Top 5 Favorite Things I Take Traveling (especially if I need to work)

Image
Back in 2018, (which somehow feels like AGES ago...), I was preparing to travel to Russia for a week and then heading to India for two and a half weeks after that, so I spent so serious time doing research to ensure I was prepared for ANYTHING! As I was reading, I kept finding that it was fairly common for Americans to be pick-pocketed in Russia, and frankly, I ain't got time for that! I usually don't carry a large purse or anything (a wristlet at the max), but I needed to be able to carry my documents with me at all times (apparently getting in trouble with the police there if you don't have your documents is not uncommon either) and the more research I did, the more I thought of things to carry with me so a wristlet wasn't going to cut it and let's face it, cargo pants are not the answer either. So I searched and searched and found this... Which brings us to... #1 The Backpack/Purse Waterproof Nylon Anti-theft Lightweight Shoulder Bag This is P...

What is VIPKID? How much can you make? VIPKid Pros and Cons?

Image
VIPKid... VIPKid... VIPKid... Okay, so you might have heard of VIPKid by now since they have been named one of the Top 50 Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company and Top 100 Remote Work Companies by Forbes. But what IS VIPKid?       VIPKid is a company that has created an online platform for teachers to teach ESL (English as a Second Language) to kids in China. They also create all of the lessons and do all of the marketing to get the kids enrolled in the lessons. How old are the children?      The children are usually between ages 4-12 and can range from absolutely no English knowledge (and have never seen any other race but their own) to being able to hold a full conversation with you like your talking to your best friend! What are the requirements?      You do need to have at least Bachelor's degree in ANY field, be eligible to work in the U.S. or Canada, be a Native English speaker, and have at least 1 year of teac...

Teach English as long as you have good Internet? My VIPKID Journey

Image
How would you like to work from wherever you wanted as long as you had a good internet connection? How would that change your life? How would that feel? Pretty awesome, right? I think so, and I've been doing it for almost 2 years now! My only regret is not doing it sooner! In late 2016, I decided to quit my job. I was tired of working long hours, having little to no control of my schedule #worktakespriority #nolife, and feeling like I was just treading water #goingnowhere. Originally when I went to college, I wasn't really sure what I wanted to do. I was interested in wayyyy too many things. Finally, after already completing my Associates Degree, and finishing some undergrad classes, I decided that I wanted to switch my major and focus on business and computer science with the goal of starting my own business. So I finished my Bachelor's degree. YAY! 🎉😄👍 Graduated. And got a promotion to management at the J.O.B. that I had been working ...

Is Kidazzler a scam? Opportunity to make reoccurring monthly income....

Image
A few days ago I stumbled upon a new "up and coming" app called Kidazzler . And after reading a little about the concept, I was VERY INTRIGUED .    Sign up for Kidazzler now!      Kidazzler is an app that is in the final stages of development before its official release to the public. Their goal is to be the largest directory of business for kids (like indoor trampoline parks, pediatricians, day cares, birthday party places, etc.) Well, in order to do that and to already have tons of businesses in their directory when they launch, they need OUR help! Kidazzler plans on launching in April 2019 (so this opportunity could quickly pass you by of you don't jump on it now). Okay, so what do they want us to do? Add businesses that you know of in your area that are great for kids! All you need to add is: Business Name Phone Number Address (if it is a physical location) Email Address* Website* *These last two are not required, but th...
