Christmas In Port-Harcourt: My Activities Line Up

Bole Hunt

Personally, I think this is the best part of living in the south. It is so good that a whole festival is dedicated to it every year- Bole Festival and nobody does it better than Port-Harcourt.

I am looking forward to having some roasted yam, plantain, fish and utazi sauce…definitely having this tomorrow.

Movies

Christmas In Port-Harcourt, hell, Christmas anywhere isn’t complete without going to the movies and I have waited for this week for months now because I get to do it with my favourite girls- my sisters!

My must-watch movies this period are Wonder Woman and Kambilii: The Whole 30 Yards

Christmas Shopping

For me, shopping never stops and it skyrockets during festive periods. So, Christmas being my favourite season, it is only normal my addiction is tripled. And since it doesn’t look like my parents care enough to buy me even a slipper, I intend visiting shops and malls to get presents for my family, friends and lover.

Pleasure Park

I remember the first time I saw the Pleasure Park on Aba road, it looked so gorgeous and I have wanted to visit since then. This holiday seems like the perfect time to do just that.

My sisters have been and they swear it is a fun sight. Tickets are sold at the gate before entry, games are paid for individually and there are restaurants in the park as well.

Christmas In Port-Harcourt is only certified when you visit Pleasure Park.

Ice Cream Date

For the next week, I plan on making at least one new friend so we could have an ice cream date…I mean, it would be nice to have other plans that do not include my sisters and I think this is just perfect.

Since Cold Stone and a few others are in Port-Harcourt, I would be trying them out.

…maybe a review would come in handy? Check out my review on Farm City restaurant here: https://goldgerry.com/2020/09/20/review-my-farm-city-experience/

Pizza And Shawarma Hunt

There is nothing I like more than a good ole food contest.

My activities line up most definitely comes with visiting the hottest pizza and shawarma spots in Port-Harcourt. I would love to have an opinion on the most talked about pizza’s and shawarma in my city.

I’d be comparing Pizza’s from Pizzamore Italian Restaurant, Kilimanjaro, Salami Pizza and Pizza Jungle. Do you have spots you’d like for me to try? Please leave a comment below.

So far so good, as these are as many activities I would like to get into and I would love it if you could keep up with me by subscribing to my Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJjwgIX5eEU_Tk0QOTVkMyQ

Thank you so much for reading, and have a beautiful holiday.

Love,

I remember so vividly the day I opened my first blog. It was at a cafe, big white computers with dirty keyboards and I had paid N100 for an hour time. Getting that notification “Congratulations! Your Blog Is Ready” made my entire year and it was December 30th, 2014, so imagine that.

Blogspot was the first platform I started with before moving onto WordPress in 2017. Blogging has always been a way for me to express myself and get away from my head/feelings. I needed so badly to vent and talk to someone without having to talk to anyone in particular, so it was perfect.

Over the years, blogging has become so much more for me. It has become a huge part of my humblebrag as it has helped me get a lot of jobs and opportunities I normally wouldn’t have gotten. In plain terms, it has helped in my journey of self-discovery.

Read more on my background and how I got started https://goldgerry.com/2018/03/26/new-blogfirst-post/

I have had other Writers/Creatives showcase their work on my blog and even more importantly helped some people through difficult times and I couldn’t be happier.

And today, it is with joy in my heart that I welcome you to my new phase. Gold Gerry’s Blog has gone from goldgerry.blogspot.com to goldgerryblog.wordpress.com and now to goldgerry.com and at every change/upgrade, you have been there so this is also about you my readers turn family.

So cheers to finally having a permanent domain registered and getting a hosting, a special thank you to my friend Kunle Alexander for helping me set all of this up.

Now that we have a few changes and upgrades, I want to let you know what to expect from me and what I’m looking forward to the most in this new chapter.

WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO

1. Consistency: At least two new posts every week

2. Collaborations: With brands and fellow creatives- writers, photographers, fashion designers

3. Growth: I had over 2000 visitors and readers before getting a domain and I’m hoping to increase that by 100% in 6 months

4. Creating Content: I am changing and I believe that my blog and content is reflecting that as well, so I’m looking forward to using my experience to create valuable content for you

WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT

1. An Extensive Category: If you check the category column it reads a short story, erotica, lifestyle, finance and relationship. I want to have these and maybe much more categories later as I intend to give a lot more of lifestyle content, so you get to know me more aside my sloppy love stories.

2. Consistency: At least two new posts every week on Gold Gerry

3. Collaborations: This is I am most excited about, so you would be seeing a lot of other contributors that I love their work and I think are helpful, some partnerships and product/service promotion(because I am well on my way to becoming an influencer).

4. More Social Topics: At the beginning of my blogging years I always used to wonder why I wasn’t getting engagements on my posts and then I realised it was because they were more of opinion pieces than conversational.

So, I changed that a bit and started getting likes and comments on my recent posts(turns out my readers like to talk as much as I do) and so, I would be sticking with that.

And that’s about it, I am mostly here to have fun with you guys and learn about life.

I love you so much for reading, thank you.

Go ahead and enjoy this lovely piece https://goldgerry.com/2020/08/05/god-when-maybe-youre-just-asking-wrong/

Love,

Gold.
