Glad to hear that!!! Now once you settle in USA. Identify a local church you will be a member of. Speak to the Pastor/rev. about you volunteering as a part time cleaner and using the church as a reference of you cleaning services. This will be part of your reference point if you encounter someone who may want a reference of your work. Or the one question do you have a cleaning experience??? you can refer to your church....one thing I discovered was working in the house of God comes with its own blessings!!!! Or alternatively you can volunteer with one of the many local charity organizations as a part time cleaner who can be your reference point.....hope it works out for you it did work out for me!!!! all the best....buddy

I don't have any cleaning experience but I will do as you said.I can start with the church or join a local charity organization.Thanks for this idea.I hope and pray it works.
 
Well booking won't do much harm...it is just a booking which will eventually get kicked out of the system in a couple of days...hehe

Hey guys, am kind of considering using klm offer which is available till 24th March 2014 to do my booking. Fear is that you dont sail through the interview and are placed on AP. But those deals are supper good. $1200 - $1800 return to most states!! one way is abit higher and would therefore prefer using IOM deal.

What are your thoughts?
 
Hey guys, sorry been abit mia. trying to focus on other things as well to make the time pass faster and it helps me feel the journey is slightly shorter. @Beth02 wow congrats you have made it to the other end!!May The Almighty be with you and your young ones
@Nairobba glad you had a detour in London, am jealous abit.
@Beth02 and Nairobba By the way how much were you charged for the flight and was it through IOM?

@Family2133 and DV2014 UG crew that met up for the farewell am touched at the solidarity may it be so with the rest of us in our countries.

To all the new members welcome and stay in touch

To the alumnis of DV2013 and DV2012 that drop by and give us advise like @Nickelly and the rest be blessed may God continue to open your doors and flood you with blessings in abundance.

By the way am also abit obsessed about weather simply because am already so used to hot and humid weather here in Mombasa, if I can get a similar weather the better but if not I shall get used to it. Lucky for me I hear Sandiego California has very good weather am buzzing!!!

I think the IOM deal is way better cz its cheaper and will save you lots of money, considering you really need to save alot as you head to start a fresh life else where, but as Jonge had advised earlier there is no harm in booking :)

He was once featured on CNBC, his Restaurants are taking over every street corner in states....would love to try some burritos etc...At least I had done TGIFridays in Europe...All the best buddy!!! with food experiments hope you don't run out of pocket money....:cool: will PM you my conyacts....Laters

One of my greatest nightmares is the ability to cope not only with the weather and adaptation-FOOD IS SCARY (I love African dishes especially mine so badly)
 
Food is scary....True!! well your african food will be available if you live near west african shops, pakistani, indian or some Jamaican shops. In Europe some supermarkets had a world food section...you could get african, indian etc food stuff. Anyone who has come across this in US supermarkets???. Eating healthy is expensive abroad....especially what they call Organic.... You will mostly likely eat GMO and Corn/extracts made Products. You will just have to cope, gaining some weight is almost guaranteed unless your body metabolism is special...Just develop a body exercising routine....when you land there!!!

Always trust in the lord..

Philippians 4:6-7
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus..



Have a blessed day,all the best to those who received the 2nd Letter,and for us back benchers be encouraged by the above verse.

Gdday to you all.
 
Not to worry so much, you will find food from your home country even if its a bit expensive, and fresh food from farmers market. I loved fried ripe bananas the last time i was in Djeuga Palace Yaounde.

Many many thanks & much gratitude to all guys in this forum for your prompt contributions. I personally will like to give thumbs up to Jonge, Mush & Jorj.

I will like the input of the following:-

Is there any problem if you present to a CO a police certificate (certificate of good conduct) and a sworn affidavit of names that's more than 6 mths old frm the date of issue?

Lastly as regards a sworn affidavit of names, which one is mostly preferred by COs between one that originates & bears a seal of a registered & authorized commissioner for oaths or from a seal of any high court signed by a Magistrate.

Yeah
but not all there are certain dishes like 'water fufu and eru" which i dont think one can find if only u ve heard about it. No doubt it is ther but the eru is dried which does not taste thesame. Yeah fired ripe plantain we call it 'dodo' is pretty nice especially with roasted fish
Thx so much Akelloh for the comforting message
Gud day folks
