In a video by @_oluwadolapo on TikTok, she said that she missed Nigeria because she felt she was missing out on her friends’ celebrations.
She also wished she could go back to the UK and see some of her friends.
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.”
