With this analysis here, Kly003 you're Smart and I think you made a smart choice.


Kly003:
Again, let me bring this to your notice.... You cant say Polish people are the slaves of europe...

I will drop some analysis and let my readers draw their conclusion..

First, the question is... How did you travel? If your travel was based on studies- You have an unfair advantage over those in UK as it concerns JOB OPPORTUNITES... (not disputing the fact that UK schools rank far better than polish schools)

I will explain.

Mr. A travels to UK for his studies.... he's got a massive tuition fee to cover and other living expenses, he gets a student job, but according to the law, he is only allowed to work for 20 hours a week.... That money isn't enough to take care of his bills or even tuition fee, he gets a student loan and this goes on and on, till he graduates and hopefully finds a job to pay off the student loan....


Mr. B, Travels to Poland for his studies- He pays a semester tution fee as affordable as 500k or less, and has very little expenses to cater for as the cost of living in Poland is relatively cheap. More interestingly, according to Polish law for students, he is allowed to work full time with no hours restricted and as long as his studies are valid, that automatically equates his work permit! The jobs in questions are not just meanial jobs- Of course that could happen or mosly happens at the initial stage just as it is in UK... But he gets office jobs for multinational companies across europe and even in the US and gets paid as though he is a full time staff...

At the ending, MR. A lives in UK with bills to cater for from his limited hourly job source and thrives on student loan.... While, Mr. B lives in Poland working full time (remotely) while having a self study/part time studies in his university and he earns and save even more.

Need i remind you that majority of companies in UK are even situated here because poland has the least taxation system?

[b]This analysis goes only for students... If you are thinking of travelling without any plan, there is no guarantee....

What a great thread
Re: My Poland Japa Experience (honest View) by Kly003: 11:09pm On Jul 28, 2022
Purge your mind off racism.... I want you to keep this in mind, the harshest of racism is less than the tribalism and animalist behaviour I experiences back in 9ja even at my work place.

I don't disturb myself over this.... Look, white people are nice, genuely nice. Even when they have reasons to doubt Nigerians because of our stigma, reputation, they still give you benefits of doubt.

Oh well, my office job gotten was from a white lady referral. How is that racism?

I mean it does exist but in the majority of things, when they get to know you and you integrate into the system, you will be celebrated.

As if standsx most countries are better than naija.... I have little or no information about Romania I must tell you. I can't talk muck about it.

But I have read their economy isnt vibrant enough, but damn they got pretty ladies there....

I also know people who study there and on hollidays go to united States to work.

Interesting thread. I am building a network of Nigerians in European countries on instagram. Please follow the page and invite other Nigerians in Europe that you know to follow as well. Lets create a network to share information and opportunities. It is only for Nigeians in Europe, those planning to come to Europe, when you arrive, it will be nice for you to follow the page as well.

October 4th, 2021- My most bitterly sweet experience at the Murtala Muhammed Airport!

Story Continues

The moment we landed Ikeja and took a taxi to Murtala Muhammed Airport, i could sense extortion i was closer to my greatest milestone. While we entered the Taxi, the driver cautioned us to print out every document i needed to before entering the Airport, his reason was that prices at the Airport were ridiculously expensive. Omo, on hearing this, we quickly alighted in some business center, while i was already panicking to get the covid result sent to my email hence it was mandatory. i refreshed my email and saw it was sent... Opps! I was really excited and printed 2 copies extra of it for 100 naira each (all coloured).

For my mind, i am prepared and wont be spending extra money at the Airport. We drove inside the Airport and alighted at the entrance. Right from that moment a man came with some trolley and offered to take my bags in, i accepted and he took everything. Omo, it wasnt up to 5 mins walk, we got inside after they had ran scan through me and my luggage, i gave the guy 500, he declined and said his money is 2k and that was the fixed price... We then bargained for 1500 and that was it.

Guys, at this point i had to make my mama sit down, while i was with my luggage surifing through everywhere to known whats up... She sat in the cafetaria and i held my luggage walking all around, observing what is happening.

Look! for your information, you don't leave your bags carelessly when travelling- I'm sure you know it could be costly when someone sneak things in.

After asking all question and seeing that we had to wait to queue to weigh our baggages in the next hour, i had to sit at the cafetaria with my mum and asked if she was hungry.

Guys i was really hungry, I just completely forgot i was hungry- The previous night i couldn't even eat anything, me sef don loose weight. Travelling na stress sha! I decided it was time to get some food to eat and so i asked for the price for rice and chicken for myself and my mum... Omo! when i see price i weak. As in, i weak!

