Thank you so much for having me Vanessa! Can’t wait to do more ❤️
Thanks for sharing your story
We waiting for more
what school are you in?
I appreciate your openness. Thank you cutie pie.
Kwabena Boateng Hi Kwabena! Living in a country as a multiracial and/or foreigner is definitely an interesting experience it’s been different for me and all my other biracial friends. It also depends on your circumstance, “are you in an international school?”, “are you in the city or the suburbs?” It might be a lot to explain here I can definitely make a video talking about this if it helps❤️
Ghanaian mothers do not only cook for their families but who ever is around is invited what a beautiful culture.
They always over cook so anyone that visit unannounced is never left out
I think that's what most cultures do...
Lol yea being a Ghanaian is fun and heart warming.
I'd say its majority of the African culture..
@@seunamusan6359 no
Marintia❤️ I met your dad in his hostel last two months and he talked so much about you and even showed me your UA-cam channel. He's so proud of you.
Africans tend more to accept mixed race as their own. Hence, the reason u feel more comfortable with them and vice versa.
Or maybe it’s because a lot of Africa was colonised so they favour fairer skinned people so it’s not really about acceptance tbh it’s quiet sad
@@AAA-we2st l don't agree. Africans are generally accommodating of others. I recalled many decades ago when black Americans did not want to associate themselves with Africans or African despite the fact that Africans were willing to accept them with open arms. They saw themselves as superior to Africans and white in black skin. However, as they were not accepted by white and racial intolerance that we are still witnessing was not abetting they, including the mixed race started moving towards Africans and started calling themselves "Afro-Americans" instead of "Black Americans" for their identity. Despite the way we were treated we still welcomed them. U know have many Afro-Americans and mixed race settling in Africa and calling the place their home because they are not being accepted anywhere else.
Olu akinwale it doesn’t matter if you disagree or not tbh, I’m biracial myself my mother is Ghanaian and my father Egyptian and I’ve had first handed experiences myself of being favoured because of my complexion, it doesn’t come from acceptance, it stems from Africans believing fair skin equals beauty hence why skin bleaching is so popular
@@AAA-we2st definitely right
aayesha hamidu snyper True that. A lot of Africans suffer from inferiority complex
You can just about hear the Ghanaian accent when she pronounces certain words,good for her...
I like that one of her long-term goals is to bring some businesses to Ghana. I like her.
Yes sir! that means a lot when young people are looking forward to build and support their Roots.
She has a lovely spirit.
True! You can see it through her
Big up to Mama Africa 🇬🇭🇯🇲🇸🇳 sending love from Jamrock! Can’t wait to visit more African Countries.
I think this is my first time of seeing offspring of an African and Japanese. She looks stunningly beautiful. I know how Japanese look from movies and videos. Wish her the best in her endeavors.
Terrance Coleman spare me this. It will be a long essay
Terrance Coleman Consider sending to me some of the geld. Hibernating in the house for now because of Covid19
Terrance Coleman if you eat monkey, it might probably be it. But hey this time no. Geld is German for money. Kidding though.
@Terrence Coleman are you in the 🇺🇸
@Terrance Coleman Just saw this write up from you, and I think you have totally misunderstood me for saying that I know how Japanese look like from some movies that I have seen. Remember I did not state that I know how Japanese look like from a specific movie. Here you are equating what I wrote with you saying it’s like you saying that you know how Blacks look like from Tarzan movie. Please, Please don’t put words in my mouth. Your thought and my thought are in parallel movement to each other. I don’t deal in racist talk because I know very well that I cannot produce a hair strand of a human being. The Almighty God created all things and saw them to be good. I can sometimes deduct if someone is Chinese, Arabian, Indian, Japanese, European etc from their looks and I know many people do have those abilities. That was all that I meant. We Africans can even from facial outlook tell the country or tribe our fellow African comes from. I don’t deal in racist talk please. If I had seen this post of yours earlier, my reply to your posts to me would have been different. My policy has been to be very civil on the web all the time.
You should interview my friend Mabel Huang.
She's half Chinese-half Ghanaian, speaks Chinese and a couple of Ghanaian languages as well.
She's a complete character to go for.
This is so exciting for me to see. I have close friends who are Japanese/Zimbabwean, Korean/Ghanaian and will share this with them. The Japanese or Asian and African mixes produces some amazingly beautiful children eh.
