Let me position my chair well. Mr. Pablo, pictures!

Welcome sir, I'm not a really a picture person but over the years I have taken some pictures especially while on trips to the island of Koh Samui which I think has to be one of the most beautiful island in the world.

Congrats man. Are you doing masters or undergraduate?

Did both my undergraduate and Master's in Thailand. Followed by a teaching gig.

Right off the bat, the first thing I noticed was how cheap the cost of living was, at the time 1 baht (Thailand's currency) was equal to 5 naira, now it's 1 baht equals around 12 naira. Living in the dormitory I spent less than 15000 naira monthly paying my rent and utilities included unlimited internet and water bills (note:due to the fall of the naira this amount has risen 2.5 times higher). Food in this country is probably the cheapest any where in the world, if you really manage yourself and cook your own food you will spend less than 15000 naira monthly on feeding. Now the big issue is of course the tuition fees, I did a very respectful course for less than 700000 naira a year and the good thing is you are allowed to spread out the payment within the one year period, just make sure you settle before you apply for your next visa (you get 1 year student visa to be renewed every year by your school and immigration).

op thank you so much for this post, actually I've been thinking of relocating and Thailand is on my watchlist .. please tell me how do I go about it .. I planned to work first then study please help

As for me, I left for Thailand on a student visa. The process was as simple as just making sure you have a sponsor's letter (with a good statement of account), notarizing your documents, a letter of admission from the school you are applying to, police report, the biggest hurdle will probably be the NDLEA clearance (due to the bad reputation of some of our drug trafficking brethren). I was lucky enough to be accommodated by an agent until I confirmed my admission into the University and lived in the student dormitory.

As much as I won't like to make this forum about visa requirements, I will like to let anyone looking into this country know you can get in with work, tourist and student (the easiest) visa.

Most visitors to the country will probably land in Bangkok (Thailand's capital) which is one of the top tourist city in the world. The country make a huge revenue on tourism alone.

For a while now, I have been nursing the idea of sharing some of my experiences living in Thailand as a Nigerian but due to my current tight schedule haven't been able to. First, what comes to mind when people mention the country Thailand? (Probably stories of Nigerians imprisoned for various criminal acts) but I put to you this isn't always the case. There are Nigerians enjoying their stay and getting on well with life in this paradise.
If you are interested in reading about my experience, kindly like and follow. Thanks.
