i felt like i was in heaven...




...the silence and the cold winds.
the views upon landing...the night lights.


travelling outside Nigeria, Africa is an experience everyone must experience otherwise you have lived a half life.

living in Nigeria you feel this is it, e nor pass like this UNTIL YOU FLY OVERSEAS, A NEW JOURNEY JUST BEGINS ITSELF

u will feel a breath of fresh air when u leave naija

the only thing i am missing here is just eba and egusi soup

chai, i just finished one

It was one of the best days of my life.. 3rd January 2017... Was a 13 hours Delta Airlines direct flight from Murtala Mohammed Intl Airport, Lagos to Hartsfield Jackson Intl Airport, Atlanta Georgia... Thanks to God for the Mercy..

UK at about the age of 22 for a visit. In high school, lots of my friends used to travel so I had built up this longing to visit the UK. Every moment from the point we entered UK airspace at about 5:30 am on a slightly drizzly day was special to me. i kept looking around, trying to see if I would feel any different, and I sort of did. The cold, the buildings, the food smelled great but tasted bland, played some football. Checking out the white girls. It was nice.

Loved every minute of it, including the return trip home.

I look back and realise my country Nigeria is a joke.

hmm how does mexican food taste? ..there some food here similar to naija food like rice,beans,tomatoes and these were the type of meals i was eating when in naija.the only things i dont get here are akara,egusi soup and pounded yam

tomatoes originated from Mexico, Portuguese brought cassava cocoa avocado from south America to nigeria

I felt fine.... see JAMB question oooo

The first day I traveled OUTSIDE the country to Ijebu Ode,

Women don't wear

I asked one girl the same thing, and she said to me "my dear I was too young to know. U see I’m from Edo state and we start flying at a young age!"

Psych!!

Potatochips:
It was exciting really. Before I boarded, some immigration officers wanted to play smart, thank God, I had all my docs with me. After entering the plane, I couldn't locate my seat, lol. I later did sha. When I arrived at my destination (a country in Europe), I was flabbergasted by the high number of white people around me. Shuo, no be small thing oh. The place was cold, beautiful and colorful all at the same time. It was like a dream. Totally different from Naija. But now I don't notice the difference anymore.

Hmmmm. You don't notice d differences anymore... Hmmm dere iz a fish inside dix ur story :/

DMerciful:
I felt wowed by what other countries have built and I was looking for people with two heads who built these infrastructures. I couldn't see any two-headed people and I wonder why our case was different. When I came back especially at MMA, I was depressed! Since then I have been to all the continents except Australia and South America. Currently in North America!

Wow. Oh God pick my call

It was soo nice the weather was very cold
Currently in the U.S

It was on the 31st December 2011 when I travelled to the UK it was like a dream to me �.on arrival ,my cousin came to Newcastle airport to pick me so on our way he got some snacks for me he dropped me at home and left for work.when i was alone in the house thsts how I was looking through the window and smiling like an idiot I was like chaii see obodo Oyibo o.for like three days I couldn't eat .......to be continued

Lmaooooo

Its a wonderful experience really , especially when you're sponsoring yourself
I had so many thoughts on my head walahi
1. Na me sit down inside aeroplane so ?
2. Na me they use my money fly to obodo oyibo?
3. When will I see my family again?
4. I must not come back without Benz
When I landed omg , I realised that coronavirus cannot even kill us I Nigeria cuz we live in a bedgraggled environment in naija

Abroad sweet abeg, everywhere clean
Hit me up for your sure visas to all European countries
There's also a sure Canada visa application going on
No scam zone

iLegendd:
I said to myself, "Now I understand why these people are ahead and don't carry religion on their head, but technology."

The entire country was tiled and it looked like a paradise. Anyway, I cried when I recalled the type of dirty zinc I saw when the plane lifted at Lagos airport and the ones I saw in the new country.
Shame! Angry!

how can a whole country be tiled?

It was towards the end of the year for just 2weeks holiday in UK, it was really really cold unlike Nigeria hot weather(its a long time ago, not sure I can remember much of it).

The kain lie some people dey lie for here eh

The day I was coming back from Austria after living there for 6 years as the plane was landing I saw lagos street with street lights very beautiful is only when the plane was very close to touch the ground that I discovered that what I was calling street lights was actually cars and buses on lagos goslow,naija no fine from air biko,if yor see northern Nigeria from plane you will think your in somalia

I refused to eat alots of meals and drink served in the plane, while the man seating right to me was busy taking red wine and other beverages,all my mind was at the destination am heading to.But during my second tripe hmmmm....i made sure drink every drinkable and even bought extra beer and wine hahahaha... But I used to be angry once am entering Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport Abuja bcuz everywhere will be full of dust and bushes..even when returning to nija last November I saw alots of cow when the flight was around 800 to 1000 feet above the ground... But it was really fun.How wish 60% of our youth can live nija to some European countries, I swear if they all come back to nija they will all be ready to fight bad leadership that is eating the country up.

So I travelled to the US for the first time Via turkey. When I was at MM airport one of the security personnel actually walked up to me and I guess she saw the excitement on my face. She asked "I can see how happy you are". Who wouldn't be happy. Prior to the trip I didn't sleep for 2 days just praying for the time to run faster��

Just here to read comments, because I never go Lagos not to talk of abroad.

When I travel abroad I felt ......

Will modify the post when I finally arrive

Cold, I swear guys nothing can prepare you for how cold the UK is. Then I was astounded by the constant bright lights that never went out, clean environment, sane drivers and the smell of fast food and cigarettes in the air. Like everything just works you know.

The TV there was also better than at home, all the stations were in season 3 while Nigeria was in season 1.

White people can look so strange up close, even today I tend to stare and get anxious around white people like I'm in danger or something. But they are friendly, sometimes too friendly.

I was also glad that most people could finally understand me when I talk.

The plane ride was also fun, the part I always look forward to when travelling.
