If you’ve never hosted a hen’s do before or have no experience with hosting parties in general, this post is the guide you are looking for. We’re sharing hen party ideas that team bride will remember forever. Let’s begin.

1. Beach Party

Adding custom inflatables for every celebration can elevate the experience even more, with their custom-design that can be matched to the theme of your event, like a bridal party or a birthday.

These inflatables not only serve as great decorations but also provide fun activities for guests, making your beach party memorable and unique while keeping it relaxed and affordable.

2. Night Out

Who doesn’t love a night out with the girls? Whether you want to hang out at a new hot spot in the city or go all out with a pub crawl, the choice is yours. Nothing can match the feeling of dancing the night away and having a few too many glasses of Prosecco.

If you’re heading out for a big night, be sure to bring along your favorite party wear dress to add a touch of glamor! With the right apparel and accessories, you’ll be ready to have a blast all night.

3. Movie Night

Is the bride-to-be a movie fanatic? Then hosting a movie night is a fantastic idea. You could either go with the bride’s favourite rom-com or surprise her with a screening of Magic Mike. We’re sure the bridal party will have a good ol’ time watching sensational Channing Tatum and Mathew McConaughey followed by a delectable dinner.

4. Cookery Classes

If the soon-to-be bride adores cooking, you should organise cookery classes for the entire bridal party. This is a great bonding experience and not to mention an excellent way to enjoy delicious food. From macaroon classes to pizza making classes, there are endless options.

How to Choose the Right Name for Your Fur Baby

Everyone wants to name their pet a name that’s unique and close to their hearts. While there are a ton of possible names to choose from, there are a few tips on how to choose the right one for your pet…
CONTINUE READING >> 

Nowadays, people see their pets like family. What was a trend of naming your pet dog, spot, or your pet cat, fluffy, is starting to lose its touch. Everyone wants to name their pet a name that’s unique and close to their hearts. While there are a ton of possible names to choose from, there are a few tips on how to choose the right one for your pet.

Read more to know those tips.

1. Pick A Theme

If you’re thinking of selecting names for one or more pets, you may want to think of a theme to keep everything uniform and cute. It can be as simple as naming your entire litter with the names of the months of the year (March, June, and July), or maybe its a smaller group try the days of the week (Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday). The possibilities are endless, you’ll just need to pick out a theme to it. I have this neighbor who named his pet dogs’ after snacks like Combos, and Pringles, so cute!

As you consider themes, exploring various ideas can be helpful. A visit to a resource like Motherhood Community can provide a fresh perspective with its diverse range of pet names, potentially fitting the theme you have in mind.

2. Choose Good Memories

The trick is personalization, everyone wants a unique name, sure, but what’s more important is choosing a name that’s closest to your heart. Let’s say you want to name your pet after the countries you’ve visited like southeast Asian countries because you’ve been on a memorable vacation there, or the city where you’re living now, because being with your pet just feels like home.

And the choices are not limited to just places, of course, let’s say it was your tenth birthday when you got your pet so you decided to name him Ten. You see, memorable.

3. Avoid Command Sounding Names

So you’ve decided to get a dog and you’re planning to teach the puppy a few tricks like sit, stay, or bark. I believe that it’s best if you select a name that doesn’t sound like your dog’s name. For example, bark sounds like Mark, Ray sounds like stay.

4. Sounds That Catch Your Attention

Dogs also have a preference when it comes to sounds, so choose a name that is short, and if you can keep it to two syllables only as it will benefit you with your dog responding much quicker. Also, choosing names that have hard consonant sounds like “M”, “T”, “S”, or “K” will surely catch their attention when you call on them as these hard consonants imprint on them better.

So let’s say you’re in the city and there’s a lot of hustle and bustle going on, if your dog has a hard consonant sounding name, surely it will respond a lot quicker to your call.

