1 Year Anniversary Vlog 💚 | TownePlace Suites by Mariott : Downtown Brooklyn | King Studio
- I booked this trip directly through Booking.com and we stayed for 3 days, 2 nights on MLK weekend.
Price Breakdown:
• Hotel= $418 (Taxes & gratuities)
• Breakfast/Dinner= Free (We cooked breakfast/lunch/dinner at the suite since it included a kitchen)
• Uber= Ranged between $28-40 on both ways due to the days we were traveling, weather and distance of the hotel (this spot is in Downtown Brooklyn)
Ways to save during an expensive hotel booking:
1. Find the least expensive ways to eat🥗 :
- For Food (cook your own and ask your hotel for a microwave! Make a picnic within your hotel stay! Get creative!!)
2. Find a cost friendly way to travel 🌍:
Transportation (Uber..Lyft..Train...Bus...Walking, whatever the least expensive option would be)
3. Ask your hotel to assist you in planning surprises or dates, that would be free and not additional add on's to your stay 😃
The budget was $500 and it went UNDER the budget 😍

      @travelwla1282 2 роки тому

      Soooo glad to have you here sis! I have my appointment coming up next week! I hear you on the waiting though, this is why I posted these videos because if you have no choice but to wait, there is no point in stressing yourself out with all the paperwork that they are going to pressure you on. Just breathe and take your time. Call them back every once in a while and check in. And their cancellations of clients are rare because there turnover of mortgage counselors is more predominant, which is the additional reasoning for the wait.

I pray that once you go to your appointment that it will go quickly by then. The main reason I am a little sad with the wait is that we are planning to do a new build so it's like by the time we get approved to the time we get contract on a house to the time it's built. It will be quite the wait. However, patience is a virtue. Can't wait to hear all about next week.

    • @travelwla1282
      @travelwla1282 2 роки тому

      I hear you. The thing with locs that most people don’t discuss is the longer they become the heavier, the more you have to manage maneuver and still have to do less maintenance in order to preserve the hair and scalp. So I would recommend first looking at exploring the strength of your hair. Sticking to certain styles and then branching off when you are ready. If you aren’t ready for locs, especially from the fear of it causing additional breakage, then I would advise to hold off until you feel that you are prepared with the management techniques that could assist you during those times that could prevent the breakage once it hits those lengths

      You will see them visibly changing. They will take the structure that they are supposed to take with time. You are a bit early in to see them forms, but give them 2-3 more months and you should start to see them take a bit more shape