I am Polish AND Ghanaian and also grew up, like you, with many others of the same mix, also initially in Poland and then Ghana and then some more Poland, now in the US. I will never exchange the experience for anything. People used to be confused, wondering how one can be from both places, but I never wavered in that I am BOTH. Never only one or the other (I guess having both experiences gave me that conviction). The two cultures differed in many ways but overlapped in the most bizarre aspects at times.
My upbringing instilled in me a level of confidence that I am so grateful for. It was especially beneficial to me when I moved to the USA. We grew up being the "black/brown" ones in Poland, the only blacks I must add, and the "obronis" (white persons) in Ghana. See why you should never rely on others to determine who you are? wink wink.
Being the only blacks in Poland meant we got a lot of attention and stares, comments were 99% positive. I would hear all the white women in our town and village say "oh my god, how I wish my skin could tan like that," or "how I wish my hair could curl like that" or "look at those pearly white lovely straight teeth."
We had many ignorant questions about Africa, but not meant in an offensive way. People had no internet back then and there was nothing on TV about life in Africa until Later when scenes of hunger appeared. Then they would say, when we visited for vacation, "please stay, I hear there is so much hunger in Africa." Ironically we had had a few comments from Ghanaians when we mentioned our upcoming trip to Poland; "why are you going to Poland? People are starving there and have to queue for food." "its a communist country!!" That was in the 80s during and after the strikes in Poland.
We were often asked which country we preferred. Our answers: It depends on what -Food, weather, recreational activities etc. We said we don't have everything we like in one place but a bit of everything in both countries. That was our reality.
I used to be pissed, as a child, when Polish people said "you are Polish because your mama is Polish," and the Ghanaians would say "you are Ghanaian, because your dad is Ghanaian." Now It does not bother me--even though I never felt the need or void of acceptance this experience is indeed "acceptance from both sides." Either side wanting to claim you.
I experienced racism (the most talked about topic in the US now) only when I got here, but, unfortunately for the racists, my formative years were rooted in confidence so I am woke with my nose in the air.
Sorry for taking up so much space. These are MY experiences.
It's a good read. You're a winner ❤
I enjoyed reading!
I feel you..I'm half Japanese and half Ugandan..I'm grateful you have shared your experience cause I feel we have both gone through the same thing in life..Except I have not experienced racism rather its *tribalism* in Uganda
Mixed race is mixed race, you are not mainly one or the other.
You are unique and very special.
The world need to respect and identify with the mixed heritage's.
Well done, you remain blessed and highly favoured.
🤗🙏🏼🥀🌹💞
I really enjoyed reading your comment
I am African Zimbabwean and l always respect Ghanaian people, always Ghanaian people are calm ,good listeners well cultured and its one of the most country l respect 🙌 👏
If I recall correctly, president Robert Mugabe's first wife was Ghanaian. So... I can understand 😊
Am Nigerian/Russian and Quater Lithuanian currently living in Germany but am light blonde. Although I consider myself Black cause my dad Black and I find it unique🙏🙏👌👌
Oh wow that is interesting 😂😂 how old are u
You are actually biracial not black
@@msrenee7023 and what sre you?
You are mixed not black...
Bro we need to see a picture of you. This is very interesting👀
Aww I loved watching this. She is such a sweet woman, absolutely stunning too. I love how your face just lights up Vanessa, I can tell you are loving what you are doing. Truly inspiring 💜
I love her worldly perspective. Even with myself being Black/African American and have been in Ghana the past 6 months (blessfully extended by covid) My realizations haven’t been keen on how different we are by how lost I my people are and how much has been taken from us (blacks in America). From the language, culture, all round lifestyle. I’m eager to see my future children will be growing up in Africa and knowing where they truly come from ❤️🌍👸🏾🤴🏾
They're always welcome. B L A C K I S B E A U T I F U L 🖤
Are you indirectly using this platform to promote your availability to date or something? If so then say it directly so potential suitors are aware to ask you out on a date without circling the moon and back
Social Justice Ok ok yeah you caught me.. I am searching but NOT desperate haha. I have plenty Ghana vlogs on my channel about some of my experiences so far 🇬🇭 checkout if interested all of my social media is in the description 🤴🏾 ua-cam.com/video/BNCdhRNbfqo/v-deo.html
😍😍😍😍I miss home so much😢😭🇬🇭🇬🇭 and can't wait for this lockdown to be over in the UK
Same girl I literally had a trip planned for this summer
Same from the 🇬🇧🇬🇭
It’s always interesting to learn about other people’s life experiences. Good work Vanessa.
