When was the last time you went back?

[PrinceDaadi]

aside from security, many members cant visit due to cost, visiting Somalia from the west is financially very expensive.

As I thought as well, but this thread seems to be proving otherwise.

M not sure how reliable it is or if Sneters can be a complete sample but i know large number of ppl who wana visit back but cant due to lack of money.

Somebody who lives in Europe who doesnt work and live on cayr which barely covers his/her life can afford 2k or more to visit back home while ppl back home r calling him day and night?

[DisplacedDiraac]

From what I've seen it's the European Somalis who go back home the most frequent.. Maybe it's cheaper for them..

Last time I went back was 2008.. Planning to go next summer Inshaa'Allah..

Yes, that is a question I've had myself for years. You can also throw in the number of folks who frequent the Emirates.

But yeah, I think the majority of those living here do not have the stability for frequent travel. To anywhere, really.

Quite possible. Europe is usually the halfway when flying from North America.

Also as Daadi mentioned,finances play huge role. The airline ticket is the easiest part of it.

From the expected gifts to most people having families/relatives who directly relies on them; it becomes a luxury.
