steem women club engagement contest 2 (Visit to my hometown "Ogwa")

Hello my steem friends

Its so good to be here and am really excited about the ongoing steemit engagement challenge. Special appreciation goes to steemit team for this initiative and to this amazing community i say thank you for hosting this contest.

I would like to share with you all about my this year holiday travel plan. I hope you enjoy reading.

I love travelling during my Christmas holiday and this year will not be an exception. While growing up my parent brought us up in way that where ever we are once its christmas we should all come back home to my home town and spend the christmas together as one big family.

After i was done with school, and left home, travelling back home during the christmas holiday became an issue to me, for a long time i didnt travel to my hometown for christmas.

Last year i decided to travel to my hometown for christmas holiday because my parents and siblings insisted i come back home in other to celebrate my parents 40years anniversary so i travelled home to my hometown called Ogwa. Ogwa is a small village found in a local government called mbaitoli In imo State Nigeria. The people of ogwa are very welcoming people, they are mostly traders and farmers. Ogwa is not a noisy place unlike the city where i stay,so its a good place to go and rest or relax from work and stress.

my parents

After my beautiful experience with my siblings, parents and loved ones i decided to make plans for my travel this year christmas to my home town in Ogwa . I am from the eastern part of Nigeria, precisely imo state. And that is where i will be travelling to this year. The bond between my parents, my siblings and i was really recandled last year and i wont want to miss such experience so that is why i will be travelling back there to spend quality time with my family.

my elder brothers

All my siblings stay in different cities, and they would all be coming back to my home town Ogwa for christmas so i would like to see them again since that is the only opportunity that brings us together in a place.

In my village Ogwa we have a very big house that can take all my siblings including their wives and children. It more like a family house, it has several rooms too. We cook and eat together having fun and telling stories about our childhood. Its always a time of fun.

Normally i would love to travel by air which means i need to book my flight ticket and pay. But sometimes i travel by land using a particular transport company that is good. Travelling by land to my home town from the city where i live takes nothing less than 14 hours while by air it takes 1:30 minutes. So once its getting to the month of september, the price everything increases including flight tickets and transport by land. If am going by air I have plans to buy my transport ticket once July. But by land, you can not book your travel ticket for that long over here in my country so once its one week before my travel i can actually book it.

two cousins i met for the first time

I would love to stay indoors with my family when i travel, we would gist, eat, see movies together. This is the main reason for my travelling so i would not want to spoil it for any reason. The only time i would go out is if i have an occasion to attend in the village but if none we would be indoors. We would play games, eat, drink, take pictures, tell stories and maybe go to farm if need be.

my nieces and i

Last year i met some cousins of mine for the very first time in my life. I didnt know they existed, this year they will be coming over to my village for the christmas holiday.

I plan to go to the market for shopping before i travel to my hometown this year. I would shop for my little nieces and nephews i plan to also shop for my parents too. My parents are very important to me and i would not trade them for anything in the world. Last year i bought things for them and they were so happy and i was really glad i bought those items. This year i would do better.

Travelling by land to my hometown by land will cost me about 20,000 naira to go which is about 100 steem while by air will cost me about 60,000 naira which is about 300 steem
I am already making some savings for that. I will be spending atleast a week in my hometown with my family and i know it will be a memorable one.

Last year, when i came back from my home town, everyone said i looked so fine and fresh. They said the weather in my village is good for my skin. Infact some friends, said i added some weight and i think i like it, so i cant wait to be fresh, fine and put some weight again. Take a look at me while in my home town last year and tell me what you think?

I and my younger brother

Currently i live in the city of lagos in the western part of Nigeria and i will be travelling to the eastern part of Nigeria my home town which is Ogwa found in the local government called mbaitoli for my Christmas holiday. Spending time with my friends and family is what i love most, and this christmas holiday is a good time for me.

I hope you enjoyed reading?
