This thread is really interesting, though I don't have the opportunity to travel out yet but when I wish to travel the information here can guide me. I really want to experience life outside Nigeria. Let me start working on my savings though.







I particularly wanted to hear gist about a certain country but I have not heard, I thought our members were worldwide? Someone help me tell Explorers I have not heard from him in ages. I hope all is well?
Which country were you expecting to get more info on ?

Lol! Most are them are radicals, and sometimes racists. But I came to this place via the help of a core believer of Confederacy..
They treated fine, got me introduced to how things worked out here. Thru them I got to know the person I'm planning to marry. I lived in Jackson at first before moving to Hattiesburg. Life in the South is sweet tho not like life in the North!
One thing I noticed when I arrived was that they spoke English similar to the British English.
No nah... southern drawl is not close to british English grin

Boy o boy, south scares me.. and the sun is too damn hot for me. I was in Oklahoma in June. Shît, the sun there was too hot. I drove from Michigan, I just didn't like the scene I came across, in Missouri, Arkansas etc.. every place seen to be oozing poor poor with Confederate flags flying everywhere, people proudly mounting it in their F150. Nah nah, no thank you grin grin

Well I live in the Southend of Amelika, Mississippi (A whole lot of people who adore the Confederate flag) to be precise. Bro it's not expensive here in Mississippi due to how poor the State is compared to most 'Yankee' States. My journey out of Nigeria started here on Nairaland!

To cut it short. Nigeria has no future!

To add to it, I'd be getting married soon. By January!
Right now I'm thinking of how to move my entire village to this place.
Mississippi ? anyone flying the Confederate flag scares me grin but I took my family to Biloxi back in July. Nice place but I dont plan on ever living down south ( maybe Texas).

It's all good tho

Want to do my postgraduate in pharmacy.

Thinking of Canada, Aussie or US.

You've well spent good time in three of them.

How can you assess them on cost of living, job availability, standard of living, ability to find pharmacy jobs, hot chicks, racism.
Pharmacy is a hot job regardless of the country you reside( maybe except Nigeria...lol).

In the U.S licensure varies by state. So you pick out the state you want to domicile and check out the website of their pharmacy board. Salary wise, it varies depending on the industry you want to dive in.

A friend once told me that Walgreens start their pharmacist at 80k and this was like in 2014 I believe.

And the salary will be similar between Canada, Australia and the U.S.

Cost of living, it depends on where you decide to stay, in the U.S, west coast and East coast have higher cost of living.

I find Canada to be expensive tho, their taxes are too high for my liking but I am reliably informed that their high taxes are needed because of their single payer healthcare system. But living in the U.S and visiting Canada, I grumble anytime I am purchasing sth.

Maybe I would enjoy Canada better if I was a Canadian or a resident because I would enjoy the amenities provided with the higher taxes.

I like Australia, it seems cool and the politics is not deeply divided like in the U.S (in my view) and Australia dollar is Higher than both canadian and American dollar.

As for Chicks, every country have both good, bad and ugly and remember beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

One more thing, if you plan going to Quebec or Montreal... Berra learn french. It will come in handy.

Australia, things are a bit expensive as well, remember Australia is in it's own continent surrounded by smaller countries, the biggest neighbor by GDP is New Zealand.
Travel › Re: Share Your Experience Of Life Outside Nigeria. by Badgers14: 10:02pm On Sep 30, 2018
U.S here, lived in Canada for a while and visited Australia, Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

They are all similar but if I have my way.. I will pick Australia ahead of the 3.

One thing that is common in this 3 dollar countries. Life is easier for you when you have a permanent residence or a citizen.

Also, Stay focused and work hard. Lot of times your success depends on who you stayed with when you arrived,( like your host. )

If they are good and honest, they will show the ropes , what to do etc.

And, make sure you know how to drive and get your own car.

In the U.S especially, everyone is striving for their independence. U.S is not Europe where many people dont fancy/or dont know how to drive and live like 5 in one apartment.

Not in the U.S , no one wants their privacy to be invaded, no one wants you to inconvenience them.. so dont expect to stay in someone's house for more than 3 months unless they are your parents or close blood relatives.. even at that before 3 months is up.. Berra find your own place and get yourself a car.

Thats not a turn off sister. You are allergic to perfume, not a bad thing though.

This is one of the reasons why in some government office buildings in the U.S, they have a no perfume policy because some people are allergic.

Why the guy no tear slap give the white guy na only the black guy hin seehuh

Anyways, this is all coming from the śhitty Nigerian government. The government dont care about the masses why should foreign entities respect Nigerianshuh

Before you quote me, have you ever worked for Indian, Chinese Lebanese bosshuh Too condescending set of people, they do whatever they can and get away with it because our dear government don't care.

There are regulations in place for delayed flight, flight delayed for 7 hours, the airline gotta compensate them.

The difference between China and Nepal is that : China will turn it to one of the most suitable and motorable road in the world. while Nepal will ply it like that.

You are right.. I dunno why he didn't make it this far.

Mehn... we have all these fine players but Messi and C Ronaldo keep winning all the time. I am just sick of that, fresh breeze please, we need new face
Sports › Re: FIFA World Player Of The Year To Be Announced Today by Badgers14: 6:58am On Sep 24, 2018
Luka Modric has my vote. He was phenomenal both for country and club.

Maybe from a biased point of view because I am tired of seeing Ronaldo and Messi win all the time. It is becoming boring.

There are other hardworking footballers out there you know grin

The woman for adopt the baby... claiming a biological relationship when there's a sure way to determine if it is true or not was not a smart idea.. and moreover village people might work over time and tip swedish officials who would conduct DNA test to confirm.

The best route would have been to adopt the child and get everything right from the get go. For immigration purpose (at least), biological child and adopted child are treated same.
