NYSC can be one of the most challenging and opportunity-filled years of your life.
You’re posted far from home.
Your allowee disappears within days.
And everything costs more than it should.
But what if you could use that one year not just to serve — but to start stacking real cash?
At Justintime Travels Nigeria, we help people move, explore, and grow. So today, we’re not just talking travel. We’re helping you earn — even from your PPA.
Here are 10 Side Hustles you can start as a corps member — with almost no capital.
đź’» 1. Freelance Writing or Design
- CV writing
- Logo design
- Blog post writing
- Social media management
Tip: Offer free work to one or two clients to build samples.
📸 2. Photography / Videography
Got a good phone camera or DSLR? Cover birthdays, naming ceremonies, or even create passport photo services in your community.
đź§µ 3. Fashion or Bead Making
If you learned tailoring or beadwork, this is your time to shine. NYSC camps and LGAs are full of potential customers — fellow corps members included.
🛍️ 4. Thrift Resale (Okrika)
Source trendy thrift wear from Lagos, Aba, or Kano — then resell via WhatsApp status or at your PPA. You’d be shocked at how much corps members will pay for a good pair of sneakers.
🎨 5. Henna or Makeup Services
Especially great for female corps members. Start with one or two clients, take pictures, and grow through referrals.
📚 6. Lesson Teacher / WAEC Coaching
Offer after-school tutoring to students in your area. Even better? Help JAMB or WAEC candidates prep — their parents will pay for results.
🍛 7. Food Sales / Meal Prep
Sell snacks like chin-chin, puff puff, or small chops. Or offer Sunday meal delivery to fellow corps members who don’t want to cook.
💇🏾 8. Hair and Barbing Services
Mobile barbers and hairstylists are in huge demand — especially in rural areas. No salon? No problem. Offer home service.
đź§Ľ 9. Soap & Skincare Production
With some basic training, you can make black soap, lip balm, or body butter and sell to friends, markets, and even online.
✍️ 10. Grant Writing / NYSC PPA Proposal Help
Learn how to draft letters, business plans, or proposals — and charge a fee to help other corps members with theirs.
đź§ BONUS: Turn Your Side Hustle into Travel
You don’t have to wait till POP to travel. Use your earnings to:
- Take weekend getaways to nearby cities
- Book affordable NYSC group retreats
- Visit tourist spots near your PPA (Obudu, Erin Ijesha, Idanre Hills, etc.)
At Justintime Travels Nigeria, we support young Nigerians with flexible, budget-friendly trips — including NYSC camp-to-camp transportation, private group travel deals, and post-NYSC celebration packages.

Hi there.
jittravels.ng, Thanks for the time and heart you put into posting and moderating.
I recently published my ebooks and training videos on
https://www.hotelreceptionisttraining.com/
They feel like a rare find for anyone interested in hospitality management and tourism. These ebooks and videos have already been welcomed and found very useful by students in Russia, the USA, France, the UK, Australia, Spain, and Vietnam—helping learners and professionals strengthen their real hotel reception skills. I believe visitors and readers here might also find them practical and inspiring.
Unlike many resources that stay only on theory, this ebook and training video set is closely connected to today’s hotel business. It comes with full step-by-step training videos that guide learners through real front desk guest service situations—showing exactly how to welcome, assist, and serve hotel guests in a professional way. That’s what makes these materials special: they combine academic knowledge with real practice.
With respect to the owners of jittravels.ng who keep this platform alive, I kindly ask to share this small contribution. For readers and visitors, these skills and interview tips can truly help anyone interested in becoming a hotel receptionist prepare with confidence and secure a good job at hotels and resorts worldwide. If found suitable, I’d be grateful for it to remain here so it can reach those who need it.
Why These Ebooks and Training Videos Are Special
They uniquely combine academic pathways such as a bachelor of hospitality management or a advanced hotel management course with very practical guidance on the hotel front desk job duties. They also cover the hotel front desk receptionist job description, and detailed hotel front desk tasks.
The materials go further by explaining the reservation systems in hotels, check-in and check-out procedures, guest relations, and practical guest service recovery—covering nearly every situation that arises in the daily business of a front office operation.
Beyond theory, my ebooks and training videos connect the academic side of hospitality management studies with the real-life practice of hotel front desk duties.
– For students and readers: they bridge classroom study with career preparation, showing how hotel management certificate programs link directly to front desk skills.
– For professionals and community visitors: they support career growth through questions for reception interview, with step-by-step interview questions for receptionist with answers. There’s also guidance on writing a strong receptionist description for resume.
As someone who has taught hospitality management programs for nearly 30 years, I rarely see materials that balance the academic foundation with the day-to-day hotel front desk job responsibilities so effectively. This training not only teaches but also simulates real hotel reception challenges—making it as close to on-the-job learning as possible, while still providing structured guidance.
I hope the owners of jittravels.ng, and the readers/visitors of jittravels.ng, will support my ebooks and training videos so more people can access the information and gain the essential skills needed to become a professional hotel receptionist in any hotel or resort worldwide.
Wishing you continued success with your site—truly.