I love your interviews Vanessa.. am so glad she experienced her Ghanaian root.. same way am trying to nature my kids to embrace their Ghanaian root. Thanks Vanessa. You doing wonderful.
Good to nature your kids in that Ghanaian culture and tradition
i love that you two made this video. the struggle for biracial kids isn't highlighted enough. i can't imagine being pulled in both directions when you just want to belong. i am so glad Marintia was able to settle really well. LOVE this video so much
I love Japan because of their culture and cause I love anime...
And Ghanaian culture is so rich but as an Italian Ghanaian I realized it only when I was out of Ghana and I grew closer to it
Likewise I learnt the languages (twi and Ga) and even pidgin.
Love your story❤️
Did you learn the language yourself or was it from birth?
@@jasonthomasmt born in Italy so I spoke Italian primarily. We spoke GA at home so I picked it up and I came to Ghana to learn Twi
Victor Cartey oh wow that’s amazing!
Ciao Victor ,il tuo paese mi sembra davvero bello ,e come vedo ora in questo video e in altri sembra essere o diventare multiculturale ,mi piacerebbe un giorno fare una vacanza in ghana ,magari anche rimanerci :)
@@abigailasare5514 ofaan3 33n menuuo GA 😂👍🏾
She looks Japanese to me. Just with darker skin and thicker hair.
True she has a very japanese face, just look at her eyes
@Scorpionic stop lying lol, east asian features are the only ones that dominate west african features
@Scorpionic Yes there definitely is. I can tell east Asians apart, it's obvious to me that she is Japanese mixed.
@@colorfulcodes Yup way to obvious she’s mix
So interesting to hear her perspective of living in both Ghana and Japan...two amazing countries!
Love this interview and her story. Now is the time for different and substance. Love this.
Her diversity is her beauty , it's not a curse and shouldn't be.
You were created unique to look different from the rest not by mistake and indeed you are unique.
Wow this statement.
facts
I'm happy to see Ghanaian
Sisters.Ghana is so sweet
Africa is sweet have a bussinesx a house or home of urs then u will be kings and qeens thank me later
When she says waakye the first thing that comes on my mind is Reggie Rockstone 😂😂😂😂 waakye
Oh Seidu, Regi be legend oh. That is not fair 😕
You work you do on your channel here is special. Always enjoy the great content you put out.
Excellent Interview. Really enjoyed it.
Great Segment👌You do great interviews with nicely choreographed follow up questions.
another great interview💛
I can so well relate to what she is saying at 5:35, though I'm born of African parents. My mom is Cameroonian and my dad Nigerian. I was born and raised in Cameroon and after my primary school education, my parents sent me to a boarding school in Nigeria where I did my first three years of secondary education. In the Cameroonian community my siblings and I were always looked at as Nigerians, while amongst Nigerian we were referred to as Cameroonians. We just felt we didn't belong anywhere. I was blessed to have wonderful siblings and parents so we enjoyed growing up with the love in our home. Now living in and a US Citizen I see a whole different issue going on - white /black and I have come to the conclusion that life is simple but it is in the nature of humans to complicate even the simplest issues of life.
I really enjoy listening to her talk about her life experiences, plus, she appears to be very well-rounded, confident, well-spoken and on top of all that’s, you are very beautiful. Young lady you represent yourself very well.
Good to see you connect with people of African/Other descent, African/English here! keep up the good work!
I absolutely love when Ghanaian’s mix being able to have dual heritage is such a blessing because you get best of both worlds as well as being more open minded ❤️ well in some cases
Fantastic!! Can totally relate to her 😃 im also half Ghanaian, half Ukrainian and had a similar experience. Great video 🥰🥰🥰
I really enjoyed watching this video 👍
I absolutely love this channel !
It's so great to have her . I have mixed niece's and nephews from USA, south America England and Germany . Some live in Ghana . Awesome
interesting conversation and video there , i enjoyed it ., keep it going
Got recommended this video. I LOVE IT!!! 🙌🏾❤️
Loved this interview. So cool
This Ghana/Japan combination really makes her look so pretty. after the lockdown I'm going to Japan.