5. Call Out Loud!

When you select a name, of course, you want to be comfortable with it, it’s the name you chose for your fur baby, you’re so proud of it you can yell it out in the open with the public’s ears hearing it. You have to consider if it rolls with your tongue easily, as you will be saying it for many years to come.

6. Based on Pet’s Characteristics

An obvious approach to naming your pets is to name them after or related to their personal appearance or temperament. This may take a bit more time as you will want to get to know your pet before making any decisions. Do not fret though, as by naming your pet after their characteristic(s), you will achieve optimum personalization of your pet’s moniker. For example, you can name your black-furred cat as “Midnight” or your cream-colored Labrador as Butters.

You can poke fun at it as well, my cousin named her black and gray  Pomsky “Snowball”, I know, crazy, right?

7. Names of People

Of course, choosing people’s names for your fur babies is completely fine. You will be able to discover a lot of choices for this category, the most popular nowadays are Max and Bella. Go on, give it a go, it’s all about personalizing, and choosing what you’re comfortable with.

8. Fear of Changing Names

Is it okay to change your pet’s name if you adopted them? According to experts, it is completely fine, a certified dog trainer that goes by the name of Karen London says it’s common practice when adopting. There are no rules to follow when changing names, you don’t even have to use the same number of letters or syllables. What you want to make sure of is you spend time teaching your pet to familiarize its new moniker.

At the end of the day, if you’re still undecided on what to name your fur baby, well then it’s time to bring out the baby name books, or you might want to browse the web and search for that name that best fits your pet. Do not forget to be adventurous as choosing names pets to have more leeway than choosing names for children. If in your search you find that name that makes you happy when you say it, go ahead and stick to it, that simply means you’ve found the right name for your fur baby.

Delivering Supplies to a Little School in the Jungle

With GivingTuesday coming right up, we want to help our friends at Pack for a Purpose and share our story from when we brought school supplies to Costa Rica.

Delivering school supplies in Costa Rica with Pack for a Purpose

During our stay at the Parador Resort in Costa Rica, we learned a great deal about their commitment to the surrounding area, not only environmentally but also as a member of their community.

In addition to being a leader in sustainable tourism, they are involved in several civic projects.

What we're giving through Pack for a Purpose

We discovered one of them, Pack For a Purpose, from the Parador website as we were preparing for our visit.

In a simple and effective way to lend a helping hand to schools, Pack For a Purpose asks that travelers make room in their luggage for needed supplies.

We were moved by the idea and happily stuffed pencils, pens, protractors, and other items listed on their website into our bags. click here to see more about Pack For a Purpose

Anita Primary School near Quepos, Costa Rica
The one-room schoolhouse we visited.

Upon our arrival at Parador we met one of the managers, Moises, who has taken a special interest in the program.

He offered to take us to Anita Primary School, one of the four schools they help out, for a firsthand look at the effect the program can have. We were honored to accept his offer.

Housing at the Palma Tica Plantation near Quepos, Costa Rica
Housing at a palm plantation

In Costa Rica, government education is well-funded, compulsory, free to all citizens, and highly regarded, but there are schools that are not a part that system.

The Anita School was built specifically for the children of immigrant workers on one of the sprawling palm plantations in the Quepos area.

There is an interesting history to these schools, and the little villages that are home to them.

Early in the last century, the United Fruit Company set up shop in Costa Rica to grow bananas.

At the time, there was little-to-no infrastructure in the area, so everything had to be built from scratch – roads, bridges, trains and ports for shipping, and housing for workers. The housing consisted of little villages, each with a church, a pulpería (a small store with a little of everything), and a school – all surrounding a soccer field.

In the 1940s blight hit the bananas, so the company decided to plant African oil palms instead. The trees thrived, saving the plantations and these villages.

The new owner of the palm plantations, Palma Tica, continues to offer basic first-through-sixth grade education to the children of the workers. But, truth be told, these are spartan accommodations at best. Isolated and showing their age, these communities get by on the bare minimum, and the schools are no exception.

Mostly migrant workers from Nicaragua fill the difficult, low-wage jobs.

