As you guys know its my first time visiting my first African country outside of Ghana. Come spend a full day in Togo with me. We are going to explore the markets, some of the beautiful homes they have here and their absolutely stunning beaches.
When you travel across West Africa and take time to explore the cities, you begin to really appreciate how great Africa is. The country Togo has been underrated for too long. In this video, I want to show you the capital city Lome like never seen before.
Togo with its capital city Lome is a very important country in West Africa, both in terms of its economic significance and presence as West Africa's first deep seaport.
Lomé has a thriving market scene, with several large markets selling everything from fresh produce to second hand clothes, to jewellery to traditional handicrafts.
One of the highlights of Togo is its beautiful beaches, which are often uncrowded and perfect for a relaxing day in the sun. It's important to access their beaches through the resorts as its safer and more beautiful. There are also several museums and cultural centres that showcase the art, music, and traditions of Togo.
Togo is a francophone country, however, there are also many schools and programs that provide high-quality English language education, and many Togolese people are able to speak English fluently.
As the newest member of the Uk commonwealth, English language education in Togo is provided through both public and private schools, and there are also a number of language institutes and centers that offer English language classes to adults and professionals. In some areas, there are also community-based English language programs that provide language instruction to people who may not have access to formal schooling.
Lome is generally safe, although like any urban area, it is important to exercise caution and be aware of your surroundings.
The cost of living in Lome is very affordable compared to many other African cities, Ghana included. Cost of living can vary depending on factors such as location, type of housing, and lifestyle. Transportation costs are also relatively affordable, with options like shared taxis and buses available to help keep costs down.
The capital city is home to many of the country's government institutions, including the National Assembly and the Supreme Court, as well as a number of international organizations and embassies. Lome is also an important cultural center, with a vibrant arts scene and a rich history that is reflected in its architecture and museums.

My name is Jasmine and I have relocated from Sydney Australia to Ghana in west Africa as of the year 2020.
My parents are of Ghanaian descent and so am I although I was born in Australia. Here on my channel, my goal is to give you a real glimpse into what it’s like to live in Ghana, from the Ghanaian food, to the Ghanaian culture, to the Ghanaian lifestyle and everything in between. My goal is to satisfy your curiosity about Ghana and help inspire to explore Ghana.
My prayer is that these videos do just that for several African’s in the diaspora.
Follow your bliss because life is short, follow your bliss because human life has no intrinsic value, follow your bliss because everything happens for the greater good and follow your bliss because it has all happened before.
In Togo you get to recognize a taxi cab by its license plate.. Taxis got yellow plates with red writings on em. And personal use cars get a white plate with blue writings
WOW 😮
Togo 🇹🇬 is a very beautiful country with the cleanest beaches
Thank you for the video Ama
Togo has a long way to go #AfricaRising
Travel to ivory coast after Togo also a neighbor to Ghana, very developed especially the economic capital Abidjan also called Paris of west Africa will shock u beauty & infrastructure
Will definitely go there sometime soon xx
@@JasmineAmaa if you're going to Ivory Coast brush up on your French my immigration officer spoke no English thankfully i went there to practice my French so i managed ok.. Giving u a heads up
@@dannydct1 she can link up with a TH-camr from Ivory Coast
Thank you for showing us Togo!!! My husbands Patriclan lineage traces back to Togo
Aw love
Caisse Togo 🇹🇬 looks like Labone
Beautiful country!
Jasmine, please dress like the locals to get a good deal on items when visiting any market in Africa, esp. outside of Ghana (my survival secret when visiting the motherland). Thanks for the video.
Togo is a beautiful country.❤ It just needs new leadership and governance.
Togo has joined the commonwealth. If I were Togo, I'd switch from french to speaking english, and band with Ghana to enjoy perks from tourism, entertainment etc
@@markntiri8251no way. That is huge. Because i Love Togo but i dont speak french. So i have to learn Ewe only.
Togo is such a nice place. I have never been, so thanks for showing us
When i visited a nice area in ghana i noticed people had lower walls but they also had electric fencing or barbwire. Most Togolese homes expensive or not do a high wall. Our home we are building has a high wall.
oh wow! we moved from the states to Togo, we live in the plateau region. wish we had known you were here!
Tell me about the moving, I am a dutch want too
Oh Jasmine you are sooooo right about Markola market! It's such a big market and very overwhelming and being "obroni" I almost feel like I'm being run down whenever I go😂😂😂. I was in Lome just for a few hours, waiting at the airport to go to Ghana and you're right about the language barrier...if you don't speak French or Ewe...you better figure it out fast...lol! I almost got on the wrong plane😂 Luckily there were several ppl who spoke English going to Ghana, so I attached myself to them and became an honorary family member 😂😂😂. Thank you for another great video as always! Their beaches are lovely....
