From someone working as a basic wage worker in UK, NOT ME
Loneliness - no one speaks to you anywhere. There are no friends to hang out with. Beer is expensive. All the white bonobos go home after work. No real interaction with anybody. Money - If you don’t have a night shift job, you are very broke. You need a night job to save something otherwise your expenses will drown you. You are literally a donkey there. On the up side, no load shedding, free WIFI everywhere she has visited.
So you want to come back to Kenya?
Read carefully. Shock your brain cells if you need to in order to understand
This must be a South African, hao ndio wanatombwa sagwasagwa na Eskom. Lakini these “advantages” are very basic things, ati free wifi everywhere :D:D:D
Wueh! Sawa mzito.
When will these stories about loneliness in the West end? Ati beer is expensive? Expensive to who? If you land in Europe from Kenya snd order a beer in a pub, ofcourse it will appear to be expensive. A Finn buying a beer in Sweden will have the same view. The swede will have the same issue buying a beer in norway. But the Norwegian will not be bothered because of high wages in the country.
The greatest challenge about working in the UK (and most of Europe) is the salaries are extremely low, across all industries.
Life in Europe is lonely if you are not introverted.
Africa is clan-based culture while Caucasians are family based culture. For example, when somebody dies in a village in Africa, everyone will know it. In Europe, if somebody dies, only the immediate family knows. As a villager, you might find out days or months later by reading the newspapers. You have read stories where a woman dies only to be discovered two years later.
In Africa, if you don’t hear from Mwangi in a day or two, you know there is a problem and you start asking where he is.
In Europe, nobody cares about you but your immediate family. Ktalk is my way to keep up with what is happening in 254.
Tell us something about Australia.
:D:D:D
Very true.The only upside is they have good social welfare that is if you have right papers.
Lakini compared to for example bidenstan pesa ni kidogo sana!
Africa is a great place to live and work in if we can eradicate the corruption, negative ethnicity and go back to our culture and values
Si unaenda sj ya huko unajubamba…ama kina Vivian wa huko hawatambui nyeuthi bonobos
Kukua lonely ni kujitakia. You can make friends anywhere. Even if you get dropped in the middle of the Amazon Forest, you can make friends with the tribes people there. Just take the initiative to make the first step. People are generally warm and want to reach out. Even the most hardcore racist can be reached out to and their heart touched. People are people and proper tact can break even the toughest exteriors.
My exes father obviously didn’t like it when he heard his girl was dating a black. I spent the week at their place on her 18th Birthday and the fuckers couldn’t have enough of my presence. I taught the wife how to cook fish in coconut stew and she wouldn’t stop raving at how amazing the recipe was. She reciprocated by teaching me how to make Lasagna. The old man himself, god bless his soul, we went out for a drink and when he realised I knew Russian drinking culture inside out and took my shots neat with the chaser separate, the dude was in love. As for my exes small siz. My one week there was enough for her to decide that she too wanted an African and a few months later she was on a flight to Africa. Yep, a 16 year old saved up and flew to Africa to meet a friend of mne she’d only skyped or yahooed with, but that’s a story for another day.
The fuckers are lonely, but when you bring your African warmth with you, they can’t resist but get touched. There’s no reason for a full blooded African to be lonely.
Huko escort hukuambia $300 shot moja. Ukiwa already unakula minimum wage hiyo pesa utatoa wapi? The cheapest options ni filthy crack whores in shady neighbourhoods.
In Frankfurt lanye ni 20 Euros a shot. Labda imepanda juu ya inflation. In mostother towns ni 30 Euros. Wakienda juu sana ni 50 Euros. Na ujue you are chosing from a selection of hundreds per brothel na 80% ni top quality, best of the best from all corners of the world, latina, asian, arab, european, you name it, you’ve got it. Customer Service ni professional, BJ ni kama wameenda special training na ni standard to the package. Bed high class. Ambience well thought out. Dame wamepimwa wako na health certificate that is regularly renewed.
Come on how people relate and interact in the west is totally different to how we do it at home.This is due to many factors like tight schedules,cultural differences and stereotypes etc etc.
Doesn’t mean you have to be lonely. I’ve lived in several different towns across Europe and had a stint in Asia. I’ve never struggled to make acquaintances anywhere. People will respond to you based on the stimulus you give. And you blend in based on the culture obviously. You really think in Africa I’d spend a week kwa nyumba ya parents wa msichana who is still in high school while I am in University (and sleep in her room the whole week no less!).
Uko sure buda?
Shida ya africa mzima ni salo ziko down…unless ni kampuni imekupost huko na plum hardship allowances…otherwise utalia.
Nina afew close buddies of mine tume fanya tour of duty africa…making friends na the upwardly mobile is hard coz wako kwa their countries na their families zinawa post here there everywhere so making new friends sa zote inachosha bana utatrust nani?
You can only make pals with the stagnant hoi polloi…but kuna one of our boys alimaliza his tour of duty kama amepachika 5 different barmaids…true story muhfuckers.
Maybe friendship was the wrong word. It’s easy to make acquaintances is more appropriate.
