willy2000: Thank you for being among the few ones that speak the truth despite the gender involved. Most Nigerian men are just woman pleasers always bias in their judgment |

Basalt: Dude, I am not attacking or supporting anyone here, I am just stating my opinion based on what I have experienced. We use the word kill a lot in pidgin, but that doesn't mean we actually mean it. Don't tell me you have not used it b4. Phrases like "I go kill am if I catch am", "meh the job dey kill body sha". And besides everything shouldn't be about gender. 3 Likes |

Eldeee: Thanks for your post boss, if you go through my comments, you would find out that for every harsh word I used, there was a reason for that. Check well and you will see that those people were the first to attack me. I am a very easy going man but don't fvck with me because I can be brutal especially online if you first find my trouble |

willy2000: But USA student visa is extremely costly. The only reason I considered Germany in first place is their free education. After studies and saving some money, I will target moving to USA, Canada, Australia or Switzerland for my PhD. I heard those countries pay very well (almost double what is paid in Germany ) with lesser tax 1 Like |

Goztino: The list is for both male and female travellers, choose your gender . I hope the PDF doesn't give you an heart attack. Turkish airline allows 23Kg*2 and 10Kg*1. You pay (negotiate) for anything above. The 40ft container doesn't seem like a bad idea tho! 6 Likes |

Thanks again. I saw on the visa thread that one should buy a router and LAN cable while coming. Can you recommend which brand to buy? Adhheir: |

Basalt: The USA may have lesser Tax, but the standard of living, healthcare, unemployment security I don't think so. Besides, what is good for the geese may be bad for the gander. But don't come to Germany with high hopes of raking in thousands of Euro when studying. Can you remove Switzerland from your wish list, I won't advise you to go there as a Student, But should you get a job offer, you can take it. That is IF you get one. 1 Like |

Re: Nigerian Students In Germany..how Do You Survive?? by willy2000(m): 4:34pm On Apr 29, 2019 |
Adhheir: This your list is based on clothes, which I think is actually not so important depending on which semester you are coming. Clothing: Jeans: it is cheaper in Nigeria. Shirts: if you are into shirts, but as for me I am a t-shirt guy Shoes: for ladies don't come with any high heels, you will end up not wearing it. But something durable with a flat sole. As for thick socks(wollen) and Thermals, you only need them during the winter Months, and you can buy them cheap here. Don't buy the Nigerian sippers ohh, you may end up living in a house with slippery laminate. Normal in-door slippers are also not expensive. You can visit the 1€ shop, same applies to head warmer. FOOD: THIS IS IMPORTANT, unless you are not a food person. You first three months trying to adjust to the kind of food here won't be funny. Basic things like normal Maggi will be a task buying it in the supermarket. Try as much as possible to get enough ingredients for your best food. This will help in time of need when things start getting rough, you can always come home and enjoy a nice meal and feel happy and relaxed. Well if you are not into food then you can ignore this and fly in. Then you start eating bread and potatoes because you want to save cost. 18 Likes 6 Shares |