🤣🤣 togo markets are much much more chill x
The nice area look very clean! Nice.
It sure does xx
Lome and Accra are added in my agenda. Thanks to Christelle and Jasmine
🤗❤️
Welcome to my Country dear🇹🇬🇹🇬❤️
❤️
Seem like it was a very nice experience. And being honest about the ritzy area was just keeping it real!
The resort looked sooo refreshing wish I was there and at the market… I’d buy from each lady. 🙂
Thanks for the tour… I think I could love TOGO 🇹🇬
❤️❤️
@@JasmineAmaa In the high-end area, did you say the homes are $1M US dollars?
Great video 👏🏿
@@nutube06 great question… I want to be sure to know as well
@@nutube06 I think she said 1MCefa not dollars
Thanks for sharing Jasmine good job
Bravo gorgeous Jasmine for such awesome amazing Lomé , Togo vlogs. Keep 'em coming Jas!
Lovely video thanks for sharing Jasmine. Africa is a beautiful continent. I’m from Asia and will have to explore there at some point.
There is something wrong when the people of Togo cannot live in nice homes like foreigners It smells of imperialism! The Togolese are wonderful people who have.a leech from Europe upon their back keeping them poor. Great content.
This is not true,majority of them are togolese.
Better keep quiet if you don't know
I lied because u haven’t been to Togo. Most houses are own by educated Togolese
Hi Jasmine love the video , Togo looks lovely.
Thanks Kwame xx
The Togolese in Ghana are now seeing Ghana as their country but when they hear rapid development of poor Togolese they fill like visiting home. I am a Togolese born in Ghana but rélocated due education and residing now in Nigeria
This is beautiful
Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much my sister 🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬
I love your work. I will surely visit Togo this summer 🇩🇪🇬🇭🇹🇬
Aw happy to hear xx
Love this video idea❤❤
❤️❤️
Beautiful place, and it's nice to see Tar Road❤
Sis is brave to sit on that bike 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂nice vlog as usual and happy Sunday sweetheart ❤
🤣🤣🤣 yeso ❤️❤️
Wow my sis enjoy
❤️
Nice video! If you get a chance , go to Marcelo Beach. They built natural pools, so bring a swimsuit
Beautiful Queen
💕
New to your channel.Thank you for sharing this journey. ❤
❤️
I love your videos❤❤
Thank u ❤️
Ghana's GDP is way higher than Togo but I definitely understand your sentiment about the socio-economic disparity. Unfortunately, you see that in many countries. In my homeland, Haiti, it's very obvious. The countries in Latin America that I visited like Brazil, it's quite obvious as well. When you have a caring mindset and heart, things like that upset you.
What I always try to do in every trip (I have a feeling you do as well) is to cherish the beautiful moments found even in the most sad/chaotic environments and to focus on lessons/experiences learned from kind and honest people along the way. I hope that we will get to see you travel to other African cities in the future. Thank you for being real and showing it!
I also wanted to point out in most markets in Haiti, you change to try on clothes in the open view for anyone to see unless people hide you behind a curtain or makeshift human shield😂
It’s not a competition, we’re all developing countries anyway
@@cerises7820 I didn't say it in a way to downgrade Togo and reading it again, it could appear like that. I only said that because Jasmine was comparing the infrastructures of Ghana to Togo and obviously, Ghana's economy and population is higher than Togo. I didn't mean to offend at all and yes, all those countries are developing. Africa will prosper more and more, I believe it.
Very nice 👌
Nice one
Ama u are a Togolese born in Ghana. So u coming to Togo is a nice place. Welcome home
Your speech is very nice
Common we're waiting
❤❤
0:32 Togo is great. I have to visit it. Great video. Well deserved Sub and Layman
❤❤Togo
You just drove by my house in Caisse. Cool.
Nice video
Stay safe Jasmine.
Thank u xx
Twoo sisters?? I love your job. I like
I paid so much money in renting cars because I was so afraid to ride on a bike, I will try next time. Beautiful beach..
My Ama and food......😄😄😄😄😄
🤣🤣
He crazy just walking with you back off bro let them have their space 🤣🤣🤣🤣hit the thumbs up 👍 all that guns in security is a sign it can it dangerous around there real talk oh shout from Philly.
This guy dey toast Jasmine 😅
🤣🤣🤣
Suburbs can never be complete without cleanliness, trees and lawns.
Caisse is looking like an posh Aussie suburb.
The seller (with the cap and striped shirt) sounds like a Nigerian.
The parts of Togo featured look very nice.
It appears they're managing their situation.
Yeah these places were lovely x
Some of you just be saying anything 😏. You should travel more and get out of comfort zone. You'll be amazed at the things you'll learn. Every country is beautiful in it's own way.
