Living in Australia/ How migrating to Australia changed my life

Sooo insightful. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait for the next part which touches a very important subject. Especially if you have to transition from white collar/ business owner 'status' to blue collar. Well done superwoman 😉👍

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Thanks for watching Dami! Yes please be on the lookout for the part 2 next week. I intend to be very open about it.

[@akositararama5492]

I appreciate the experience you shared. I loved the bit where you said, that your husband leads and you follow. Indeed when God is the foundation anything is possible. May God continually bless your family.

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Amen and Amen! Thank you so much 💓

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Glad you find it insightful and all the best with your plans to join us here in Australia! 🙂

[@abolanlenoble.9374]

I can relate with your feeling “ Like a fish out of water”. I live in canada and am going through exactly same situation. I really hoped I will get over the feelings soon

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

It will get better with time Abolanle 🙂

[@deokanonga7527]

I really love that part You talked about involving God in the process, I love the positivity You are giving in your video, You give us hope to believe that we too can and will make it very soon.

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Reading this makes me truly glad 🙂

So first of, you are so beautiful Bisola!!! And your hair, absolutely stunning 😍😍😍 I need your hair plug please 🥺. To the business that brought me here, lol OMG. I honestly felt like you were talking about my experience in Canada (well, except for the "warm winter" bit there 😭). Thankfully, our bodies are built to acclimatize to environmental conditions we thought we couldn't have survived. A few things. People underestimate the power of involving God in their decisions and choices, especially on matters as important as immigration. Committing the process into God's hands as a couple, months before we officially began the process, is something I will forever be grateful of . Everything just seemed to easily fall into place from there on. Personally, moving to a system that works and also not having that Naija support system at your beck and call definitely messes one's mind and makes you question so many things 😩😭. A big part for me is how religion is practiced in Nigeria, especially by the big churches. Maybe one day I will have answers, and maybe not. And maybe this is just a phase for my husband and I, but anyway... The system just works here, and over 3 years later I see why it can be easy for people to just walk out on their beliefs. Thankful for a somewhat strong religious foundation that I can always fall back on when my brain seems to be clouded. And yes, there are bad people everywhere too. You just have to decide which bad has a better chance of giving you and your family the opportunity at a better quality of life. 😭 (hopefully this makes sense). Thank you for sharing your experiences, I am now definitely looking forward to the "dignity of labour" video.

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Awwh, thank you so much Tola! I appreciate you. You've definitely hit the nail on the head there! Yes, I intend to be very open with these conversations as I know many other immigrants struggle! Please be on the lookout for the next video. Thanks for watching 🥰🥰

[@bealambwouldya]

I’m planning to move to Australia 🥰my flag will be 🇦🇺 soon

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Australia is lovely. You will enjoy it here 🙂

[@AgentAO7]

Thank u for sharing your life story in Australia. Im currently in the process applying for immigration there. I’m sure it ‘s going to be an adjustment. But I’m excited for the change. I’m used to living abroad anyway.

[@shaunmckenzie5509]

The reason they asked you to repeat yourself is because some african accents are actually difficult for us to understand. Not because we're being rude. We don't hear african accents very often in our day to day lives. The reason they understand you easily now is probably because your accent has changed, even if you havent realised it. Happy to hear you've found a community here

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Thanks Shaun

[@oluwatobiandre1803]

Nice content babe....me I sha kept looking at your hair all through

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Hahaha! Thanks for watching sis

[@RyanLye1975]

Uh ... Yeah... difference is ... in some of those .. uh ... "lowly" jobs ... Well ... some of them are quite HIGHLY paid. Product of powerful Unions of the 1970s and 80s.

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Quite right Brian

[@ayodamopeadedeji]

This is nice. I love the biblical passage you added in the description box. I have made it a point to seek the Holy spirit on this journey. Hope to connect with you when we finally land....

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Awwh, thank you. Absolutely, we must seek the Holyspirit through it all. Please feel free to reach out when you're here 💗

[@andre_tube..]

Really informative video. Please any idea on any WhatsApp groups we can join(for people planning to settle in Australia) or how we can find those groups, scoured the internet, haven't found😂

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

I'm sure there are a few here and there... I would recommend checking Nairaland 👍

[@andre_tube..]

@@AbisolaOluOjo Thank you

[@samueleyereolaitan1109]

Good morning ma I love looking at ur video more pls ma I live in Nigeria as I told u before I want to live in Australia ma how can u help me.I am married but not yet give birth meaning ma can I go with my wife to Australia

[@Josh-rn1em]

Our culture was born from the horror of englands class system. So we didnt care about it so much. Rich and poor can have a beer. Cant do that in many countries. We are all true blue if born here. Still have to deal with difficult people every so often. Haha

[@australasiafy]

Is that whatsapp group still active ma?

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Hmmh, I doubt it. We left the group after a while. If you're Nigerian, please check the Nairaland Travel forum. You'll probably find one to join there.

[@spiritinmotion1327]

The WhatsApp group got filled up too quickly. There is a Telegram group that came from the Nairaland Australia DIY thread.

[@australasiafy]

@@spiritinmotion1327 thanks so much

[@RyanLye1975]

You have a very distinct, pronounced and unusual accent which is why other English speakers have difficulty understanding you.

[@AbisolaOluOjo]

Thanks Brian. Other English speakers have very distinct, pronounced and unusual accents too.

[@fitafricanmom629]

@@AbisolaOluOjo unusual accent? Maybe you need to open your mind and travel abit more

[@mithrasrevisited4873]

Faith, believing things without evidence. Investigate the bible and how it was made to realise how man made it is.

[@spiritinmotion1327]

Faith is not believing things without evidence, its believing or agreeing with God's word based on your inner consciousness of him and revelation of his person to you. My wife has such close relationship with God she sometimes sees things and can describe them vividly before they happen. I believe in science but much more in God and both beliefs are not contrary to each other(ignorant men on both sides of the belief did that). Science is yet to explain individual consciousness to us - the beginning and the absence of it.
