Hello Everybody
How are you doing?
I´m new to this forum and I´ll be totally new to Nigeria by the end of the next week.
So, the thing is that I´m coming and have no clue what to do there. I know absolutely nothing about the Place where I`ll stay and even less about what expects me there.

I hope that this forum is SCAM-FREE and I´ll not make bad experiences but hopefully there will be someone who would like to show me around a little bit and has a good heart.

So, I ´ll stay in Lagos for one month but it is not said that I´ll stay there all the time, maybe I´ll find something to travel around and visit the elephants or see crocodiles,

I also like good Reggae music, all kinds of that like dancehall and roots and ragga and whatever and I´am also a Spanish Freak but this is more out of topic here.

Respond to the post quickly.

Best regards,
Arturo, el Rey

What I forgot to add is that I would also like to try the Nigerian Cousine and get to know a lot about the culture, and buy a lot of stuff for my people here to remind them of my best trip ever.

You are probably not Nigerian. yeah?
Anyway do you have hosts? I mean like a nigerian family or friends you'll be staying with? You dont want a random stranger taking you around. What did you really mean about this forum being scam free?  

You will have fun. Nigeria is a peculiar place but with warm people. Food is good too. (at least to my palate!)

Yeah, actually I have a Nigerian family where I will stay but it would be ok to find someone to make friends and talk, and I´ll probably hear the comment "Your are not Nigerian" more often than I expect. But this is how you learn the country.

I already travelled a lot around the americas and Europe so now its time to see little bit of Africa

@buzo1984
your not serious how can you come to a country where u don't have any family, friends or relatives? When u leave the airport where are u going to put up?

where are you going buy food to eat, be careful about the water you drink here,

who's going to take u out

i would even leave england and go to ghana if i fon't have any friend there talkless of a white european going to africa for the first time

are u related to your nigerian family? How did u get to know them?

Yeah, I know that this is a risky venture but this is how it came. I should be travelling with my Cousin (Nigerian) but he unexpectetly jumped off and now I´ll be there, without him but will stay with his family

so he's your cousin not your inlaw?

is husband of my sister

exactly what i was thinking so how long have they been mariied?

and has your sister been to nigeria before?

They are married for about 9 years now and have two kids, one has been born just one week ago and thats why he is not coming with me

it would have been good if all of you could come together. But i guess you have never met any of your inlaws in the flesh before?

The nigerian family should take crae of you. do they have kids your age for you to hang out with?

@spoilt
i don't think so Buzo1984 is not a small boy checkout his profile

I hope so that there will be someone in the family who will show me around and hang out a bit with me but, I don´t know.
Maybe my french friend who is working in Lagos can pick me up, If not I will have to hope that someone from the nigerian family will pick me up, when its done, I´ll make my way to do the journey

enjoy your stay

Buzo1984 call your people in nigeria let them know when your coming and make sure that they have someone ready to pick u up coz thats very important plus all the necessary arrangements for your sight seeing etc

Ok guys, now is nothing to worry about, I´ll be in Abuja most of the time.
Regards to you and thank for your assistance

If there is someone in Abuja and wants to do something on the weekend,, give me a short message on hotmail.

Regards again. Artur

I got into this your Nigeria trip issue a little late, but let me see what i can do for you. I am into tourism so i think i can be of help to you. Firstly, like everybody has been saying ,you need where to stay so that you will have a base to operate from.I live in Lekki, on the Island. And there are lots and lots of interesting places that i can show you. what will happen is once you hit Lagos send a post here and i will volunteer to give you a nice time within Nigeria. If you do not have any place to stay, let me know so that i can make a couple of arrangement and see what could be made available for you.

Cheers.