Ma soeur. Tu as tt dis. J'ai pas du tt aimé la manière dont elle a parlé de notre pays surtt qu'elle n'a vu qu'une partie de Lomé et même pas d'autres régions. En plus la guide est camerounaise. Même si elle vit au Togo, je ne pense pas que c'était une bonne idée mais bon. No Wahala. 😂😂
@@Africantoothfairy hmmmm je t'assure qu'elle m'a mis dans un état pas possible. Dès son arrivée au Togo elle avait déjà cette mine de je ne sais même pas. Genre tu quittes ton pays pour la première fois mais y'avait rien d'excitation sur son visage. Pour moi elle est juste venue pour faire des comparaisons minables et repartir pour juger que son pays est meilleur. Vraiment 😒😒. Je voulais la dire un mot en commentaire mais je me suis ressaisie. C'est pas normal. Elle se croit au top. Comment tu peux vouloir avoir quelqu'un comme guide qui aussi est tourist comme toi à vrai dire lol... les deux se cherchent et ne savent où aller. En tout cas elle doit revoir son comportement. Elle n'a qu'à faire un tour sur les autres TH-cam que les gens ont fait sur le Togo pour voir. En tout cas c'est ça le film 😆 🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬
@@emlachictogolaiz C'est pourquoi je préfère les Nigerians aux Ghanéens. Les Ghanéens là ils ne sont pas quelque chose mais c'est eux qui se comporte comme ils sont meilleurs.
@@ameleakpaglo3100 Vraiment elle est juste venu au Togo pour comparer et non pas apprécier.
It’s like I from London America 🇺🇸
NICE VLOG.Your videos DESERVE much more VIEWS.Keep them coming.Well done.
Thanks so much xx
@@JasmineAmaa Hey Jasmine,You looking Goodie Good.Keep the videos coming.
First
Hi Richy 🥰
@@JasmineAmaa Hey Jasmine!!! Keep up the great work.
❤
Their roads beaches and currency are far better than ours....
Far better? LoL. Currency, yes because it's managed by France. Cleanliness too yes. But our pokuase alone would dwarf all Togo roads. Our beaches are nice. Only need to be cleaner
@@markntiri8251 who cares. Togo is nice. Ghana is nice. No need to say anything. Both countries are trying to do their best.
Market value matters in currency. Your currency can be higher and useless to its citizens. Which makes it valueless.
It's not true
@@markntiri8251 TOGO have the best beach i know in west africa
That is where my ancestors is from Togo
Merci
Jasmine, that Igbo trader in Asigame market wanted to marry you by force. His lines were hilarious.😂😂
He didn’t wanna give up xx
Lol!!
Christine's daughter is super cute
❤️❤️❤️ 🇬🇭 🇬🇭 🇬🇭
❤️❤️
Interesting to see Naija bros hussling businesses in Togo.
Some of the hardest working people you’ll ever meet
True
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
💕
Oh my God those sellers at the market don't give up trying to sell you items
💚🙏
❤️❤️
Hey Queen Jasmine ❤
Helloo xx
Naw! I love to shop IN PEACE! 😍
I'll be done got into a fight just because the sellers won't take 'NO' for an answer! 😤
But, THA PEACE AND SERENITY OF THOSE GATED NEIGHBORHOODS, LOVE IT! ❤
The beaches are beautiful, but empty, working day perhaps. Sad about Caisse, so secure you cannot see the homes behind the wall. I noticed the Taxi driver opened the door for you to exit the Taxi ... real gentleman !! Did not see any security around the market or beach .. not even where all those mottos were. Baby girl did well on the motto you seemed comfortable. Nice vid medasse Jas.
I couldn’t film everywhere cos of the security . 💕
@@JasmineAmaa Strange Jas its understandable if Togonian citizens do not want to be filmed but if its a police or military intervention then that is not a good look, in my opinion, unless there are reasons why ... But like what though?
@@kencampbell9230 Togolese*
@@cerises7820 Thank you
@@kencampbell9230 no problem 😉
Around 19:03 what is the stuff hanging on the wall behind you? Are they wigs?
Taxis are easily recognisable. They have a yellowish orange top and the number plate is also orange. You may also see the taxi sign on top
It is definitely not by car model.
The caisse is where the politicians , business people and the upper class reside. You are right. the security is just too much. Have you tried some of the supermarkets. They have armed security there. It is weird. Also the taxis have yellow plates. Personal cars have white plates.
To be honest I think you came to Togo for work and your host is cool. Get an outgoing guy next time. You will have fun! Thanks again.
