First off, that salary bump at the startup e sweet, right? Who wouldn't want to jump at that? But, here's the thing about startups - they can be a rollercoaster. Sure, they're exciting and full of energy, but they're also a bit like the Wild West. You might not have the same chill work-life balance you're used to. Expect more "all hands on deck" moments than you can count.

And about your role, in a startup, you often end up being a jack-of-all-trades. You might be hired for one thing, but end up doing a whole lot more. It's great for learning and growing, but can also be super exhausting. You won't just have your neat, tidy job description to stick to.

Now, let's talk about the elephant in the room: job security. Startups are a gamble. They can skyrocket or crash and burn. That big salary is tempting, but it's a bit like betting on a high-stakes game. You could win big, or you could lose out.

On the flip side, being part of a startup's growth from the ground up can be amazing. If it takes off, you're on that rocket ship with them. It's a chance to really make your mark and grow fast career-wise.

But, and this is a big but, think about the vibe too. Startups are usually less formal, more "do whatever it takes to get the job done". It's a totally different atmosphere from established companies. Are you ready for that kind of hustle and bustle?

So, yeah, it's a tough call. The startup's offer is like a shiny new toy, but your current gigs have their own perks – stability, structure, and a known quantity. Just weigh up the pros and cons based on what matters most to you.

If I were you I would use this opportunity to renegotiate my current salary. My friends have used this opportunity to renegotiate their salaries.

But why travel on a tourist visa?

Sweden is one of the best countries in Europe both economically and politically. You don’t have to travel on a tourist visa when there is a Talent visa scheme for highly qualified persons.

When you're trying to relocate to another country as a black person, one question to ask is how racist the host country is towards us, black people.

We cannot say because we're tired of situations in our country and in our honest search for a better life, we fall into the hands of people that hate us to the level of wanting to kill us.

That will be like jumping from frying pan to fire.

And racism was also one of the issues on my mind when I was considering which country I wanted to study in.

Now, there's one thing that Sweden did that endeared me to the country.

3 years ago, Sweden ran a campaign where anyone from any country of the world could call a number and speak with a random Swede.

Yeah, it was real.

See the pictures attached for details on the poster

The way it worked was, you call a special number (+46771793336), and you'd be immediately routed to speak with a random Swedish person, just any Swede in the country going about their day.

No other country has ever done that.

The campaign has closed now, but it demonstrated to me how to open Sweden is towards people of other nationalities, no matter where they're from.

Another thing they did was quite remarkable.

At the height of the Syrian refugee crisis in 2015, Sweden received over 160,000 refugees from war-torn Middle East countries, looking for protection.

Alongside Germany, Sweden was one of the most preferred European destinations for refuge-seeking immigrants from Syria.

These were people from mostly Muslim backgrounds and Sweden opened its arms to them.

Swedish society is largely atheistic, most Swedes do not care about religion but there is freedom of religion.

Everyone is free to practice whatever religion they choose. There are churches here and there are mosques as well.

Now, am I saying there's no racism in Sweden?

Of course not.

Racism exists in every country of the world.

However, the fact is, the majority of humans are good beautiful people, and Swedish people are not an exception.