These jobs include cutting large clumps of dates from the extremely tall tree tops and hauling them off to the plant to be refined.

While the conditions may be better than what was left behind in Nicaragua, they are far from ideal.

We will carry this in our hearts forever…

Delivering school supplies in Costa Rica with Pack for a Purpose

Driving several miles down a dusty dirt road through the dense rows of palms, we reached a one-room schoolhouse.

Professor Marino welcomed us, gave us a brief overview of the little school and introduced us to his pupils.

Delivering school supplies in Costa Rica with Pack for a Purpose

He has been teaching at Anita School for twelve years and, though many of the students are only here briefly, Professor Marino can take pride that he has watched several go on to university with scholarships.

Math class was in session and, like the old frontier one-room schoolhouses, all grades are taught simultaneously with each child at their own grade level.

Delivering school supplies in Costa Rica with Pack for a Purpose

The folks at Parador had combined the contributions from many guests to make bags for each of the children, and their eyes really lit up as they dug in.

Like kids with Halloween goody bags, they dumped the contents out on their desks and excitedly examined their haul.

By far, the most popular item in each bag was the colorful soft rubber, solar-powered calculator that we’re sad to say we didn’t contribute.

Whoever packed the calculators in their suitcases brought real joy to this group of children – we wish you could have been there to see their happy faces.

Delivering school supplies in Costa Rica with Pack for a Purpose

Though the excited students no doubt enjoyed the distraction from their math duties (as any kid would – ugh math), we knew we needed to move on and allow their routine to resume so we reluctantly said our good-byes, thanked Professor Marino, and stepped outside.

The playground at a palm plantation school in Costa Rica

Moises explained to us that the commitment from Parador goes beyond school supplies.

Staff from the resort also perform routine maintenance, painting and fixing up as needed, and even built the children a playground. While he elaborated, it was plain to see his pride in this little school.

Most deservedly so, job well done.

There are plenty of delicious restaurants throughout Rome where you can get many different types of meals. So you won’t starve!

Throw a Coin in the Trevi Fountain

Another popular tourist attraction in Rome that you don’t want to miss out on is the Trevi Fountain. This fountain was built in 1762 by Nicola Salvi and honors the Roman God Oceanus. You will be amazed by this true work of art.

The Trevi Fountain is an awesome sight located near the Pantheon and Quirinale Palace. It has been deemed good luck to throw a coin over your shoulder into the fountain. So on your next trip to Rome, make sure you get some extra good luck by stopping at the Trevi Fountain.

Up and Down the Spanish Steps

The 135 Spanish Steps were built in 1735 to fix the gap between two squares located in Rome. These steps feature a wide stone ledge and are also framed by stone walls.

This is a unique and jaw-dropping feature in Rome, so you don’t want to miss out on walking the steps and taking a few photos. At the bottom of the steps, you will find tons of small shops and cafes to spend a bit more time in.

When planning your trip to Rome you should look towards the experts. They can help you with finding luxurious accommodations and point you in the direction of some amazing spots to check out.

Have a Gelato

If you’re looking for somewhere to take a break and cool off from all of your fun travels, then have a seat and enjoy some gelato also known as Italian ice cream. The lines are these delicious gelato shops can be a bit long but they are so worth it.

You have quite a few options when it comes to finding delicious gelato in Rome. There are plenty of shops all over the city that serves delicious gelato so you will have no trouble finding a tasty treat.

See the Roman Forum

If you’re looking for lots of great cultural history, then make sure you make your way to the Roman Forum. These ancient ruins were once the center of Roman public and political life, so they contain a lot of history.

Make sure you give yourself enough time to view all that Rome has to offer. At the Roman Forum, you can see temples of Saturn, Titus, and Vesta as well as the Arch of Severus.

When looking for tickets try to find ones where you can skip the lines. This will help you see more of Rome and give you ample time to look around at each destination. They also have packages where you can see multiple attractions for one price.

