What advice would you give your younger self?
I was in England for 5 years for educational purposes but I never went out of the UK. I would advise my younger self to travel around Europe, even if it’s just a weekend trip via Train to France. Or Delaying my return to Nigeria by a week so I could explore Italy, Germany, Switzerland, etc I used to come back to Nigeria almost every holiday because I missed my family and they missed me too, I missed the hussle and bustle of Lagos, Home, food, etc but the truth is these things never run away. Travel is good, it opens your mind, you’re exposed to new cultures and you get to see how humungous the world is.
