What’s the best way to build friendships as a migrant?


In this episode, we dive into the heart of a question many face when moving abroad: Should you stay within your comfort zone or step out to connect with people from different backgrounds?

Mike sits down with Tari, a Nigerian lawyer based in Berlin, and Richard, a Nigerian policy consultant from Paris, to discuss their personal experiences navigating friendships and social circles across Europe.


Here’s What We Cover:

    • How easy (or hard) it is to make friends in Europe
    • Why some people stick to only their own community
    • Whether integration is intentional or just happens with time
  • The role of culture, language, and even food in forming friendships