Spend Time Touring the Vatican Museums

Another stop you must make on your trip to Rome is to see the Vatican Museums. These museums have over 70,000 pieces of original and breathtaking artwork. It has taken centuries to fill these museums with pieces you will not be able to see anywhere else.

There are many different sections within the museums dedicated to different themes and types of artwork. This is a spot that you will be finding yourself spending several hours just looking at all the unique content it has to offer.

One piece of work you should definitely check out is the gallery of maps. This is a beautiful room filled with maps of Italy based on drawings by the geographer Ignazio Danti.

Take a Trip Into the Catacombs

Our last recommendation may not be for everyone but it sure will be a unique experience if you decide to go. Visit one of the many catacombs located beneath Rome. These catacombs were once used as cemeteries for Jews and Christians.

Catacombs of Callixtus are the largest and cover so much of the city. You must book a tour to see the catacombs which usually lasts about 30 minutes. This will definitely be a unique and eyeopening experience that you won’t see at home.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PAYING FOR SOCIAL MEDIA FEATURES

One way of keeping ahead is by paying for social media features. This gives you a boost in terms of interaction and will help you achieve your social media goals sooner…
CONTINUE READING >> 

Social media is an area that is generating a lot of attention these days as it continues to evolve in a way that allows people to do more and more activities while using it. What started out as a way to keep friends and family up to date with the latest developments in users’ lives has now become something far more complex. While you can still do this, it is now also a place where you can keep track of the latest news, receive regular updates about your favourites public personalities, discover a whole world of creative people, go shopping, draw attention to a social issue that you are interested in and promote your business. There are a number of other things that you can do through social media and you can be sure that number will continue to increase as social media continues to grow.

The rise of purchasing social media features

One reason for the expansion of social media into other fields is because of the large number of social media users and their distribution all around the world. Across the different social networks, there is a substantial number of people who have at least one account. As this user base is spread all around the world, it means that a considerable share of the world’s population is able to connect with each other online. This has led to some of the various developments in social media as people see the various platforms as ways of sharing their ideas and opinions with a much larger audience. Additionally, it is because of these developments that more and more people are making social media accounts. This is because they don’t want to miss out on the interaction provided by social media while they also want to contribute in their own way. Subsequently, the large number of people who are taking to social media in order to promote themselves are creating quite a lot of competition for engagement. In turn, this had led to a need for people to buy social media features in order to keep up.

Why do people pay for social media features?

Becoming a big name and being able to get a lot of attention on social media revolves a lot around how prominently your profile features on the social network in question. In order to make this happen, you need to generate a large amount of interaction from other social media users. This is done by means of getting views, likes, comments and followers, among other types of interaction. This engagement brings you more exposure and, as such, it is more likely that new people will discover your account. However, there is a great level of competition for attention these days and too often certain profiles can be left behind. One way of keeping ahead of the others is by paying for social media features. This gives you a boost in terms of interaction and will help you achieve your social media goals sooner.

Where can I get these features?

There are a number of websites which offer social media users the opportunity to pay for these features. Insta4likes.com is a typical example of what to expect. There will be numerous different offers available and it is up to you to decide what features you want most and which you think can best be put to use in attracting more people to your account. Different features are available for all the major social networks so whether you prefer Instagram over Facebook or Twitter, you will be able to get the interaction you need. For instance, if you consider Facebook there are endless opportunities to explore different things. You can also keep growing your online presence by selecting the best site to buy Facebook likes.

What interaction should you focus on?

All the main forms of interaction are important in their own way so it is best advised to get a good supply of all of them. That being said, the relative value of each interactive feature varies greatly. For example, one view does not have the same value as one follower or one comment. It is closer in value to one like but even then a like is more important. This is because of what each feature represents. A view is the most basic form of interaction: someone takes the time to view your content but that is it; they don’t give you any kind of feedback and they might not have even liked it. There is no suggestion that they will ever come back and visit your page again. It is almost automatic and, therefore, it is not given as much importance as a like. A like itself is relatively straightforward but it also tells the world that the user who has given it has appreciated something about the content.

