  • I have been living in Hungary since 2013 and in this video, I talk about 7 differences between living in Nigeria vs Living in Hungary.
    Let me put these two countries into perspective in terms of size and population.
    Nigeria: 201 million people (2019) and occupies an area of 923,768 sq. km
    Hungary: 9.7 million people (2019 census) and occupies an area of 93,030 sq. km. Basically, Nigeria is almost 10 times the size of Hungary.
    I love both countries, they are different with advantages and disadvantages.
    If you have any questions about life in Hungary, send it to me 👉🏽 yabuwatjanet@gmail.com or DM me on Instagram.
    Please thumbs up this video if you liked it.
    Enjoy and Stay safe❣️

    I live in Brisbane, Australia where the summer is ugly, hot & humid for at least 6 months of the year & subsequently the country and everything else looks ugly because of the heat. Unfortunately we only have 2 - 3 months of cool weather where it’s safe to go outdoors without cooking alive…. We have escaped to Hungary or Central Europe to spend our 6+ months of Brisbane summer in the European winter and it was absolutely bliss, if you are cold just get dressed but once you are hot and sweating and you’re naked you have run out of options to stay cool…. In a heartbeat I would live in Europe because it is beautiful and green and it must be a joy to live in 4 seasons… I know the very civilised, educated countries like Scandinavia are very, very clean which is an added bonus to live in a beautiful, green, cool civilised and clean country - my idea of heaven… I have spent about 3 months in Debrecen and I just loooooved it - again I would happily live there. The biggest problem with living at the other end of the world here in Australia is that it is sooooooo far away from Europe or Canada (another beautiful green, cool country) and therefore it is not easy or cheap to get out of here…. Yes, I agree with you about safety in Hungary - we felt much, much safer in Hungary - even Budapest - than in Australia… Sometimes, the grass is greener on the other side…

      Hi Magdalena, thank you for sharing 😊
      It is actually great living in 4 seasons, each season lasting ~ 3 months so you don’t stay in one season for too long especially if it’s one’s least favorite season.
      I lived in Debrecen for almost 4years as a student. it is a calm and clean city, the only challenge at that time was finding work opportunities as a foreigner. Not sure if the situation has improved now.
      Btw, I didn’t know Australia has really hot summers, I had to check the map again 😊

    I am a Hungarian and I have been living abroad for 7 years. So I can understand that it is not easy but you are doing a great job! I really enjoy watching people from other places discovering Hungary and hearing what they think about it. I hope my country is treating you well! Good luck with everything!

      Hi Gabor, thank you for pointing that out. I remember we used to argue about this with a friend. Some say it’s eastern while others say it’s Central Europe. Looking at the map, Hungary is positioned in the central region but some articles online also categorize Hungary as Eastern Europe 🤷🏽‍♀️

    • @gabortoth3706
      @gabortoth3706 3 года назад +7

      @@JanetYabuwat that "eastern categorization" is a political one, because Hungary used to belong to the Warsaw Pact and most of the members of that were Eastern European countries. A lot of people are to careless and didn´t bother to differentiate. As you say yourself, geographically their is no argument, the central point of Europe is in Hungary or neighboring Slovakia, depending on the measuring method and culturally we also belong to the core of Central Europe. The triangle of Vienna, Prague and Budapest are the strongholds of classical central european art and culture. Don´t get me wrong, I didn´t want to attack you, but we hungarians are somewhat offended by being called eastern europeans (not everyone though).