Definitely to explore and film while exploring xx
Caisse isn't where politicians reside most government personal are hosted at cité oua not caisse
The best thing in togo, in this video is jasmine
🤗
We don't need ghanaian to show Togo to the world.this video is nonsens.I don't know what things you'll not find in TOGO like Ghana.She show you few places and you think this is all about Togo nonsens.I don't like this mindset about Ghanaian youtubers.We have tall houses in TOGO also likes Ghana.
I can't hate on the guy trying to shoot his shot at you. LOL 😆🤣
Is it just me or are there a lot motorbikes in Togo? 🤔
Tons of motorcycles.. its the most common way of transportation
You can recognize Taxis by the yellow plates.
And the Private cars or personals use cars by White plates.
Togo looked very dry
Oh AFRICA
This is what happens when one man allocate all power to himself and family
Togo what? Y'all just be commenting anyhow... smh...
you look so pretty, I LOVE YOU
Please tell me where on earth you won’t find Nigerians ah 😂
The hair extension man and the guy patronizing you are both Nigerians
And what are the odds that that kinky you got, the same color is what I’ve on 😂😂
So lovely 🥰
They are everywhere lol. Love that color xx
Nigerians should have been chilling in their country looking at the vast oil resources of that country. It’s so sad that Nigerians are now hustlers everywhere. Nigerians deserve better
@@frankbekoe3109 shut up
The best way to different taxi is by plate number
Let’s go to my shop I will dash u one of the shirt 😅😅
Hey Jas so who is Crystal, you said your trip in the first video but she is present? Who is she your tour guide, friend or relative? Sorry I like context when watching videos and not sure if others know of her since I am semi new to your channel. One love great vid again.
Christelle lives in Togo and was my tiur guide during my stay x
Your security is in your own hands.I can understand why the fence walls are like maximum security prison.There are high jumpers out there. They would be done with you by time police gets to you.
Not so,am a Togolese and as southerner, that how we built our houses with high walls because for us it's like belly and outsider shouldn't know what is happening inside and that's the reason why the security is always tith in those areas so outsiders can't come and film anyhow and do everything they like,yes privacy is very key to the Togolese.
The guns in the USA is worse. Every body is carrying guns these days in Atlanta Georgia and Texas and elsewhere. It is legal. They don’t just carry mace or pepper spray here.
you gotta start leaving the glasses home
Where can I find the meaning of you say about following your bliss in a different language?
Its in my video description box x
The resort looks nice. You guys must have had a day pass? Or did you guys spend the night?
We paid the day pass which was 2000cfa xx
😅😅😅😅
That guy
🤣
My country is blessed 🇹🇬 but i b naija breed
Great video Jasmine!! Maybe they need to have those soldier guys at the Malls here in America. There are literally mass shootings like everyday. The violence is getting hectic. It is 10 times worse then when I was a teenager in the 90s. It might seem a bit scary but I think sometimes safety is necessary for those soldier guys to carry guns at the gate. Maybe if that was done in the states there would be less casualties. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened here one day. Because I don't think the government is ever going to ban assault rifles. Otherwise they would have done it by now and there is too much money involved. It's a shame.I have no doubt that if it wasn't for the money they would have stricter gun laws. And if I'm wrong why don't they change it?. I really don't understand it. So many elementary school kids have died. As well as high school, college, elderly, and even random shootings at hospitals. Anyway sorry for my rant Jasmine smh. Again great video!!! Keep them coming.
No we don’t. Too many crazy police attacking people of African descent
Every body got a gun an is carrying these days in the USA.
It is not as bad as you say but it is still bad. Police brutality is the worst
@@DarekBirton yeah police brutality is bad. Do you live in America?. Because even Americans are saying it's bad. The mass shootings might not be every single day. But it's a few times a month or more. Trust me I been living here for 32 years. And in the last 15 or more years it has gotten worse. The Devil is on the attack. All this is in the bible, in Revelation and through out the Bible.
👍👍👍👍👍🫶👌✌️🇹🇬🇹🇬 salut salut
Lord M.A was here
Amma how r u God bless u.
Jasmine can you tell me where the hair store is? My friend wants to go and buy some hair
Its somewhere in Assigame, just ask the locals. I can’t really direct
Thanks for sharing, Togo. Do you speak French? If not, how did you communicate with them?
My tour guide did all the communication xx
Dont u feel like u far away from ghana , but its right there , just because their lifestyles is soo different, makes u feel far off
How much did it cost you to go to Togo from Ghana 🇬🇭?. Did you get a Visa or did pay at the Togo border
I think it is really refreshing to be honest. However, when it is someone's else country and they have to live in it and struggle daily, some level of maturity is needed otherwise your complaints can come off as "spoilt rich girl" who cannot adapt to tough situations. That being said your host was very gracious and handled your complains about Togo well.
Sweet you keep saying Togo, exactly what city are you in, I know lome’ is the capital city but you’ve not made mention, are you not in lome’?
Lome xx
