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.

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?

Budget accommodation in Nigeria?

Hostels in Nigeria? Personally, when I travel, I look for trendy hostels, I could stay in. You see Hostels are great for Solo travelers, it’s a perfect place and way to meet other travelers that are like-minded to explore with. They are also more affordable than hotels. At first, I stayed in Dormitories and after a few years I started staying in single rooms in Hostels. In the years I have been coming back to Nigeria I never heard of hostels, so I choose to look for budget hotels.  I budgeted maximum 20 euros per night. My Budget - I choose a 20 euros budget because in Mexico and Brazil I was able to find good hostels with dormitory beds for 9 to 15 euro a night or a single room for 20 to 35 euros a night.  The cheapest I dared to stay in Obudu and Kachia cost 5500 a night - the service level differ greatly. When you book a double room, most find it hard to give you two towels but some property owners understand that it's about HOSPITALITY To identify hotels, I us...

No She wants to lick the soup :-)!

So my 18 year old cousin asked me if she should make semovita for me for lunch. And since my masterplan while on this trip was to get as much authentic Nigerian food taste back again but without blowing my Carb levels through the roof, I said no. For those who don't know what semovita is, its based on wheat flour and its mainly eaten as a side dish for one of the various soups we have in the Nigerian kitchen. So my Cousin goes what do you want to eat with the soup then? Just the soup I answered. She looked at me like I had said something so ridiculous. Just the soup she repeated? yes i answered smiling. An hour or two goes by my sister in law gets back home and asked if i have had lunch. She called out to my cousin to come make some semovita for me and get the soup warm. My Cousin replies saying 'No Oby says she wants to Lick the soup :-)' At this point I doubled over with laughter because honestly speaking culturally it isn't something you do. Its considered...