😂
Dude you wanna knock down a Japanese girl?
Ghanaian community in Japan here🇬🇭🇯🇵!yaaay! @Marintia keep the fire burning 🔥
Hey
@@maryannbrandon4963 hey
I like this interview a lot. The experience is noteworthy. I hope to visit Japan soon. I was in Ghana few years ago..lovely people.
Woow! What an interesting mix! I'm 💯 Ghanaian and super excited to see this video! 😁 Anybody else from the motherland? 🇬🇭 💕
U have our support sis😍😘😋... Go for Afirca
I love this interview. Make sure you guys stake out your ancestral land in Ghana.
soo cool. I been to Japan, and I am visiting Ghana on March 1st can't wait
Loved this, thanks for sharing!
Point of correction: Obroni does not mean 'a foreigner' but any person who has lighter light skin than the usual.
It depends on the context. Even some Ghanaian people are called obroni because of the way they behave/speak.
The word has evolved and still continues to
It doesn't mean skin colour alone. It has evolved. The word obroni itself seems a young word
Means obroni
@@insuadam6958 who told you that?
That's misinformation.
Even when a person is very black and beautiful we call them "tuntum broni" to wit black beauty.
So where did you get your info from?
@@hallanti i definitely agree. Even though I am a dark skinned Ghanaian from Britain . When I do go to Ghana I am referred to as a tumtum broni based on my mannerisms and how I articulate my words.
Your mixture is just really beautiful, Japanese +African mixture not very common 🥰🥰🥰
🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you ❤️
Go to Hawaii.
@kimpa Kembo did he really said that ?
@Open Ranks Yup ! it's very common. A friend of mine is in Japan right now making a black biracial baby with a Japanese girl he met.
Vanessa Kanbi, thank you for sharing dear....
Great interview!
Well then this is going to be your first meeting me. I’m half Taiwanese Half Ghanaian
Oh wow
Wow that's really cool!! There are not many Ghanaian in Taiwan.
bethany wiafe yup
Hung Yeh , it’s possible
pink girl, my dad
I was on Kokusai street in Tokyo and I heared "3ha y3 d3 ooo b3biaa awu".I was like what?.went to check it out and it was a strip of Ghanaian stores. There a lot of Ghanaians in Japan and I met some at Roppongi too
Yea you right, Love and brotherhood is the blessing we have in Africa
Great interview & response well spoken 💯
I was born in Holland, in 1994 we moved to Ghana and I stayed there for 5 years because I was a borderline delinquent. My parents were strict but, I was hardheaded and so I was also migrated to Ghana as a form of punishment to straighten me out. All I can say is, in my 2nd year of being there, I understood. Ghana also opened my mind and I became wiser through my experiences. Teachers didn't like me not necessarily because I was Western but, because I was a rude and an intelligent kid but mentally lazy kid and they saw me wasting it. They did a fine job, stomping that out of me with discipline. In my 3rd year, I was a straight A student with responsibilities and utmost respect for my teachers and peers alike. One thing that also contributed to that growth was my involvement in Boys Scout. This is one of my most cherished memories whilst in Ghana. The community we had was unmatched.
In Ghana, you don't go hungry. Everyone is family and any elder is akin to a dad. If you were caught in some misdemeanor, any parent could drag your arse to your parents with a few slaps up their head and then tell your parents what has been, your own parents would then also agree with the fair punishment and then continue to give you a good fatherly and motherly whooping in front of the other parents. In the West, one may think it's public humiliation but, that's exactly what makes people better unless they are not remorseful.
Everyone watches the other, hence the terminology "konkonsa", for those that are familiar with that saying. The best community and love I experienced was when i moved with my family in Kumasi for like 5months.I never realized how big a family I had. My mother's family is BIG, I can't begin to explain how big even but, that's another story.
Ghana is great, I haven't been back for over 18 years and I'm now preparing to revisit. I'd like to retire there.
We have an 8 bed room home which is being refurbished as it got partially burned by family members we kept in the home, whilst in Europe. Now it's been expanded to 8 from 4 rooms. It's a big project and I can't wait.
