Please how did this go? Sorry I have been off touch from here for a while....Someone informed me of challenges with getting RP directly from Nigeria, he was so emotional and told me that people should be aware of this fact

It's been a while.. Hope you are good??

Thanks for checking on me man...Been get some challenges for my workplace, but thank God for our relentless spirit, God has re-positioned the lion again! so I am back and stronger!!

Inasmuch as I do not support corruption, I can tell you that whites are very jealous of successful black people and will do everything possible to pull you down..! Besides wealth, if you even look taller, more handsome, maybe bigger in size, some act differently, I recall in my local gym here in Finland when a Finnish guy ”jokingly” told me to stop coming to the gym to show off my muscles etc... I knew he was serious, but wanted to be as polite as possible... These guys do not know how many years, through blood and sand I have built my physique...

Thanks so much for the explicit and brooding response..
If I'm to come in as a student, how do I go about it. What level can I start from with my HND certificate and what does getting a student visa entail,??

Try and get a Bsc, so you can either go for your masters or then another Bsc at best...If I’m correct, HND’s aren’t recognized in Finland as an admission tool to get a study place, someone can authenticate this anyway...Visit StudyFinland portal and get more info, you can also mail them or call them directly...all your questions will get answers directly from the source

Good day bro, thanks for the good work you've been doing on this thread...

Please how much do I need to get to Finland. I'm not coming in as a student though, will I be given visa? And how easy is it to get a job there.
Which other country can you suggest based on my low budget...

I am a very realistic person...Getting a tourist visa is tough for Nigerians at the moment into the Schengen territory, unless your net worth and assets are absolutely massive that they cannot just deny you...Truth be say Naija don cast...Many people now go to B list countries and hustle small, then fall in the Schengen zone...You dig? I have guys here that have come from Cyprus, Turkey, Romania etc...Consider these, unless your assets and net worth in Naija are so obvious and undeniable...At least they will want to see a massive cash inflow and outflow of well over 5M Naira or a little less, with properties in choice areas of Abj and Lag etc...then they can respond.....Now, to get a job here, is not very easy cos of Language skills, that is why many people who do not speak it do menial jobs etc, which can easily be gotten in bigger cities...For your last questions, check the countries I cited as examples above...


Stay blessed!

If you’re from a rich home or have a wealthy sponsor, you better choose to migrate to those big countries of America, Canada, Australia and the likes over Finland oh....Those countries are way better for hustlers oh..Only consider here when those countries are not accessible by you, I have never seen anyone that they gave sugar and he spat it out


A word is enough for the wise

I see someone trying to bring in a debate even with my no partial analysis, you are still saying the same thing I have said.

So, no one should not go to Estonia simply because they are coming abroad for money? Remember that, fingers are not equal, likewise each everyone's luck. You start from somewhere, I know lots of guys in Estonia that have moved to Finland after their studies. I was only trying to say the good part of Estonia too, just to encourage our brothers that they should not put all their eggs inside one basket. For instance, transportation is totally free for the residents of Tallinn which is one of its kind in Europe and the world generally. Hearing this could actually make someone fall in love ..

Of course, the minimum wage cannot be compared to Finland because Finland is a big brother , but information is power, let me tell you, I still know some guys earning above 2k in office (IT job) in Estonia, as well as some guys earning almost 3k with no office job. In Finland you could earn more than this but you and I know that the above figure has little or no difference to what you basically earn in Finland. Please get it, Finland is better! But I believe all info here is to make everyone cut their clothes according to their sizes. Afterall, I'm sure everyone will reach their destination one day.


Job weldone bro.... Cheers!

Lol thanks....Finally, person wey dey Estonia is just 50euros boat cruise away from Finland....Well done!

iamboladee:

Yeah boss.. How e dey be for that side??

Fine fine....Summer things oh, although it’s no longer as warm as it used to be, by next month na ashawo go change style for us na as per winter things

You are not restricted to any working hours in Estonia, no limitations so far it doesn't affect your education. So, students do lots of hours to earn more.

Many blacks work in office in Estonia, working with multinational companies like APL, Arvato, Verif, TransferWise, Taxify, Wolts, DPD, ABB, Myjar, Monese, and more while some other students work in Bakery, Hotels, Laundry. It's very hard to seeing International students without any reasonable thing doing to make a living.

In Finland, it's rare to seeing black people working in offices like in Estonia, but your journey towards citizenship and amount of money you earn in Finland is better than Estonia. Day to day activities is easier in Estonia because of the technology compare to Finland. While both countries are tech savvy, Finland is more manual and to me, it's a little bit stressful compare to Estonia. If you have experienced both countries, you will know that, there is little or no difference in buying raw food stuffs in both places, especially if you are buying food from Lidl in Finland, you can actually compare that to Estonia. Meat is generally cheaper in Estonia, as well as buying fast food from the restaurant compare to Finland.

If you don't have huge money to put inside your account for Finland, Estonia is better as your chances of getting visa is high. But again, they don't have embassy in Nigeria. Ain't an excuse anyway because many Nigerian students have scaled through the hurdle.

To others, if anyone of you have access to Poland, Hungary, or Portugal, please go for it. We all have different budget and fingers are not equal. Don't be afraid that your life will be worst in the so called "second class European countries" but be happy that your life will start to getting better. These countries are ×5 better than Nigeria, and actually a stepping stone to greatness. Someone says Poland is cold, anyway, that's not actually a cold compare to Norway, Finland, Sweden, and Estonia. If that is your fear, then the Northern Europe ain't for you.

To be frank, more than 50% International students in Europe (Non-English speaking countries) are aspiring to relocate to English speaking countries. You are restricted to some opportunities because of language, but this is not what you can be scared of as many guys are really making it based on hard work and determination. Combining studies with work is not easy, but I bet you it is 100% doable.

I wish everyone all the best!
Nice one.encouraging

Nice analysis there! Thanks....Most migrants like us are here to hustle and make money as we have dependents back home in Naija, Estonia remains a place where Finns and residents go to chill and buy cheaper beer, and their minimum wage is nothing to right home about, lots of Estonians are hustling here with us in Finland, Finland remains an elder brother to them...But they are progressing massively and like you pointed out, they are an ”eCountry” sort of

How una dey my people? Omor hustle tie me down since oh..what’s the update?
