doubt that? Hasn't God shown us He can deliver? Is the God who can part the sea, calm the storm and raise the dead not powerful enough to equip us of what we need to accomplish the mission He has entrusted in us through our dreams? When we question our capabilities, we are insulting God. When people don't believe in your dreams, remember David. You may be facing a giant with only a sling and a stone in your hands, and that might look ridiculous indeed. But that's not all you've got. You have a big God Who will not let you be defeated and Who knows what you're capable of and believes in you. When people don't believe in your dreams, don't show them what you can do, but what God can do through you. When people don't believe in your dreams, listen to God's voice in your heart. It's God's opinion that matters most. The rest is just noise. If you like this blog post about life and love, please share the article using the social media buttons below or on the left. Thanks!

How-To How To Start A Lifestyle Blog: 7 Simple Steps To Follow 8:49 AM Online influencers and bloggers don't only have the trendiest and coolest job today. They also are financially and emotionally rewarded. How many lifestyle bloggers do you know are living your dream life? They travel, experience, and do what they love. How to start a lifestyle blog? That is the million-dollar question. Where do you begin? As a lifestyle blogger, I've gathered some simple and practical tips for building your own little kingdom on the internet. But first...What is a lifestyle blog? A lifestyle blog is where you, the Blogger, share your life with your readers, interests, activities, and thoughts. It's that simple. How to Start a Lifestyle Blog: 7 Simple Steps to Follow 1. Find Your Niche Before you even create an account, think about what your niche will be. Your niche is that one topic your blog will be centered on. Most people have numerous interests, so their blog niche is wide and varied. This is okay as long as you know how to categorize and can talk about each regularly. For beginners, the advice would be to stick to a specific topic first. To find your niche, ask yourself these questions: What is your primary interest? What do you love to do? What are you most knowledgeable about? Knowing and having your own niche is essential in blogging because: Your place will attract your target audience. You will be considered an expert on this topic. If you haven't established a following yet, stick to one topic to avoid confusing your readers. A confused reader will unlikely return. 2. Choose a platform The experts would advise choosing WordPress to make your blog look more professional. I have started with Blogger (while it was still Blogspot), and so far, no regrets. For me, it is easier to navigate. Numerous layouts now are either free or paid for that suit your taste and style. I've seen a lot of successful lifestyle bloggers that use Blogger and WordPress. Do your research and find out which one works for you. 3. Get a domain name In deciding what to name your blog, remember to... Choose a catchy name, so it's easy to remember. Keep it simple. Make your domain name reflect your blog's niche so people would know what to expect. This also helps in keyword searching. For example, people who want to read about traveling to Southeast Asia will unlikely use the keyword "constellation" in the search bar.You can buy a domain name to make your blog look more legit and professional. It is a small but essential investment.It is tempting to use your name as a domain name, but experts suggest against it. Especially if you're not a celebrity. Some use their names, and it works just fine. Just put in the work of increasing the traffic to your blog. 4. Get your own URL Nothing says professional, official, and authentic than having your own .com. There are many hosting services to choose from now. Do your own research (yes, research is a big part of blogging). Which one is best for you as most of these services offer promos and discounts. They can also offer other services like customized email addresses and plugins. 5. Design your page Your page is your online home or presence, so to speak. It is like welcoming visitors into your sanctuary and offering them what you know and have. Design your page to reflect your personality and niche. Then, make it show your signature. You'll be spending most of your time on your blog, so you might as well create one you'll always be happy to visit. Important:Make sure your website is not only pleasing to you but that it also appeals to readers. Some font colors are too painful and strenuous to the eyes. Some background music or designs are too distracting. Your reader's experience is essential. When they find it hard to focus on the content, they leave, and most of the time, they never return. 6. Research It's never-ending research. Be diligent in finding answers and tips online to help you with your content. Research also helps you find solutions when you encounter technical issues. The world is bursting with fake news nowadays. Do your own research before publishing something to double-check the authenticity or credibility of the topic.Be someone your readers can trust. 7. Write great content Content is still king.No matter how appealing your domain name is...Even if you have the most impressive web design...No one will want to follow your blog if you write like a robot. Write engaging, informative, inspiring, funny, or stirring content. Proofread. Double chekc speling. (See what I did there?)Give people a reason to hit that Share button, leave a comment and recommend your blog to their friends.Most importantly (and I strongly suggest), write honestly and from the heart.Write for people and not for SEO ranking.When you do what you love and love what you do, you hit the sweet spot between profit and passion. That is your purpose.Keep these tips in mind, and don't forget to always bring your patience, perseverance, and positive attitude. Because successful blogging is not just about posting a photo or a frivolous hobby. It involves a lot of hard work.If you believe blogging is your purpose, today's the best time to start a lifestyle blog.
