Hi There!
My name is Ann and I moved to Finland from Nigeria in 2016 and have been trying to incorporate actions of purpose and positivity in all aspects of my life.
2020 came striking with many instabilities which made me almost lose touch and purpose with my life. The years will pass by so swiftly and we might begin to feel that we have no purpose in life and cannot make any impact in the world.
With little steps in trying to be conscious of what we do, with whom we interact and the relationships we build, we could try to make an impact as little as we can.
I hope that my videos will shed some light on some of my experiences, ideas and inspirations towards finding purpose, through moving and "trying" to settle in diaspora.

Midsummer in Summer Cottage in Finland
zhlédnutí 912Před 2 lety
#naijafinlandgirl This was Midsummer 2021 in a Finnish Summer cottage. Enjoy the birds singing :)
Insight from a Finn in 06/2024: do not come here unless you are a highly skilled professional. Our economy is not great, unemployment has been rising and even old companies are going bankrupt. Finns have very little loose money, as the taxes keep raising but salaries lack behind. The benefits are not that good either and they have just been decreased for family units greatly. Public healthcare does not work, it costs for adults too. A new law will be passed soon, meaning the employer can cut the worker loose without a reason in the future. This is a huge change and there have been riots against it...
Hello, Thanks for your great information. I’m moving to Finland in about 3 months. Could you please give me more information about medical system in Finland?
I might move to turku for my master's studies, and honestly i'm really not looking forward to the super cold winters and especially regarding the super long nights... Any tips to make going through finnish winters easier? I'll take whatever you have lol
Just have a positive attitude. The cold doesn't really kill you
Excellent work! Thank you.
Thank you for the info

People from Africa and Middle East want to bring their way of living in new countries, don't want to accommodate there, want living in paralel world..and after all they are always angry and frustrated and after all want some respects !!!As millions are not coming every year in EU and already destroyed Europe
True. Finns have no issues with Asians or Europeans, but we do not like many other groups. Why? Because Africans and Arabs can act very, very uppity with us. Even if the majority lives on benefits, does not learn our rules/social codes, they still think they are better than Finns. I have no idea why we put up with it.
Is it easy to get a job
Hello Please, is it easy to get work
Pardon me; perhaps my question is a bit irrelevant in the context. But it would be super great if you'd answer my question here. Are there tantrum kids in Finland? At a public place, etc. Thank you for your response, and good luck with your CZcams channel.

Hello, are on Instagram. I need to talk to you
9:48 Not to be pedantic, but that spelling mistake changes the whole definition. Great video though.
I understand you're a marketing professional like myself. Would you advise me to do my MSC MARKETING in Finland? Are there sales Jobs or project management jobs for international students/graduates?
Watching from Poland. Will like to visit Finland later this year. Your videos are educative. Keep it up
Can you move to another EUROPEAN COUNTRY that is more to your liking like Spain or Portugal?
Wow Finlsnd ist wunderbar 😊
This is a negative thing that is difficult to spot quickly and should be known by any foreigner settling in Finland. In Finland there is a unique bullying culture. Bullying occurs everywhere, but in Finland it is an institution with special qualities. Bullying takes place in schools, the workplace, churches, and in any social grouping such as registered societies and sport clubs. When it does take place, and this is the unique feature, the victim of bullying is always blamed by everyone. In schools, the teachers blame the victim and stand up for the bully. They deny that bullying takes place in specific, although they may admit it in general or outside their circle. In the workplace, the same occurs. The bully is glorified, the victim universally chastised. In other countries, there are always defenders, sometimes few, but at least enough to diminish the problem. Furthermore, in other places, persons of authority do not always defend bullies. I have seen this repeatedly over decades and it is always the same. People may privately disapprove, but in public they always meet bullying with silence or support the bully. They have just elected a president who was an acknowledged bully in school and such people tend to do so later in life as well. Finns who are bullied often leave the country or commit suicide, which is the major reason for high suicide rates in Finland. Now a foreigner is not really likely to be the victim of bullying, although it can occur. But it is vital to know what kind of society you are entering.
Thank so much for your advice madame. Please can I have your contact. I'm preparing to move in this beautiful country.

When you have a hair dressing santificate from another Europe country can you work with it in fineland
Pls can someone with visitor visa apply for student visa why in Finland
Thank you ❤
I think the language, degree and skills are the key for white collar job or almost any job. Learn the language and start using it as soon as possible. I know so many people here from other countries who know only basic phrases in finnish and then they wonder why they can’t get a job. Of course there are some low paid jobs you can find and manage to do with very basic finnish, but not white collar ones or anything where you need to be able to communicate in finnish or swedish. Dark is hard for some of us too, so we often use these bright light lamps to give us energy in the morning.
Hi! I just came across your page ma’am, pls can you advise me on relocating to finland with my family? I need more helpful information from someone there than an agent here in nigeria convincing me on finland. Pls will so appreciate your earliest response ma 🙏🏻
Thanks for an informative video!
Unfortunately Finland is falling down hard right now the job market for example is very small and insular, especially as a foreigner you will have a impossible time getting a job since you WILL be discriminated against in job searches. Unless you want to work for 5€/H then it's fine and dandy, that's my personal experience at least. Wouldn't move here from abroad since there are EU countries with better job markets than Finland.
Do you mind listing EU countries with better job market?
I have thought about moving to Finland for some time. I live in the Midwestern U.S., so we get winter. But not like in Finland! My question is: Was it difficult for you to adapt to the winters, and the long periods of darkness?
Continent of Europe is thesame on Sunday's
Seem really boring 😢, God help me
Are you there?
I am planning to relocate to Finland, please kindly advice me
Intelligent young woman. Move on.
Hello please can I have your email, I would like to know more , because I intend to move to Finland please help
Basically if you’re rich and you have ambition to grow in your business or innovate something or be rewarded for your effort, don’t come…. BUT you must come if you like to be lazy, socialist and want to depend on the government like 100% and ALSO if you don’t like people you totally HAVE TO BE HERE 😂😂😂 this video is ridiculous. It doesn’t give you any sort of import information if you’re going there like: how much is average wage of leaving, how much money is taken from your paycheck, education system, rules that might be weird that if you don’t know them you get charged, etc.
Also, if you don’t like following rules, like Finland is the FIRST country with rules, that’s just in 3rd world countries on where rules are ignored, but anywhere else(1st world countries) you must follow them. So how’s that just Finland?
There are ways to get around laws for the smart without breaking the rules . It will be nice to know how does the underworld works in Finland . She makes it seem like finland their are Saints all over the country. Where theres a will theres a way. The only thing that can happen is to fail but even failing is a experience gained that will make you smarter and mentally strong.
you and your comment are ridiculous. if you wanna hear those things watch other videos?
Please me and my kids will like to relocate to Finland please can you put me ture thanks 😊
At least one immigrant who doesn't claim that more immigrants should make Finland more "friendly" for non-Finns. It's hard to bear when strangers question your culture, even though they came to the country because of the better living conditions.
my god, how beautiful you are
Hello, can I ask you an important question?