Comments

While a like is only an indicator of the user having liked the post, a comment gives the user the opportunity to delve deeper into the why. A comment also requires more effort from the user in question and comments have the added advantage of eliciting more interaction from other users, whether it be through likes or further comments in response. Comments can also be used to tag other users and draw their attention to the content and profile in question. For all these reasons, comments prove to be more illustrious.

Followers

However, there is another common feature which proves to be more useful than comments. These are followers. Followers are social media users who take a particular interest in your profile and the content you add to it. As such, they sign up for regular updates from your account. This means that they get more opportunities for interaction with your account while also being added to your number of followers, the most common indicator of popularity used by social media users. That’s why a follower is the most valuable feature of all and one which you should take particular interest in getting.

Going on a vacay in Costa Rica? Then you might’ve heard about Jaco, one of the most developed beach towns in Costa Rica with overwhelming activities. When you’re looking for fun, Jaco is the right place to be.

A lot of resorts are also available in this area, but to get the most out of your Jaco vacation, stay in one of the best Jaco Costa Rica resorts. Here are some tips to help you through it:

1. Choose A Resort With Complete Hotel Amenities

This should be one of your priorities, especially when you’re staying at Jaco for a long vacation. Although it’s fun to go around the Jaco community, complete amenities in a resort can save you time in looking for what you need, which you might as well spend while relaxing and enjoying the sunset.

Moreover, when the resort has complete amenities, you’ll save yourself from disappointments. Thus, a Jaco resort is best when it has the following facilities:

• Lounge or Bar – When you want to stay near the resort while enjoying a nightlife, a bar inside your resort is a plus.
• In-Room Amenities – Aside from the scenic resort, your room should have the essentials. An HD TV, hair dryer, Wi-Fi, room fridge, and other necessities should be available.
• Parking – If you have a car, a resort with free parking is necessary. You don’t want to book a resort without one as it’ll become a hassle.
• Diner or Café – especially when you want to taste the local food of Jaco, the in-house restaurant should also be available. So while enjoying yourself at the resort, keeping your tummy full can make your stay more fun.

2. Look For All-Inclusive Activities

Aside from having complete amenities, the resort you choose should have a package where you won’t need to spend a dime on every activity. Especially when it’s your first time in Jaco, you might need help getting acquainted with fun activities. If your resort has all-inclusive activities, your stay won’t be a humdrum experience.

Here’s a list of Jaco activities that you can use a guideline when choosing an all-inclusive resort:

• Farmers Market Tour – Some resorts offer tourists the chance to experience shopping in Jaco Farmers Market. Especially when it’s near the end of your stay in Jaco, buying goodies from this local market can be fun. You can buy fresh vegetables and fruits, and other local foods to share and savor back home.
Wildlife – If you have a package with this tour, you won’t worry about getting lost while entering the Jaco wildlife or jungle. Your resort will prepare your accommodation and travel to and from the wildlife site. All you need to do is enjoy visiting the animals. Some can even try bike rides when touring around the jungle or wildlife of Costa Rica.
• River Boat Crocodile Tour – This kind of activity may be risky, but with your resort’s package, you’ll have professional and experienced guides to take you boating along the river. In here, you’ll spot huge crocs, as well as other wildlife such as birds.
• Surfing – If you enjoy watersports, don’t miss surfing in Jaco by picking a resort that has this activity included in the package.

3. Check Out Their Customer Service

It’s no fun staying at a resort with poor customer service. Not only can it destroy your day, but you won’t get the most out of your stay in the resort. With poor customer service, you’re more likely to get poor accommodation and service. As a result, it can dampen your mood, which can affect your whole vacation.

To keep your experience at Jaco as one of your best vacations yet, choose a resort that’s known for excellent customer service. From booking to checking-out, a resort should be able to assist you, and make your stay smooth and enjoyable.