But you know women are always women, my mum had wrapped some meat and brought drink for me all this while, she even gave me chin-chin, the one my sister prepared for me. Guys, mothers are indeed caring, i could remember yelling at my mum telling her to hurry when leaving Benin for lagos, i just didn't know she was preparing sef to have my back.

Omo, i could only afford the 700 naira bottle water and chewed it with the meat and drink. We both ate together, i thought i was the only one, until i saw some other sharp guys bringing out their food from the cooler... Omo, naija no fit frustrate us, we nigerians will always improvice.

While sitting i wasn't comfortable, we were told an announcement will be made for our boarding ticket, still, i wanted to observe to know what's up... Where my Bini guy sef? I thought, i had to call him to chevk on him and he said he was already on his way down the Airport. I quickly updated him to photocopy any document outside cos its expensive here. Guy man said, he was already close and he doesn't mind paying the price... Okay nah!

He arrived, i was so happy i wasn't alone this time, he came with his uncle and aunt and they both sat with my mum, atleast to keep themselves busy while we went on full attacking mode knowing to get things sorted out.

Just at the Airport, my guy received his covid testing result which showed negative and he went straight off to print... Guys, coloured was 2,500 and black and white was 2k... He had to print the coloured.

Time for weighing luggage's came and mine was slightly over weighed i paid 20k extra and i was left with just 3k naira.. That was all the money i had in naira expect my hard currency i have already changed.

Registration of items on the bag, they called it agro registration, we paid 2k, i was left with just 1k..

Finally, we were told to queue as they were to wrap and inspect our luggages, sharp sharp we hustled our way through to the line.... All my hands were busy with luggages, even my teeth was holding an envelop.... Guys, it wasn't easy. Right there, they collected 2k again. This was where my mum came in as she squeezed 10k on my hands for subsequent charges..... It was not easy.

After we all waited and time for inspection startd, i jumped up with my guy and stood on a line with every check point, inspection officer. We got to a point, they asked our parents to go back.... It was a place of no return... See some parents being very dramatic, crying and praying out loud for their children... Chaa, i felt emotional. My mum sytarted crying in my presence, then i hugged her and said i will be fine, i should contact her when i arrive... Omo, she didn't end there oo, she broke protocol and still passed the stage they asked them to stop.. Na she even give the other parents mind. I had to tell her to leave and she left sobbing. Guys, it was emotional.

At this point, i was thinking of giving her all my naira because i felt there will be no need after the check, but she was already gone. Even my guy sef was like, hold your money oo.. This people head no correct o, we fit still sort them for front. I was left with 8k... Omo, it got to my turn, the inspection officer checked my docs, admission letter, tution fee, guys i took all of them , even accommodation letter sef grin but he insisted i drop something for him, i was like what do you mean... He just ignored me and called on the next person, i had to quickly squeeze 1k in his hand after cursing that money. We passed that stage, we got to a stage where we had to walk on barefoot, place our shoes and bag on a machine that would check and scan through. My perfume was there and they demanded i sort them for it, i had to drop 1k there again. It was a lenghty scrutiny check until we arrived the final check point. It was a dark and long walk way.... you could hear your voice echo... At this point, some of the people inspecting were advicing us "come back naija oo, no place like home" It was the last check point..... Our naira would be useless from this point.... I looked to an elderly woman and gave her my last 3k.... she prayed and blessed me there and then i moved all through...

Lo and Behold, it was as tho i was in heaven, the walk way became bright and the atmosphere was smelling nice, we walked our way through until we met turkish angels as air hostess welcoming us... These ladies were beautiful, wearing long socks, white and red attire and they lwere the prettiest ladies i have met on live since i was born as at then.... (before i later met some polish girls), their smile at you can make you forget all your sorrow at once... I had my seat number already and i reached to place my back luggage at the cabin. It was all fun... As they spoke in Turkish, there was a beautiful voice interpreting in English. You could see all the Air hostess walking around while we were all seated... These ladies are damn beautiful. We fasted our belts and reached to read the manual they gave us... We had viewing device at the back of the seat to watch any movie or entertainment...

It was my first time of travelling guys, the naija guy who sat close to me said he has travelled couple of times before and adviced me to eat all their food and ask for more... grin grin.. Typical naija guy, you could see him asking for juice, wine and all that. It became cold and i felt sleepy, we were given socks and a cover while sleeping. It was a soothing smooth ride. My life changed from the time i left murtala muhammed. It was an experience like none.

To be continued.... Next (Arrival on Transit to Turkey and Arrival to Warsaw, Poland)