Wow🤣🤣
Awwwnn such a beautiful story you have. 😊🤗
It no be small essay u rep for here....
I’m from Holland as well born 1999 and moved to Ghana in 2012 January without warning lol, my mum lied to me that we were going on holidays but she planned to stay there so I lived there for almost 4 years and went to Alpha Beta and they used to call me Obronii and “fresh boy” cause I looked lightskin even though my both parents were Ghanaian, I had a mixed experience though because I loved my friends and the country but moving to another country without warning and saying goodbye to my friends affected me hard because I wanted to be a footballer but Ghana dismisses those chances mostly and apart from school I didn’t have friends around my area so it was just me and my PlayStation so felt kinda lonely
@@Boampong555 oh saa.... 😅 U naa u no wan paddies
My favourite thing about Japan when I lived there was how helpful everyone was! Especially the koban in the neighbourhood since there were no street names I would always get lost (google map wasn't a thing back then) so I would just find the koban and the police officers would always help me or if someone saw me looking for something in the streets they'd always take me where I wanted to go.
Such a beautiful girl and spirit 💕so happy to find this!
Great interview. Love her spirits
The young lady is very intelligent, attractive, and has a great personality.
I can't help but to think about my daughter who is also biracial ( African American and Chinese).
I wish her much success. Be well and stay safe in the United States!
Sweet girl. She made me miss Ghana
Lovely person inside and out. I too lived in Ghana and Japan as a child and gained a lot of. exposure .Really helps you to be open minded and accept and enjoy other cultures.
Just stumbled across your channel! Been watching a lot of Wode Maya and it's changing the vids that are being recommended to me. Boy am I glad. this video was amazing! Nice background music (yes I pay attention to those details) and very informative. Great interview too you do a good job. It was just a relaxed video and nicely edited too!
Will subscribe to you both. 🤗🤗
GOD bless ✌🏿
I'm very happy right now.. hearing my country name.. GHANA 🇬🇭
I praise the father for bringing her so closer. The fatther's influence on the daughter is huge as well. Good father !!
It’s just the weird feeling of knowing that I just found Marintia’s channel, I’m really enjoying her *content* (lol), and found out she was at the college that I live down the street from. Also finding out that one of the most famous vtubers, who’s also half Japanese, grew up here too. Just thinking about it, there’s so many things that Japan had contributed to my childhood so far.
Lucky you.
Enjoying your chat.
God Bless.
She's pretty
I didn't even realize this was Vanessa's channel lol
I'm glad you ladies linked up
Speak Twi? Speak Japanese?
Aawww it's great to have you dear, you'll love Ghana
Subscribed because of Wode Maya promoting helping each other. You have great content, keep sharing!!
She is so cute i love her smile
Bless her. I pray her goals come true and she is able to build in Africa.
Also I hope Asians will not mess it up for other Asians that love Africa and wants to do amazing things in Africa. Racism is every race responsibility.
Hey sister keep it up, be Ghanaian it is giving to be great a country, many people are moving in from US
Again am reaching out to you guys on here, good for you girls lucky you guys had your parents worked hard to raise you and here you are doing all this fancy and videos of educating Ghanaians, I challenge you guys to reach and to help the group of Ghana Japan kids who were born in in Accra and Tema and was raised by their moms alone after the Japanese dads had left and went back to Japan, most of them still need up till now to reach out to their dads, I will hope again we can link up and you can use these platform to help out, thanks
Marintia , l hope you get to interview Vanessa soon , I will be looking forward to it. ❤️
🔥🔥❤️WOW that’s is so cool ... My Mom and Dad were living in Osaka , Japan but unfortunately my Mom dead there in Japan. My both parents are Ghanaian tho🔥🔥
So sorry about your mom’s passing
Damn, sorry to hear that.
She looks like my niece awe good video
Loved the interview.
this is such a beautiful video!
WOW THAT'S FANTASTIC
MAY Almighty God bless GHANA and JAPAN.AND ENTIRE WORLD
BEAUTIFUL.
❤️❤️❤️
Ghana loved me, not Japan.
