They lied. ⁣ They stole.⁣ They cheated people

They lied. ⁣
They stole.⁣
They cheated people out of their $$$⁣
⁣
Bookit.com, a 3rd-party booking engine, disappeared leaving their travel customers stranded overseas. [SWIPE LEFT]⁣
⁣
It’s unfortunate.⁣
⁣
Customers arrived at their destination to learn that Bookit had not paid their hotels or airport shuttles leaving them footing the bill. AGAIN!⁣
⁣
Now, what should you do:⁣
⁣
If you’re stranded?⁣
⁣
* If you’re in-country and are demanded to pay on the spot, pay! You don’t want to be locked up abroad. Right??!⁣
* Call your credit card company to file a claim and/or dispute any charges.⁣
⁣
Your booking is “prepaid”?⁣
⁣
* Confirm with your airline, hotel, and airport transportation company whether they’ve received payment. ⁣
* Ensure your trip is protected, including interruption or cancellation policies. [Insurance companies do not usually insure for pandemics.]⁣
* Call your credit card company to file a claim and/or dispute any charges.⁣
⁣
Before booking with a third-party booking engine?⁣
⁣
* Read the find print on the disclosure document [Specifically where it states that they have the right to change, cancel, or offer similar accommodations/service upon arrival]⁣
* Book directly with the airline, hotel, or airport shuttle ⁣
* Use a trusted and certified travel agent [They work directly with the supplier and will advocate on your behalf.]⁣
⁣
Share with anyone in this situation or have an upcoming trip. FYI: The US issued a Global Level 4 Health advisory on Thursday, which means DO NOT TRAVEL. Please be safe and stay up to date with my COVID-19 Resource Page [Link in Bio]⁣

Are you scared as sh*t of the coronavirus & wonder if you should cancel your summer vacay?⁣
⁣
[SAVE THIS POST]⁣
⁣
Before you cancel your trip because of the coronavirus, ask yourself these 5 questions:⁣
⁣
Am I traveling to China, Iran, Italy, South Korea or destinations with active health and travel advisories?⁣
How old am I? [Coronavirus affect older people at higher rates than younger ones]⁣
What is my level of personal hygiene? Do I regularly wash my hands? Touch my eyes, nose, or mouth after touching an object? [Mmhmm]⁣
Is my immune system compromised from a preexisting medical condition?⁣
And finally, have I ever cancelled a trip because of the flu? [Not to say you shouldn’t, but it puts things into perspective when you compare it to the “outrage” of the coronavirus.] ⁣
⁣
My first advice would be to breathe. This is still flu season, which means if the coronavirus don’t get us, then InFLUenza can.⁣
⁣
Be safe, my friends!⁣

Stare at this image & tell me what do you see…⁣
⁣
[Comment before reading on]⁣
⁣
I see: ⁣
⁣
Jenell, a black female college student & like many black women who “too often have been expected to be all things to all people & to speak everyone else’s position but [their] very own.“ (Audre Lorde)⁣
⁣
A young black woman who is searching out opportunities that was once forbidden & only existed for white people. ⁣
⁣
An educated black woman on her way to pursuing an international experience & will later secure her bachelor’s degree.⁣
⁣
BUT…⁣
⁣
That wasn’t always the case.⁣
⁣
Tracee Ellis Ross eloquently gave a powerful speech at the NAACP awards on Feb. 22nd stating that “We [Black Women] get to define ourselves, not through how others imagine us, but through how we see ourselves. Even if our truth makes you uncomfortable.”⁣
⁣
So what I see in this image is a woman, despite historical & sociocultural challenges from the arrival of the first slave ship to the Americas, through Jim Crow & the Civil Rights Movement, smiling in the face of oppression, sexism, & being labeled as “Other.”⁣
⁣
Jenell is “part of this ever-growing chorus of Black women owning our own legacies.”⁣
⁣
And, you, the person reading the caption, can help Jenell & so many other black female college students reach their dreams, including seeing the world.⁣
⁣
If you’re a black mother, aunt, father, cousin, sister, brother reading this caption, purchase a copy of “Studying Abroad for Black Women” for your daughter, niece, sister, or favorite cousin. Let’s redefine what travel looks like because students like Jenell want to study abroad & travel too.⁣
⁣
If you’re an ally, please tag a black woman who would benefit from this message & also book.⁣

