Langsam drehe ich durch







Ich hatte es mir im Kopf gesetzt nachhause zu fliegen. Irgendwie, weil ich meine Familie sehen will, nach drei Jahren ist das auch verständlich. Zeitlich passt das gerade nicht. Das schlimmste ist ich kann nicht mehr an was anderes denken, es geht nur noch um die Reise was ich alles machen will und machen muss. Wohlgemerkt ich muss neben bei noch lernen.
 
Gestern habe ich geschafft ein Koffer zu kaufen, bis 1:23 Uhr war ich mit der Suche nach bezahlbaren Kleider Stücke auf Zalando und Amazon beschäftig. Ich meine ich frage mich ob ich nicht einfach nachhause fliegen kann, ohne mein Konto auszuleeren. Es wäre eine Option aber alle Geburtstagen, die ich verpasst habe, die leuchtenden Augen von meinen Nichten und Neffen, wenn die, die Verpackungen sehen oder die Klamotten an haben dafür ist mir das ganz wert.

Meiner Lieferung ist angekommen, es kann also losgehen. Was mache ich als erstes... ich muss noch zu Tropeninstitut... und denn mich vom meine Mädels verabschieden. Danach bin ich start klar.Ich freue mich auf die kleine und große Menschen und hoffe zu Gott das meinen Koffern genau 23 kg jeweils wiegen.

5 culturally or spiritually significant sites you can visit across Nigeria.

As the days of my trip progressed, I realized that many of the natural sites that had survived or were being preserved had strong spiritual or cultural ties. Whether I believed the stories behind them or not was irrelevant. What mattered was that, thanks to those beliefs, these incredible places were being protected and were still accessible to visitors. Here are my favorite sites from the ones I visited. Awhum Waterfall  is attached to a monastery, and the water is believed to be sacred. So much so that women are traditionally not allowed to visit the falls while wearing trousers. The waterfall is about an hour to an hour and a half's drive from Enugu City, depending on where you depart from. The entire hike covers 6.77 km and took us 2 hours and 27 minutes to complete, including photo stops and breaks. It is absolutely beautiful. The trail begins on an open stretch before gradually descending until you reach the stream that flows from the waterfall. At this poi...

Traveling to Nigeria

If you have made it past all the negative press and terrifying stories you hear about Nigeria and still decide to come over then perhaps there are a few things I can share with you about traveling through Nigeria based on my own experience. Nigeria is not one of the usual tourist destinations in Africa. There are obviously other countries in Africa with more developed tourist industries and longer service history in the sector Safaris which most people associate with the whole of Africa are not available in Nigeria the closest you will come to that is a visit to one of our national parks and forest reserve like Yankari Game Reserve. If you are looking for a place where everything is predefined, where you find all necessary and updated information online including packaged tours – then you are also shopping in a market where this is still under development What then can you expect from a trip to Nigeria?

Much Ado about Money

Ah money makes the world go round they say. So I decided against opening a Nigerian bank account cos I would lose money when I started exchanging for the other countries currencies that were on my travel list.  Withdrawing from the ATM gives me a much better rate and it would be a more authentic experience for someone with a foreign card . Over the years I have watched the Cash availability situation in Nigeria whilst using my regular master or visa card. I can’t tell if the withdrawal fee for each transaction has always been 1400 Naira but definitely over Easter and now that what it is. 3.5€ for every transaction?!? Here is even the crazier part of it the ATM limits you to a transaction of 20,000 Naira. So I would have to pay 3.5€ for roughly every time I withdraw 50€. I needed a way around this and I found one. The large sum ATM dispenser and a credit card that allows fee less transactions worldwide. 2016 I had a similar dilemma that the ATMs weren’t even accepting m...
