Ways to share folders from Mac Hosthost to Mojave Guestguest on VirtualboxVirtualBox (using NFS Manager or other options)?

I have a Yosemite Hosthost and Mojave Guestguest VM via Virtualbox. I want to share the Host'shost's folders with the Guestguest.I'm I'm aware there are at least three ways but I haven't been successful with any of them. I'm not an expert and it took a while just to get Mojave as a guest on Yosemite after several failed attempts with Parallels 10. The three ways I'm aware of are:

Guest Aditions: I've installed Guest Additions and I've added directories in the Virtuabox's "Shared Folder" settings. However, I can't seem to find the shared folders in Finder in Mojave - they should just show up under a shared network file no?
NFS Manager (https://www.bresink.com/osx/NFSManager.html)
or setup a Mac server by configuring mac settings via the file sharing section.

Which is the best/easiest way (from the above or from other ways) and is there a video/step-by-step guide about it?
