New members of the Nigeria forum, introduce yourself here — 2016

Hello,

I am living in Lagos since March 2016. I am a mechanical engineer working at Etco; I am the first female expat in the company. I am married with two adult children and I work in Apapa and live in Lekki. My family lives in Israel, my daughter moving soon to the USA for a PhD in Chemical Engineering.
The first 3 weeks were tough, but slowly I am getting along and starting to enjoy.
The worse part was the weekends when I had nobody to talk to, I almost went insane.
I am not the party kind of person, but enjoy day trips, the local culture and meeting new people.
I am open for suggestions!

Claudia

Hello Claudia,
I'm jst reading your post, I don't know if u'v gotten the balance and living like a Nigerian. The truth is, there are so many places u can always be @ in Lagos and u can't get bored. I had about 4 friends who came from the US to Nigeria sometime ago, all I did was to take them round and I showed them lot of places and we discovered new spots to relax @ a very good price and most importantly a well secured environment. But if u need any more questions u can inbox me. God bless.

Hi,

I am in Nigeria since 2011, I have moved single as my kids are studying in India. First two weeks were difficult but then everything was normal except for few limitations. I feel people here are friendly and ready to help when needed.

Best of Luck
