Hello All
I am considering a job offer to work as a consultant with a major bank, and the job is based in Lagos. I have not been to Nigeria or even West Africa before. I appreciate any advice / recommendations for the following questions - First hand experience from those living there is always best!
Just HOW dangerous is it there, and what areas/neighbourhoods are recommended for Western expat living?
Are there modern shopping malls with Western/ International fashion and skin care brands and are there international ladies spas?
Are there nice, clean and safe beaches that one can visit on weekends that are away from the city?
Im vegetarian; are there (Far east) Asian restaurants such as Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese, also are there European-taste restaurants, and if so, are they very expensive?
What leisure activities do most expats enjoy doing in spare time / weekends?
I greatly appreciate any comments or advice!
Regards,
ME
