U serious I dont believe you!

OMG!!! Thats like sooooooooooooooo. . .

@Magz,
You folks are damn fortunate to live in such neihgbourhood, we only see such places when we travel.

@Gabry,
Are you shocked? Then what about this?

That is what you think, I think that you are fortunate to be able to live in Nigeria. I grew up here ignorant of my own language and culture, and now I am trying to learn and catch up as an adult. And besides, NY (and all America pretty much) is a land of glutons and fools. People have no morals. I'd much rather be somewhere in my Fatherland!

Like they say though, the grass is always greener on the other side,

Magz:

yes i agree with you, to an extent, bro

LOL if only we could switch,

I dont think I like living in both of your worlds. One is too way back for my liking and one is too vendalize for my liking. . .

But if I show you my hood, maybe you both wont like it either.

The First picture:

The white one is the half of my house and the back is actually a Yard my father build using thrown away scrapings when we were really poor before. Now my father repainted that yard and he  was blessed to even built it cause now when my father does his business and buys used materials, he could store it there.

We are bless to get this amount of land because our grandfather bought it at a very cheap price from the japanese during World War 2 and since thn the land belongs to us.  and right now if we are to sell the land, i will cost almost USD800,000.00

The Second picture:

is my aunt's house (My father's eldest sister) That house was made in the year 1960 and it belomngs to my grandparents and after my grandparent had pass away, my aunt took charge of the house and rennovates it to be more proper. She rents room to those whom wanted to have a feel of the local house.

Ohhh And that Dog is called Stallion. He is now the Head Security Caretaker in our neighbourhood. Theres a team of dogs there but the rest are sleeping. Only he is up looking at m taking pictures. All of the neighbours would fed any of the dogs if the dogs drop by to our houses. Like Stallion, after I took pictures, I gave him some meat loaf.

This one has two houses. The greyish one made with Zinc and the back one which is a White Concrete and blue roof. The Zinc one is for gardeners, maids, care takers to stay and the white blue one is for the Owner to stay. Thats my neighbours house, just a 10 secs walk there from my house

Here, my aunts house cause u cannot see it from that angle above.

The road side to my house and Neighbourhood

Gabry, I want to come and visit you.

Magz:

Gabry, I want to come and visit you.

Haha! Why? U like simple homs like that?

Looks like a good place to chill and relax

Yes naaa. Its one of the most relazing places which ive evr live in my entire life! Ive been to Switzerland and the UK and Arab and China, India, Nepal, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and etc etc etc and nothing can beat my birth town.

but it will be different if you dont like beaches cause its an island. Just opposite my house is the beach

You live in a pseudo-paradise, complete with nearby beaches and all?

I'm there. Please have a room ready for me in the guest house!

hahaha! i thought City guys dont like the island   

yeap, Its surrounded by Beaches! Cause I live in the island.Hardly you can find any tall buildings here and hardly anyone stays in a condominium. Maybe a flat but not many. . But stuff here are bloody expensive except alcohol, ciggarettes, chocolate and car.

hahaha! U are not serious 

Magz
