Nigerians do not celebrate Halloween. October 31st is just a normal day where people wear normal clothes. I had the luck of eating more sweets than usual though because it’s my little host sisters 7th birthday tomorrow and she is bringing goodie bags for her friends at school. So happy halloween to all you crazy people out there, especially you Madisonians.

i asked my host mom if she knew anything about halloween, and she had never heard of it. i tried to explain it, but she just laughed and looked very confused. and then i tried to tell her that my little brother is dressing up as a sand trooper from star wars, but she’s never heard of star wars.
first holiday abroad – check.
