ramalot: Both countries are nice, but very different.
Bangkok, Thailand can be a bit overwhelming and chaotic, if you have never been to South East Asia. It's a very vibrant city, with all kinds of people and tourists. Bangkok is one of the most visited places in the world, so you'll find all nationalities there. Though a ton of backpacker and hippie-types.
I spent 1 month in Bangkok, and nearly 4 months total in Thailand, on 3 different visits.
There are more relaxed cities, like Chiang Mai. And many cool beach towns. Places like Ao Nang, PhiPhi etc. Lots of interesting temples in the country.
The people are generally all right.
Colombia on the other hand has a great vibe. I prefer Spanish culture in general. The language, music and food are cool.
Cool cities like Medellin, with great weather year-round and some nice neighborhoods, like Poblado. Although, areas like that are a bit of a "tourist trap." You need to venture further out, to experience the true Colombia.
It's like visiting Nigeria for the first time, and only staying in Maitama, Abuja. You won't get a real sense of Nigeria.
Colombia also has some nice beach cities like Cartagena. Nice beaches and nearby islands. With an interesting walled city. Although, Cartagena has way too many prostitutes roaming the streets.
Overall, Colombia remains one of my favorites.

Bro nice thread you got. Your detailing everything with pictorial representation is unique.
Btw........ Medellin (That's Pablo Escobar town?) I hope those drug cartel and their errand kids don repent sha?

Tinubu built Lagos is a scam!
We don't care about all this nonsense anymore. Atiku/Okowa for President!
chrisxxx: Where will Atiku win this election? The fight now is the northern votes. The southern votes are settled. South South and South East go for Obi. South West for for Tinubu. All of them are scrambling for the northern votes. You don't know what is about hitting Atiku.
Oga south South votes is for Atiku/Okowa. This is presidential election not community chairmanship
miyagi01: Atiku go hear am. Its so idiotic for a Fulani man to finish 8years and another Fulani man wants to take over. Things notherners can never accept. And Okowa too that hosted the southern governors few months ago with the Asaba declaration that presidency must come to the south too as decided to play Fulani slave. So pitiful
If we should go by your logic, Peter Obi for President.
But logic n sentiments don't win election. Atiku till 2036
PrinceOfLagos: Forget the Nairaland noise on Tinubu.. He paid so much to launder his already soiled image through Nairaland . Tinubu is 86yrs old , senile and can't stand up right for one hour to save his life .
The yeye man even said he would continue from where buhari stopped and I consider that as a threat not only to my life but to the life of over 200million Nigerians
Bro leave Tinubu matter and send that beautiful girl message.
Make Una connect, I was actually feeling u both until u start insulting BAT. Although na my state governor I dey support.
If you value a good all-round restaurant experience, then you probably want to check out the 5 best-themed restaurants in Lagos Nigeria. Where would you be visiting this December?
Kapadoccia Lagos: Why book a flight this holiday when you can experience the beauty of the historic caves of Turkey in Lagos?

Pitstop: is Nigeria’s first fitness-themed restaurant, decorated with bicycles and bicycle parts and accessories. The Pitstop brand is set on promoting healthy collaboration with fitness enthusiasts. The restaurant advocates for a healthier lifestyle as evidenced by their menu, community of cyclists and runners, Wattbike studio membership, and bicycle store.
Alice Garden restaurant: offers a combination of a Chinese Fusion and Nigerian menu. The ambience is dreamy and fun and is the right place for you if you want to experience something different. Interestingly, it also shares owners with Hua Han. If you’re looking to enjoy a little airy-fairy-ness, take cute pics and get your bubble tea fix, this is the place.
AkProsper: The business will still strive. What I think will happen: 1. Agent will have multiple bank accounts to have access to multiple ATM. Some (POS agent) will rely on their close friends (siblings/spouse) to do same. NB: Some banks isuue just one ATM person even if you have more than 1 account with them.
2. Their charges will be higher.
Infact the business will boom as long as you can get raw cash.
Imagine site engr or contractor wanting to pay artisan or labourer.
How will they source for cash? Remember robbery will be much then.
Blessedmercy8: That's one thing I can't stand in a man, body odour. The annoying thing is that these men don't care. They'll just be going about without bathing.
I tire for Nigerian guys.
Earlier this year, a lady friend told him how he stinks. The guy go perfume that week. The guy doesn't like using good soap and sponge to wash body. He just believe in pouring water and going out. If this guy sweat, you will collapse.
Blessedmercy8: Now that sure roll-on is officially 1k, the thing go get as e be. But seriously, last week I was asking this same question after sitting in the Keke with two men going to work. I didn't know when I told the driver that they've gotten to their bustop but the driver now said no, it's not this one but the next stop.
Men, though we know siofora to be cheeky sometimes but on this one, I agree with her 100%. That armpit odour should be gotten rid of at least for the sake of us wey never buy car yet. Bikonu..
Hahahhahahaha this is so true. I know of someone (a male friend of 39-40yrs) this guy armpit will kill Ukrainians citizens.
He doesn't buy soap or perfume. Prefers to use my baby n me to wash and the reminder soap will be used to baff. The armpit is Jesus Christ.
Please guys, try and invest in soap n deodorant. You have the money, if u nor get money na another case, but if u get the money. Please buy spray and deodorant.
KennethEnyi: So Nigerians no get brain for any other thing apart from POS Nawa o no wonder this country is just backwards Useless people Useless nation…
Bro suggest something. I get 100k too. I'm just reading comments since morning.
