    I am from the US and I’m so glad you don’t showcase large commercial properties, hotels etc… The are boring and lack character. Ghana greatest resource is the people and culture. I love the rapport you have with the people you interview it comes easily. The people and places you showcase are treasures. Keep up the incredible work. 🥰

    Hi Jasmine, This is so refreshing. I worry that people want to flock to or return to Ghana to recreate a western lifestyle ergo huge house, nice car and other modern conveniences without thinking about the environmental and social impact on pre existing communities. This retreat is wonderful.

    Hi Jasmine, this video is absolutely awesome! I watched it over breakfast. I do enjoy videos of hotels etc because in the western world the main media do not advertise a lifestyle to suggest black people can rest, relax and shop. This is where your educational vlogs is essential. We would never know about the islands if people like you never bothered to showcase the other facets of Ghana. Thank you for interviewing this family. I certainly appreciate it and I will visit them when I visit Ghana. Keep up the good work. Greetings from 🇬🇧.

Did I hear Kwame say the pythons on the other island are friendly🤣🤣🤣🤣 Kwame is right modern life is killing people before their time and not living as well as they can. Somehow we forget our interconnectiveness to everything on earth and how acknowledging that fact has a positive effect on ourselves and our wellbeing. I think I have foubnd my tribe in Kwame, Alberta and Rita❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍

    Atakpame were buildings that were built by artisans from Atakpame in then Dahomey, now Republic of Benin.
    They traveled to Ghana, then Gold Coast to ply their trade (building houses with earthen mud)
    Because it was their specialty. they were invited seasonally to build houses sometimes for food and cash by mostly cocoa farmers during the cocoa season and after their harvest.

    absolutely my speed and my likes, I once told my dad after he retired 57 years from a job where he was so happy and looked forward to going to every day and unwillingly became a stepsister's babysitter in retirement days, that he was now "living to die." He stops having life shine through his eyes.... it was and still is sad.
    People keep having an opinion about me buying a home instead of building and I refuse to agree. Everywhere is bland, with no space and no trees. I need to have nature around me. Thank you I will now look for the intro to this video.

She said both of them would come to the USA but I told her that her Mother must live the Rest of her life where She wants to live and they must be together and not Separated!! So if my New Mother- in-law changes her mind and desires to and prefers to live in Ghana?? I told my Fiance we have to live there!! Before all this happened I was hoping to leave the USA for good but had no idea about Ghana but I have been doing Research !! So the Decision is not mine !! But truly up to them and the Lord who We Both know brought Us Together!!! So, Please if you're a praying person ?? Will you Pray For Us !!!🙏 🙏 🤲 🙏
