Maua
Itaquaquecetuba
Itapevi
Embu das Artes
Guarulhos (Some Bairros)
Suzano
Mogi das Cruzes

Thank you for this.

Any colleges or universities you can recommend around there?

It's indeed cheaper to live in non big cities and non touristy places but you may not like it there. Most of the time, the people and the system there are not used to foreigners so you may find it difficult to integrate or get things done especially with the language barrier.

Personally, I feel the south is the best to live because of the exposure, development and opportunities. I don't know much about Rio but I can tell you about São Paulo in detail.

The city of São Paulo is located in the State of São Paulo and it's just one of the 645 cities in the state. Yes, the state alone is over a quarter of Nigeria's land size with a population of 45m. It's very possible to find and live in cheaper cities within the state of São Paulo. You can explore cities that are close to São Paulo city. It's not always a traveling distance, you might just be crossing a street to enter the next city.

There are also cities categorized as São Paulo interior, they are farther from main cities but they are cheaper, you may get bored there too depending on your personality. For example Campos do Jordão, it's a touristy interior city about 3 hrs drive from the city and very hilly, if you like nature, you may like it there.

You may stay in any of these cities and move to SP City later if you want, it's more feasible to move within a state than to move inter state. Brazil is too big that moving from North to South for example will be a big headache. There are places that will take you 3 days by road to get there, even Rio to São Paulo is 7 hrs by road

Another city you can check out is Curitiba in the state of Paraná. It's conducive and relatively cheap.


Rio and São Paulo are expensive especially with accommodation but food and transportation isn't a problem in SP. São Paulo is more developed than Rio but more crowded. São Paulo is the New York of Brazil. Rio is more of an older city with older buildings and lots of graffiti but the people are generally perceived to be nicer.

I hope I answered your questions.

Thank you for this information, it was very helpful.

What can you share about Salvador Bahia? Any schools worth trying? Is that side organized or better put effort elsewhere?

The part where you said smaller cities not accustomed to Foreigners helped a lot. Also you speaking of the South being better option ia a big help.

oluyemi123:


Nairalanders made him stopped posting na. It's always a trend here when you are not in UK , US , Germany all those countries that Nigerians love running to for nairalanders to be abusing and castigating you. Same thing is going on in Chile thread.

Job is not easy to get in Brazil because of the language barrier and even the available jobs, their salary is poor. Brazil is not a place where you can hustle for money oo only if you want to be involved in illegal businesses.

Factory jobs are available though if you can do it. Salary is 1600 but you might be asked to go to interior. I get people who dey do those kind jobs.

other jobs dey wey you go dey get daily money for survival.

Teaching jobs dey too, but salary nah problem

But if you're in TECH as advised by the person above me, you go get job with good payment.

Most people that are I know including myself are here purposely cos of the passport.

If we are able to be get it, omooooo nah movement oo.

Is there a big interest to learn English by Brazilians?

GCUB scholarships is gone till next year 2025?

What other ways can we go study?

Adezworld:
I got it although couldn't use it until it expired due to transit issue, I applied to the consulate in Abuja most importantly I attached my invitation letter from my Jamaica friend to the application and I was given 3 months visa, currently working on better/easy transit route without needing USA, UK or Canada visa once I get a better route, I will reapply

I was watching a vlog from an African visiting the Caribbean .

Both the Jamaicans and the Africans, thr airline that makes a way for flights direct from the Caribbean will make $$$$$.

Many want to visit the Caribbean but TRANSIT visa issue is a problem.

Tips and tricks to get VISA would be helpful.

I have been reading but this thread is for quick reference.

Which countries have faster?

Brazil + Mexico = are Good if you have a child there.
They will also give temp residency for asylum.

Which others are QUICK, through children or other method?

usa is Useless because you have to wait for your child to turn 21 in the meantime you are undocumented. Plus with the current migrant crisis it is unpredictable what will.happen to those people.
Canada = so many hoops to jump . through.

Most people aim for the 1st world countries but there are some in between countries that are worth a try.

Can we share so that those who are planning for 2024 have a chance.

God bless you all as we try for a better life.

Did you go as a student or work or how?

bezimo:
Canada is been home for me for over 8 years..no regrets living that shit hole country called Nigeria.

Here you see quite a number of Nigerians to relate with..in church and occasionally at grocery stores. So you are not really alone but most of my friends are white than Nigerians

Here, they dont do anyhow..there are laws..you must obey, traffic laws etc or else wahala

Canadians are typically friendly and helpful, here you often see a Canadian that you dont know from Adam stop and start talking to you on maybe an observation or something around and you should listen..and act interested and laugh..

Here, coming from Nigeria you must learn to be polite..no shout on anybody oh..at work at school etc..

Their girls..they can love oh, are not material or money driven because they have their own money, car etc, once they are in with you its only you, they wont cheat and wont tolerate it either.

Some of the countries, you go enter but How you go survive if you don't have serious cash or family support?

gforce5:
I referenced other African countries as that money can go a long way in those countries. The only downside is that their passports are useless internationally (with the exception of Botswana, South Africa and Namibia).



I always recommend Brazil to clients/strangers but the problem is the distance (no direct flights) ease of acquiring a Brazilian visa and costs (the most economically viable region in Brazil is in the south and its living expenses aren't cheap).

Are you saying Brazil visa is easy to get, But
problem is going there = distance?

another problem is life is NOT cheap? The south is viable but expensive.

The other parts are not really viable?

UjuConfy:


I stay in the Philippines. I will send you a message soon.

Any information on Masters programs?

Cost and and schools you can recommend?
