The accent was so on point!😂😂😂😂
I'm South African. I really enjoyed that narration. I want to visit Ghana now.
Very authentic narration and representation of Ghanaian Culture...Glad he understood the history behind the various belief systems...He just got the tissue paper and the left-hand part wrong because leaves were used instead back in the day
I love to hear an outsiders perception of my country. Thanks for being blunt with your observations.
I agree Ghanaians are one of the most amazing people. We have much more food varieties in Ghana then Seth mentioned and it is a very modern country. When you are in ghe capital, you will see that, everything you get abroad you can get in Ghana as well. The culture is amazing and I just love it here. As for me, I love fufu very much and we also have different kinds of stews and soups, not all is tomato soup. He should have tried yam chips with grilled fish.
Africans are generally welcoming, friendly and curious about other cultures from abroad
Yeah big bro
you really came to Ghana. Congratulations. U are always welcome to the best Africa Home🇬🇭🇬🇭
The left hand is all about respect and not toilet paper
I love your explanation of things. You really experienced the culture well. Great to see open minded people ❤️
Traditionally, using your left hand to greet, wave, receive items or pass on items is disrespectful. The left hand is perceived to be weaker than the right hand.
Using a right hand is a sign of respect even God Himself uses that word right hand of God. Right people so both physical and spiritually the right things are perfect. And also Ghanaians are respectful
Note: this depends on where you go. Sounds like he went to the more rural areas
Meehn you got the accent really well.
This made me smile. He learnt so much. Love the video
I’m very sure if you stayed longer you would have learnt the local language because your accent is so on point 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ghanaians love pepper😂😂😂😂. But thumbs up,your pronounciation is good
Wow 🤩 it was fascinating listening to you 🌸🌸🌸
Wow Elder Taylor your twi is superb, you are very well spoken. Wa nu ati . 😃🇬🇭
Men you are cool. Thanks for spending some of your time in our part of the world. You are always welcome, that you know already. Cheers.
Thanks for sharing with us God richly bless you and guide you everywhere you are ' God bless our Mother land Ghana
Well done Elder Taylor
Bathroom hygiene: off the grid (secondi takoradi village areas and such) you use dried large leaf from a branch if in the woods, recycled newspaper and toilet paper(mostly community enclosed bore holes), then unbleached toilet paper for water closet types.
Thanks for your take as it's 99% accurate :). Pretty cool 👌
Omg peanut butter soup with goat. Nah I want that bad rn
Banku is corn and little cassava ( in Spanish youka )
Wow he hit the hammer on the nail. Everything is right on point
Oooh Taylor you are very good in speaking twi
Woow.
I love this guy.
Your Twi is so good
Thanks for the video i am planning a trip to Ghana in a couple of months and i want to know which vaccines are required and which ones you recommend.
He is so friendly.
I would love to befriend him.
What's his name please?
First time on the channel and my first video.... have subscribed...Much love from Ghana... Good content
Give this guy a tomb up my fellow Ghanaians 👍👍👍he really did well like other foreign people who still visit countries in Africa like Ghana
You have great clean acent not a joke well done
You knida speak the twi well... you've earned my subscription because of the Twi😂😂😅
I love Ghana. I love Ghanaians. Maybe not the corrupt ones but every country has bad nuts. Would appreciate if you look at our ghana give away. Thanks.
Thank you
I like your honesty because I live in the USA and I always wondered what is the difference between living in Ghana vs the USA.
Thanks
Good commentary
Wow
This guy's understanding of the culture & history & languages is remarkable.
Kudos to the young man
Watching from Sydney Australia
Vivid description. Except the hand thing u said abt our ancestors.... Thank you anyway for sharing
Your twi is great 👍 good job 👏
You're so descriptive. I'm impressed. "Every day, you'll hear pounding!". This is so true!😂😂😂😂. It looks nasty to chew fufu. I like how you were very non-judgemental in your review. Your analysis of food sharing is so in-depth. Wow! You really got the left-hand etiquette wrong. The left hand has always been seen as a weaker hand and disrespectful to use for any group activity.
Your knowledge of Ghana is perfect👍
Reverses "3" and reversed "c" in the alphabet... Pretty impressed
They go to the bathroom on the side of the road in your home country Europe. I was stationed in Germany for 4 years and was shocked seeing grown adults "going" on the side of the road and it's legal.
Omg the guy is so cool 😊
I just like people like this ❤
Informative video
You are doing good
They don't use the left hand because the right hand for spiritual reasons from the past (and present for some), not because they were wiping with their left hand. If you go to the bathroom you use leaves to wipe. I hope you were using your hand out there lol
Bros got the accent 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I like this
You impressed me in most of the things you said. That’s very good of you. The only thing which isn’t more accurate is the banku. It’s a mix of corn dough and cassava dough.😅
I'm a Ghanaian i like ur pronunciation keep it up
Liked this video because he said we put pepper in everything
Great information ...you really learned which means you enjoyed yourself..... Yes they are loving people.... So true...
You really did great. The accent thing was on point and I loved it but the only thing I don't agree to is the left hand thing. Indeed, Ghana is the friendliest country in Africa. In the whole world I mean💖
You pronounce the Twi words so well
Everyday u hear pounding
Banku is a mixture of cassava dough n corn dough
Banku is my favorite
I can just guess exactly what he's going to say next
Also, i quite liked pounding the fufu when i went :)
I chew fufu, my whole family does lol
What happens if a person is naturally left-handed? I can imagine the challenge they would have.
I just do it anyway, don't live there so it's not a normal routine to use my right
I like how he mention the Ashanti to not be violent we respect one and other we don’t want to hurt one and other to get our point across and that’s one of the values of our tribe, but we also don’t tolerate nonsense either if u try us u will be dealt with we don’t fight unnecessarily
My motherland Ghana ✌💃🤩
Your accent is really good
This is awesome. I love your narrative and your pronunciation of the words.
Mate! U leant a lot I like it as white man.
Not aggressive, assertive.
The Ashantis have the "er" problem
What language is he talking about at 16:39
Twi.
You forgot to mention the part where Tarzan wizzed by and invited you to eat caterpillars in his tree house.
0:03 cofin dancers
Would love to talk to this guy...
How long have you been in Ghana
Peanuts and groundnuts are the same thing!?
Hour glass😁😁😁
Why do you call forest areas jungle? 🤔
And we like only hear about Ghana and not vs USA😅😅
What part of Ghana was he in with animals everywhere?
But what if you're born left handed lol
I chew the fufu
Lol
I hate fufu that's just me
Is there white people from Ghana?
You need to visit China
