Dear Dayo,

How are you and your family? It’s been ages. How is work and I hope you are enjoying living in Lagos. I got a job from a reputable firm for the position of General Manager over there. I was asked to resume in the next couple of month. I don’t really know what it entails to live in the city and I hope you could shed more light.

Changing of environment has both positive and negative impact on an individual. It bothered me a lot if I could cope with negative aspects. There are so many benefit I enjoy while living in the village which I think it will be different there.

In addition, I would like to ask few questions if you don’t mind. How is the cost of basic amenities like food, shelter, clothing etc? Do you think I would me able to adjust with this lifestyle change am about to embrace ?

I would like to hear your opinion about some of those things I asked. I will be glad if if you can enlighten me about some of the things I need to know about Lagos. Hope to here from you soon.

Yours sincerely

Ade