“Sexual exploitation of Ugandan girls below 16 y

“Sexual exploitation of Ugandan girls below 16 years and teenage pregnancy are at 34% and 29% respectively.” - Issac Lufafa, Founder of @Tusubira_Village.⁣
⁣
Isaac protects young girls from gender-based violence through empowerment programs - raising their self-esteem, teaching them life skills and resistance against male-gender prejudice.⁣
⁣
The work doesn’t stop with the young girls, but it also begins with mentoring young boys to embrace gender equality too. ⁣
⁣
I dedicate this post to Isaac, his wife and team, and the girls and boys who are fighting for equality every day. ⁣
⁣
And, if you ARE curious Isaac’s work with @tusubira_village, please follow them for updates about their projects, mission, and certainly how you can help! Also, learn more about how you can volunteer from home [Link in Bio]⁣

What Would Kobe Do (WWKD)?⁣ ⁣ [For all my Kobe

What Would Kobe Do (WWKD)?⁣
⁣
[For all my Kobe fans out there]⁣
⁣
It’s been nearly a month since the shocking death of Kobe Bryant and the eight other helicopter passengers including his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna.⁣
⁣
Even two months into the New Year, it’s clear that when we plan, God laughs.⁣
⁣
But, what do we do?⁣
⁣
Welp, the one question I began asking myself is “What Would Kobe Do?”⁣
⁣
Despite the tears and shock, this question helps me realize that it wouldn’t be healthy to sit in pain and sadness. What good would that do? ⁣
⁣
Instead, I’ve decided to follow in his footsteps: “to move forward [and] reflect with a purpose.” ⁣
⁣
Everyday, when we wake up, we have a choice: to live life to the fullest or to let life pass us by. ⁣
⁣
So, What Would Kobe Do?⁣
⁣
He would let this sadness, pain, or anger be his strength and motivation. And, you can do the same. ⁣
⁣
So, today’s message: Ask yourself “What Would Kobe Do?” if you’re feeling stuck, are undecided or fearful about anything in life.⁣
⁣
Kobe didn’t become a legend by thinking but by doing. I pray that you get to accomplish at least ONE goal today in the midst of fear, doubt, or concern about your ability. ⁣

Don’t Fear Failure. Fear being in the exact same

Don’t Fear Failure. Fear being in the exact same place next year you are today.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Four years ago, I had the pleasure of visiting Ecuador for a two-week volunteer trip. After my first week of volunteering, I was able to see more of Ecuador, including Quilotoa, the most western volcano in the Ecuadorian Andes. (swipe left)⁣⁣
⁣⁣
When I arrived, the touristy thing to do was to head down to the water-filled caldera to see the blue-green lake. A 280 meter hike taking 30-minutes to go down, and 1 to 2 hours to return.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Let 👏🏼 me 👏🏼 tell 👏🏼 y’all!! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I almost died on the side of that volcano. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I looked up to the Ecuadorian heavens and asked my father God for strength because I feared I wouldn’t make it back to the surface.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It was so steep that I kept slipping and tripping, especially while wearing water shoes. [Don’t ask-I’ll tell you later].⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Every time I looked up, all I saw was more dirt, sand, rocks, pain, and a long ways to go.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But I kept pushing. I kept stopping, yet I continued after catching my breath for a few minutes. No matter how many people were waltzing and gliding by me, I kept moving. Getting closer and closer to my goal, closer to what I was trying to achieve.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I look back now and know two things:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
*I will never ever do that again lol⁣⁣
*I learned my mind is stronger than my body. That fear is a mindset. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So today, remember where you were last year. And plan ahead to what you want to become a year from now.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
What do you see?⁣⁣
