Why I miss Nigeria more than ever- Lady who moved from UK to Canada reveals
Oluwadolapo, a Nigerian woman, explained why she misses Nigeria after relocating from the UK to Canada
In a TikTok video, she shared that during her eighth month in Canada, she felt left out of her friends’ celebrations in Nigeria and wished she could return to the UK to visit some of them.
Oluwadolapo said: “This month marks my 8th month in Canada and I’m not ashamed to admit that sometimes I want to book a flight back to the UK just to see my friends again. I miss Nigeria now more than ever, cause I feel like I’m missing on important celebrations in my friends’ lives.
“For the first few months getting here, I felt like I was starting life all over again and it was a depressing feeling. After getting my first job, I still didn’t feel fulfilled cause it was a new career path and I felt like a novice.
“Making friends here is the hardest, and I haven’t stopped praying to God to bring me a community of godly friends. I still convert prices to pounds in my head before buying things plus the taxes?! I’m realising that settling down takes time and that’s okay! Going ahead with God makes the journey a thousand times smoother and sweeter.”
When asked which of the countries she preferred between the UK and Canada, Oluwadolapo said: “Hmmm, I prefer the UK. I love it here and I think it has lots of pros, but I miss the UK.”
