Those who
lives in the part of the world where the individual citizens” standard of living
are high might not be bothered much about financing their holiday/vacation by
themselves but for those who lives in the part of the globe where the standard
of living is low, where people lives on less than a dollar a day this write-up
may be of help if you have never taught about going on vacation because you can
hardly contemplate how the money will come.
Some may
read this and think that it is an exaggeration, but statistics showed that…
lives on less than a dollar a day.
In such area
where people are in abject poverty, they can hardly stay away from working
whether they are in paid employment or they are self- employed and so staying
away from work for the purpose of going on holiday or vacation hardly cross
their mind.
VACATION WITHOUT
RUNING ANY EXPENSES.
In June
2013, there was a need for me to go and see my father who lives in Ogun State Nigeria;
there I met one aunt of mine whom I have not been able to have contact with for
years because I lost her mobile phone Number.
In the cause
of our discussion, she told me that she traveled to London and that she came
back to Nigeria in February 2013.
This aunt of
mine was civil servant who retired from the civil service in year 2012 and I
knew that she on her own without an external financial help could not have been
able to make that trip.
I asked her
whether she used the money she collected from her gratuity for the travel
expenses, and she said “no” and while I was still wondering in my mind how she
did this, she told me that one of her aunt who trained her when she was young
has a daughter who is married and resides in London.
She said
that when that young lady was a child she was living with them in Nigeria and
for years she had not seen her until the lady got her contact from somewhere
and contacted her.
She asked
about her job and she told her that she retired from the civil service in October
2011.
The young Lady
then told her that she want her to come and visit her and her family in London
all paid trip with monetary allowance. It did not end there when she was coming
back her host gave her some cash in Pound Stalling for serving as Nanny to
their baby while she was on vacation with them.
The reason
why I narrated this story was that anyone that is financially challenged can
get, even though it may not be totally the same kind of opportunity but
something similar when we can extend the hand of love to those our Rich lonely relatives
who prefer those whom they knew or a relative to keep them company for some
time.
There are a
lot of Relatives in our villages who are lonely out there, sometimes they even give us the hint that they are lonely by
promising that we should come and visit that they will give us back our
transport fare if that is the reason we are staying back.
But most
time, the high standard of living in the town does not allow this; people keep
on working until some breakdown under stress.
I discover
that even those who are civil servant and have time that they go on leave every
year uses those time of live doing one kind of job or the other all in the name
of meeting their financial responsibility only serious sickness can pull some
people away from their gruesome day to day toil in search of money.
How To Identify An
Opportunity For Expense Free Holiday Or Vacation.
What I am
about to discuss here will work anywhere in the world, all over the world we
have lonely people who are dying to have people that have been in their past
such as brother, sister, grandchildren even their children or other distant
relatives to keep them come and keep them company.
While those
who cannot foot the bill of having a vacation or Holiday to a financial
breakthrough that will make it possible for them to take a trip to other part
of their country or other part of the world to stay for some time with their
loved one in those other part of their country or the world, there are also a
lot of rich people be they young, middle age or old who wishes daily that they
can have a close relative whom they have lost touch with a long time ago to
come and spend some time with them.
Such rich
people are not bothered about the expenses of having such relatives come over
to make their home and life lively again all they are concern about was that
their invitation may be shorn by such relatives for one reason or the other and
so many never convey such desire in word to such relatives of theirs.
How to put
forward this desire without sounding offensive to the ear of such relative is
what I am talking about here.
