You will definitely miss some things from Naija while here, it could be the very little or basic things like getting a nice hair cut, having a proper social life, food, English language, especially if you find yourself outside these cities: Helsinki, Tampere, Espoo, maybe Jyväskylä and Vaasa....So you gaz improvise a lot, for example, I learned to barb my hair by myself because of absence of black barbers, I nor fit pay 50 euro make one oyibo girl use my hair take train na ![]() ![]() 8 Likes |

I seldom visit travel section but I had to out of curiosity and research purposes. I just clicked some random threads and this happened to be one of them. This thread is one that intrigued me. What I deduced is that the OP, ibrahimovic303, is a good person; he is simple to the core. I commend you for this thread and the way you've carried everyone along in this thread sharing your experience and knowledge about Scandinavian countries (Finland in particular). You've kept the thread moving even though some nairalanders residing there decided to stay mum and ignore the thread or rather observe on low-key mode. You were patient enough to answer certain questions again and again. Still running my programme here in naija but the thread is eye opening and interesting. In case I wan comot for naija, Finland will be on my radar. Thanks for the enlightenment and keep up with the great job. Amazing thread! Finland na Introverted country that's why dem just dey the way you describe them. 19 Likes 1 Share |

Let me update the thread with something about the Finnish work culture...Here in Finland, emphasis is based on what you can actually produce, not like our dear country, Nigeria with their 2.1 or 2.2 hullabaloo....Well, as a developer in an IT firm here, I just needed to show my interviewer a few things on his laptop, and that was sufficient to land me the job....I resumed, and was shown my desk, my pc, my laptop and that is it! Emphasis here is on what you can produce, as in once you are good and valuable to the white man, he will bring you closer irrespective of race or whatsoever....So what am I saying? You have to make yourself useful to them, and prove beyond resonable doubts that you are competent....In Naija, only a 2.1 is enough for this most times, or a good crammer....Let that sink in, as you plan to migrate. I think this mentality is developing little by little in Naija with multinational firms...I had a friend in Uni that finished with a 3rd Class, but he was a software guru who did big things...All the Nigerian firms chased him away, because of his grade...Guess what? Dude is currently doing what he knows how to do best in Silicon Valley, USA.....Naija I hail oh ![]() 9 Likes |

Nice work Zlatan,we had a nice little talk, and to add my voice to this great thread ,you just gotta remain positive in this country and lots of doors would open for you. These guys are interested in what you can do not in the color of your skin most of the time ,though I can boldly say that learning the language might brighten your chances more, lots of opportunities remain untapped, opportunities keeps opening each day ,you just have to look in the right places and associate with positive minded people. I would suggest that peeps that are in Finland already should update the thread about opportunities in their region. We can work togeda to achieve greater good. Organisations like Foodera,wolt, iss employ people in some regions here. You can't regret coming to this country ,despite the weather,the language barrier and their social life, you go dae alright laslas 9 Likes 1 Share |

Feel free to ask questions,I would be willing to answer the ones I can. Kiitos Paljon God bless Nigeria 5 Likes |
