“As a Nigerian that has lived in the UK 🇬🇧 for 30months, this is my honest opinion. Houses. The UK is a very conservative country, don’t expect to see skyscrapers or modern buildings everywhere when you relocate to the UK. They love their old homes and rarely try new designs.

“Food is relatively cheap, but because You get to eat more of your local dishes than English meal, it makes food a bit more pricy. Yes English meals are nice but you can’t eat/survive on them. Travelling. If you love to travel, living in the UK will really help. Applying for visas much more easier here. If you love the country life, then the UK is where you should be."

“Houses are way too expensive than they are truly worth. I still don’t understand why houses in the uk are too expensive. You go see Mumu 3bed for over £250/£300k. There is so much fun in the UK 🇬🇧 but you have to create it yourself / with friends.”