Health & Wellness 11 Helpful Tips To Sleep More Soundly At Night 6:20 PM If falling asleep fast or staying asleep is your problem, don't fret.There are helpful steps you can take so you can sleep more soundly at night. Here are 11 tips that can remedy your sleeping issues: 11 Helpful Tips to Sleep More Soundly at Night 1. Don't drink coffee or caffeinated sodas too late in the day. Caffeine has a stimulating effect that can keep you from falling asleep. It can take more than eight hours for the effects of caffeine to dissipate. A late-afternoon cup of coffee can keep you up all night. Stop drinking coffee at least five or six hours before you head to bed. 2. Don't rely on alcohol to help you sleep more soundly at night. When you drink alcohol, it makes you drowsy. As a result, it makes it easier to fall asleep. Unfortunately, alcohol makes it difficult to reach the deeper levels of sleep required by your body so you may wake up more frequently during the night. This can leave you feeling exhausted the following morning. 3. Unwind before going to bed. When you are stressed out, it is practically impossible to fall asleep. You can help counter stress by taking time to unwind before going to bed. Try setting up a routine that you can do every night to relax. For instance, take a warm bath. Read a good book to clear your mind. List down your worries. Next to each item on your list, write down steps that you can take to deal with the problem.Sometimes, getting these items out of your head and down on paper can keep you from laying awake worrying about them. 4. Choose the right time of the day to exercise. Sticking to a regular exercise schedule can improve the quality of your sleep.When you exercise, your body releases a stress hormone known as cortisol. This hormone can keep you awake if you exercise too close to bedtime. Most experts recommend exercising in the morning so that by the time you're ready for bed, your cortisol level has gone down. 5. Minimize the noise and dim down your light. As a general rule of thumb, you will get better sleep if your room is dark and quiet. Keep away from sound and light distractions.Turn off your TV, radio, or any devices that make a sound. Invest in room-darkening curtains or blinds. Avoid using the overhead light too late at night. Instead, rely on a small, dim nightlight. Keep your room in the proper temperature for sleeping as well. If your room is too hot or too cold, it can keep you from getting a good night's sleep. Try to keep the temperature in the 68 to 72° range. 6. Modify your eating habits. If you are used to eating a huge meal right before bedtime, it could be keeping you awake at night. Going to bed too hungry can also keep you from sleeping. Choose foods that can help promote better sleep.Add tryptophan-rich foods like milk in your snacks or have some almonds, walnuts, oats, bananas, apricots, peaches, artichokes, and bok choy. 7. Try to limit your fluid intake later in the day. Avoid drinking any liquids after 8:00 PM so you don't have to get up for a bathroom break in the middle of the night.Soda or caffeinated drinks should also be avoided as caffeine could make you urinate more. 8. Don't smoke right before bed. Even though having a cigarette may feel soothing, nicotine is actually a stimulant. Try to finish smoking earlier in the evening so that the nicotine has plenty of time to leave your bloodstream before you head to bed. 9. Try NOT to nap. Taking naps can add to your sleeping problem. If you really need to take a nap, try to limit it to approximately 15 or 20 minutes. A short nap like this can be refreshing - especially if you take the nap about eight hours after waking up. 10. New mattress. The right mattress can help you sleep more soundly at night.It makes a huge difference to how you feel when you wake up. These mattresses from Hampton and Rhodes are known to be of great quality. 11. Don't allow your pets to sleep with you. Pets are cute and cuddly. But they also move around a lot during the night and could leave allergens on your bedding. Get your fur baby a comfortable pet bed that you can place next to your bed.This way, your separation anxiety could be addressed without you sacrificing a good night's sleep. 11. Limit the types of activities that you do in bed. Your bed should be reserved solely for sleeping and for intimate activities. Don't bring your work to bed.Don't watch TV, snack, or talk about your problems before sleeping.Train your mind to think that when you're in bed, it's time to get that sound sleep that you deserve. There are many distractions and bad habits that can greatly affect how you're sleeping. So you can sleep soundly at night, follow these 11 simple yet helpful tips.Gifs from Tenor and Giphy
