    I can never trade my Africa for any place in the world. It's the simplicity for me, brings peace of mind. No stress, no depression. Just a simple life, Anna you got to experience it first hand now. It may look ridiculous to someone else who doesn't know the peace of mind that comes with it.

      Hi Anna it's really important to know your history, Afraka's civilisation was in existence when the Western world was derelict, people from around the world travelled to Egypt for 1st class education, Western economy depends HEAVILY on Afraka, (note the original name AFRAKA not AFRICA) and its resources, first Universities were in Afraka, we just need to. Know and Rediscover ourselves, Visit other parts of Afraka continent and squash all those lies you were told. The originality of that part of the world must be kept intact, ask yourself where are some of the Netherlands resources coming from, Afrakan were kept from you for a reason

Now I'm even grateful I come from that rich continent and I'm coming back next month. I remember when one white woman asked me why y'all Africans think America is a better place? We can barely survive here and we are struggling, and y'all come here and struggle 10x worse than us. She said no LIES!!!

    I’m always thankful that I spent my primitive years in Ghana because it honestly builds your self confidence and independence. There is something magical about the African continent. I have lived in the uk over 20 plus years and I always attribute by firm foundation to Africa. You gain so many transferable skills which toughens you but also ensures that nothing brings you down . The West will forever envy us.

    Love this video. This brings memories of Haïti and Curaçao.
    All these items and topics you showed was on these Islands where enslaved descendants of Ghanese, Togolese, Benin, Nigeria, Congo Cameroun people lives.
    The lady beating the "to be" broom, looks like grandma of my wife(Haiti), the broom she is making is being used in Haïti still and only older people in Curacao use it . The straw matras we used to sleep on when we visit family in Haïti. the way they climb the coconut tree is the same they did at grandma her house in Haïti. The cement blocks are being build the same way on certain Carribean Islands, and are the best ones!! Our neighbours in Curaçao did the same way . The same tire toy, was being used to play with in the Carribean, children plays with it in the past.... Oh dear this video shows again that we are family and we are smart

This is exactly in most villages even in Ghana as a whole and other countries too. They have their own innovative ways of preserving food without any refrigerators and modern methods we use today.

    I think the word you were looking for was ''MISCONCEPTION'' and believe me people have that a lot in the west. Most of the innovations you saw today in the west are originated from Africa. People who visit there saw an idea took it to the west and modernized it and turn it into theirs. Also, that tyre you were trying to ride brings back a lot of memory. Back in the days in Africa, I use to ride that to run errands for my parent. That right there was my means of transportation to take me anywhere I was going.

    Once again another powerful video! Take away the modern conveniences that we have gotten used to and let’s see how many people can really survive. Modern conveniences help but when we rely on just them we lose The skills for survival. I also would like to comment on the girls doing the work before they eat I think there should be a little bit given on both sides the boys should learn that girls have qualities they do not have and are able to have innovative ideas and also for the girls it is good for us to keep a little bit of our humbleness and our ability to serve our men because ultimately it helps them do more for us if it is a healthy relationship The men need the women to help them succeed and what woman does not want her man to protect her and care for her? Both of these things have a particular theme I think everything in moderation taking the good and beneficial things from each side and leaving the things that do not benefit behind. My husband is from GHANA as you might know and the wisdom he has from God is amazing I agree with all that you have said and Africans are very intelligent once again thank you

    Anna. Hope you are having good time in Togo. I chanced to watch some of your episodes in which you interviewed your dad and the one in the Epkui. I recognised him as one of my pals in Accra New Town in the early 70's. A little of intro of myself. My name is John Agbo (a.k.a in those days as Johnnievi). Your dad I were church mates at Kpehe Roman, during Rev. Fr. Lauck's tenure and we used to play together.
    I am currently residing in Los Angeles, California for the past 15 years and before then was abode in Germany between 1991 and 1993. In the video, I did recognised Antoine and Emelia whom I have met a couple of times that I visited Ghana in the Abelenpe area.
    Ask your dad if he can still remember me. My family house then was behind Ghana Commercial Bank in Accra New Town and adjacent to the then popular chop bar called "Madam G. F"). If he can recollect, I would like to reconnect with him. I am on schedule to leave the US at the end of April to visit Ghana.

    It is so amazing how they brought those skills with them to the Caribbean. We had the same thing in my country before tap water. One of the dangers was drowning . If you are too tall you could fall in.
    Some were build on high elevation which can be slippery when wet.

    This is country life that's all my grandma used well water. Instead of rolling a tire with a stick we played with marbles when I was a kid. Country livin is cool. Necessity is the mother of invention that's why they are so innovative!

    Anna, those normal Ghanaian ways are common in the Caribbean.
    Climbing very tall coconut trees to cut the bunches of nuts for sale and also, drinking at home, sharing with friends; the bags of juice (called sucker bags); sweeping with coconut branches (the stems are separated from the leaves and tied together to form brooms, usually to sweep the yards, though there is a spiritual side to them); using old tires as toys (not done today as children are now into technology), but in my time it was normal.
    We also used the rims and simply called them, "rollers".
    Life has changed immensely, many traditions have been cast away, but they are still very valuable and will continue to be.
    Think for a moment!
    What would be the position of man today, without electricity which most people take for granted?
    Africans and other indigenous peope everywhere would be better off than most of the world.
    I am country in my heart, I like the comforts of modern day up to a point, BUT, in the country, I am me.
    Nothing is wrong with Ghanaian or any other indigenous way of life.
    To each his own!
    If it were mine, I wouldn't trade it.

    Poor Anna had to be sweeping while the men sit and watch her - not fair!
    There’s just one thing that I couldn’t get use to: walking barefoot.
    You’re right about being creative and innovative, the Africans have it in spades. Can you imagine if Africa didn’t have to undergo colonialism and have the continent divided up by the Europeans where it would be today? Give it time and commitment, it will emerge from the ashes into a powerhouse that will be the envy of the world. We just have to believe in ourselves. By the way, just keep those vlogs coming!!

    Hi Anna, next time you go to Togo can you make a video showing the kids learning village skills. Maybe have the other village kids showing them how to do things. I think they will like it and it will be nice to see them experiencing village life too
    And thank you for reading all your comments. It's really appreciated 🥰

    I love your videos, they remind me so much of my childhood in Trinidad. My dear it’s called improvising 🙂. You make do with what you have. I see you’re having fun like a little child. I’m always amazed when I go home to experience the country living, city folks don’t know what they’re missing. I’ve experienced everything you’ve shown the world in my childhood. Keep up the good work. Love your family 💕Blessings 🙏🏾

    Greetings Queen Acheampong, I am very happy that you are reaching out to your family on your father's side. I see that you are indeed having an awesome time in Togo with your family and I am very supportive of that. That petroleum drink container isn't good for your health over time when used as such. Thanks for sharing Queen. I know that King Acheampong misses you so much or is he there with you?
