    I really enjoyed your video this week!!! You all are naturally funny. I love 💕 that Chale T-shirt 🙌🏾. I was extremely happy to hear you all are in the Greater Houston area (so am I). 🤗. My last child just graduated from high school in June and we just applied for his passport at the Post Office on Friday; which we had to make an appointment for, but it was quick. Since we already had his passport photo and documents ready, we were done in 15 minutes. 🙏🏾. I will be following you all closely and I am looking forward to the upcoming video about moving costs, especially shipping. I’m assuming you all will be using the Port of Houston to ship to Ghana (if services are offered). I pray you all don’t have to wait too long before the borders open since both of you cleared you calendars 🥺! Oh yeah, thanks for sharing the bloopers too! Funny stuff 🤣🤣🤣.

      The outtakes made me laugh, so I figure why not include them?!? In the meantime, I am glad to hear you're taking steps to make your move happen. We will be posting that cost video next month as we figure out the real costs and weigh them out.
      Thanks for following along and I hope we meet (in Ghana)!

    Ayo- you said your Dad is Nigerian - Ghanaian what does that mean?? ( on Ivy's channel) Are his parents Naija and Ghanaian- or his lineage came from Nigeria and settled in Ghana long ago? I am just intrigued by that. You have a Yoruba name so I guess your Dad is repping his ancestral tribe.
    I like your couple vibes. Will keep watching and hope the borders open soon. All the best!!

      Great suggestion and one we will be taking advantage of (I hope) so that we can travel more freely in the future (by taking advantage of ECOWAS). We have already started gathering all the needed documents so that we can get that ball rolling. Great tip, though, for anyone else out there who is thinking about traveling to Ghana and has a lineage!

As a college instructor, I also work with a select group of foreign exchange international students, who have gone back to their respective countries. Ghana being one of them. These students help provide community service through my non profit here, but they serve in Ghana. Myself and a group of my non profit partners plan on going to Ghana either in 2021 or shortly thereafter. Check out what my non profit has done in Houston and in Ghana by searching on Facebook and Instagram “Kids Lives Matter International”.
