Merry Christmas and a Happy new year to you all. We hope you are able to make the best out of the season. Some of us will be able to go back home and some will not. If you will be in the UK during the holidays, here are some ideas to make your holiday feel like you are at home. Sometimes, buying a ticket on Christmas Day might be cheaper for you so if you can’t bear it anymore, check for last minute deals on Christmas Day but remember the day will be over and your reality awaits you.

Make video calls back home

Dress up like you would in Nigeria

Go visiting or have sleepovers, your friends here are your new family

Find a Nigerian church to attend this season, it will make you feel like you are at home

Look online or listen out for any Nigerian parties in UK and attend

Cook or order Nigerian foods like jollof rice etc and have them in your freezer so you can indulge when you need to

Call your parents and do video call preferably.

We wish you an enjoyable time