@8:44 As someone who loves for his boundaries to be respected, it seems Japan is the country I've been looking for. Packing my bags. lol
@9:43 One of the very few things I like about Ghana as a Ghanaian is the hospitality. Having visted quite a number, I'd say Ghanaian hospitality is probably unmatched worldwide. Aside that, there's a lot to dislike about the country lol
Am so proud of you may Hod bless you guide you and lead you through your heart desire ❤❤❤
A valuable point. Being stuck up in your ways, traditions etc makes being global & accepting very difficult.
Kudos to her parents for breaking the norm. These are the seeds of tolerance, inclusion and acceptance.
Great interview, one question i still have. does she speak both japanease and Ghanaian local languages ?
I wld hazard a guess and say yes. Most Asians mom speak to their kids in their language. And living there from 2-10 even if she went to international school, she'd still have to learn the language. That's my guess
Acheampong adventures hyyy. I'm a subscribber!
I understand twi and speak Japanese
@@MarintiaEiko oh so you don't speak twi at all?
Marintia Goto-Williams lovely
Highly educated young lady. I love to see that.
That was a great interview, I really enjoyed watching it...big ups Vanessa
This quite interesting. I loved it. Beautiful people....
She looks more african actually I knew a japanese Nigerian girl and she looked fully japanese but couldn't speak japanese and had a full on nigerian accent which often came as a shock to a lot of people but still she like to identify as Nigerian cos she lives there and schools there so even if she looks japanese she likes to say that shes fully Nigerian
Wow! Lol
Ghanaian men even call their girlfriends obroni, is not discrimination. Is just a complement
Sadly yes
I don't see that as a compliment. Using such colourist labels has caused issues for darker skinned women in Africa.
@@mscardioqueen we also dont see it as a compliment
@@mscardioqueen My dear we Ghanaian more often use the name obroni to refer to someone with fair skin. Apart from that we use obroni to refer to a beautiful woman whether light or dark skin.For instance my wife is fair and I refer her as 'me broni' literally meaning my beautiful damsel. In the same vain a friend of mine whose girlfriend is dark refers her as ' me broni' which literally means my damsel. so it is not for discriminatory purpose
That’s not a compliment, sounds like colorism 😕
Nice interview Vanessa 👍
You are doing a great job vanessa.
I have a japanese girlfriend. Met her when I studied in Kobe ( hyogo) . Miss the place
You nor only beautiful, but extremely intelligent young lady. I completely understand the multi-racial vibes.
Seen a few videos of biracial/mixed race people sharing their stories. Insightful to know everyone’s experience😊
This was so much fun!
She's so Ghanaian..
ikr
@william Khims what's up Khims, you know I was only referring to her mannerism, right? They are the beautiful mannerism of a Ghanaian lady. Not sure I know any Japanese mannerisms 🤔
@william Khims so????her father is ghanaian and she has been in ghana for all her life....if she is mixed how does that change the fact that she is "so ghanaian"??
@william Khims so?is that a problem??
@william Khims Last time I checked, Ghana is in West Africa, where parts of the Jamaican ancestry are from. Hence, Ghanaians have familial claim if they so wish.
'Oboni' 🤔 I think the equivalent of that is 'Oyibo' in Nigeria.
Great video! ❤️
Great Sis. Good richly bless you. Keep it up.
Thank you so much for doing this video. It was very interesting. I'm half Ghanaian, and my mum is French/Irish! They met in the 50's. My dad had just come over from Ghana with a friend of his. I spent most of my life in Ghana on and off throughout my childhood. I went to kindergarten which is where my mum teached also. My mum who was a nurse then started working in the local hospital which was 37 Military hospital in Accra. She didn't need to work as my dad had his own business but she didn't want to sit doing nothing lol. To be honest, being in Ghana were the best days of my life. I love everything Ghanaian, the food, the clothes, the culture, the people, and of course the country. I went to private school whilst when I was 12 and the first school I went to was Archimota. Second was Ghanaian International School, both in Accra. You mentioned you went to a International school was it the same G.I.S. The funny thing is, my husband is from Barbados everyone is surprised I'm the Ghanaian and not him lool. I felt I wanted to put my 2 cents in lol.
Great video and I've just subscribed to your channel.
Take care and keep safe. Oh, I just watched the video with your uncle, auntie, and cousin doing the IG reviews and your uncle was funny. I laughed when he chose the bikini photo of you as one of his favourites and your aunt's face in response 😂😂😂😂. I thought he's in for it now 😂😂😂😂 ❤
