Thank you for watching.
*A huge thank you to all the incredible Ghanaian people in this video for being so open, welcoming and hospitable towards me.*
When are you going to go to Alabama and show the poor trailer parks, the inbreds in West Virginia, the mostly white poor drug addicts in Kensington Pennsylvania high on the streets in dirty clothes living rough. When are you going to show that?
If you’re still in Ghana let’s link up and show the people Kumasi 🙌🏿🙌🏿
@@lilrolexlogs6228 lol you really think he’s gonna show the positive of Kumasi? He’ll link up with you if you take him to the poorest place you can find to fuel content for his racist audience. He doesn’t want to do a video on the apartments, shops, ppl with jobs, normal lives. He wants you to take him to the lowest of the low to plaster it on the Internet and label it “This is Ghana” lmao
need to be very careful when u go dis kind of Country, many Virus
@@Andu_music I don't think he's racist far from it im a black man and I know racist come to the US you'll see racism at its best trust me
" We are nobody, but we are somebody" ... I felt that.
Beautiful words.
@@IndigoTraveller Totally, we have so much to learn from people around the world. Thanks for your awesome videos, bringing voices to these people! Legend!
Yeah I felt that too. He could probably work on his English skills a bit
@@a.b3203 Are you for real???
@@a.b3203 he’s not English , maybe you can learn his language
That guy in the green sweater was seriously so down to earth. Truly puts your life into perspective when you see someone like him being so positive even under the circumstances. I mean they don’t know much different. But just the fact these people are alive is enough for them to have a smile on their faces. Take notes people.
Yes love this comment man
My thoughts exactly. 🤘❤️🤘
I wish these TH-camrs would show the good sides of Africa. So sick of this poverty tourism. Spreads a misleading narrative. Many parts of Africa are developed
@@drdavinsky lol you're such a spaz bruh
Absolutely
As a foreigner lived here for 2 years,i can say ghania people are really enthusiastic and nice,and it is sad to see their tough life where they have to struggle,wish all ghanias healthy and happy at all times.
Did u experience scams in Ghana? Or corruption?
@@anthonygreenfield123 well corruption only occured among the goverment officials,it is normal in african countries if u are doing business here;as scam ,it has never happened to me,am not saying it doesnt exist ,i saw some news about it ,the most important to avoid it is urself being more aware of it.
@@duncanchang2879 come end do business here pls to employ more to make money or what do you think pls
@@jonesquartey3831 mumu..kneel down beg am becus na so Ghanaians dey behave towards foreigners

Thanks for this video. We as Ghanaians are much GRATEFUL🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
❤️
@@IndigoTravellerI'm Ghanaian and thought this was pretty cool. Was laughing the whole entire time
I love your videos on Africa, Nick. I am Nigerian, and I have visited Africa and the world more from your lenses and the perspective you bring is generally without bias and degradation. Keep bringing the world closer to everyone. It takes a ton of guts to do what you do. Bravo!
Thanks Yadi, much love to Nigeria, I miss it. Great people!
@@IndigoTraveller You are doing extraordinary work. It will be forever remembered.❤️
Oppose Central Bank's Digital Currency (CBDC) it's road to total control.
Cant say the same, when he went tocmy city São Paulo he literally showed the same homeless using drugs 5 or 6 times on the video just to create a drama
@@torrecillas999 he’s doing the same in African countries. He’s toxic
no matter how many times I've watched your videos I'm still shocked at just how hard a lot of people are living
Child poverty and financial hardship are huge throughout the west. I don't need to watch this stuff which is thousands of miles away, to be shocked when I can just look outside my front door 🙈
@@rusty5078If you use your eyes a bit more, you’ll be able to see a difference in poverty and hardship between countries and regions. It’s all relative.
people living like this in europe now thanks to the global scam over the past 3 years
@@rusty5078 this is an ignorant comment. yes people can get too distracted by issues across the world but compared to being in poverty in a big city in America (recieve welfare, SNAP, public housing) is sooooo much more than what a third world govt can provide you. Not to mention American infrastructure compared to Ghana is ridiculous. When he was in the slum there was like 2 paved roads
@@rusty5078 you are delusional if you don’t see the difference between African and looking out your front door. Ignorance and privilege at its finest 👌🏽
I don’t know why Ghanaians are ashamed that this guy is showing this part of the country, this is why they is much poverty and suffering there, the world need to see this and know what other people are going through in countries like this, Big ups to the creator for showing us this part of Ghana 🇬🇭
We are not ashamed
@@Rimmroseyou should be. You specifically. Germany for life
The problem is man there’s poverty in America an we live in the greatest country ever an we have homeless outside what does that tell you the problem is humans in particular men
@@yungbake2161 what are u saying what do u know😅😅
@@yungbake2161 u sound pained🤣
As an American watching your videos, it makes me rethink my problems. Waiting for food, getting cut off, a headache… all pretty insignificant compared to the problems some people deal with. Humbling videos
Everywhere on this planet where poverty is, this is the problem we are talking about environmental issues look at it in our eyes, all waist run out in the sea, please Mr government take a good look and help us poor people they will keep the environment in place
Yes !
Much needed viewing.

One love from Jamaica 👏🏽🇯🇲🇯🇲
Beautiful people indeed, love to Jamaica!
@@IndigoTraveller 👏🏽👏🏽
So true, bless up to everyone from Ghana
@@Troydel.88 biggest slums in Africa? Are you on hard drugs😂😂😂 just because you saw a lil portion of a slum in the country doesn’t mean it’s one of the biggest in Africa
Jamaicans need to stop being so hard on Jamaica, we're really not doing so bad. Even our ghettos are nothing compared to what you see in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
I have made soo many Ghanaian friend here where im at and they are some of the most genuine and kind people i have ever meet. I have made real friends for life. The type of friends that are there for you when you need them. God bless the people of Ghana
God bless u too
I’m amazed and i love people of ghana, they’re positive and friendly people despite of a hard life, and they are not asking for money instead asking for a job and opportunity to work, what a beautiful people of ghana, i hope one day ghana will bless and rise - from Philippines

Let’s hope he gets here in the summer, so he’s got time to get ready for winter.
Gay
seems like u only care about Men and not women. ur into men ? LOL GAY
yeah man.. let's bring these problems to canada.. you're a real genius. 99% of them can't even express themselves properly, their avg iq is abominable.
Aboza really spoke to me, I hope all the best for him. "We are One, We are all equal"
Beautiful.
I knew that guy personally when I was living in Teshie
Two of the greatest people I have ever known are the two Ghanian men who took care of my father for 7 years while he deteriorated from dementia. They are family to me; and whenever I meet someone from Ghana, I go out of my way to befriend them. My heart is with them. Thanks for what you're doing. It's redundant of me to keep telling you, yet every new exploration of yours requires it.
God bless you and we ghanaians love you more
Lucky they didn't scam your father
@@kabifest8897 obviously, because they didn't, your assessment needs a bit more examining. Why do you suppose they didn't? Perhaps that wasn't luck?
Even tho im ghanaian, all of this seems so foreign to me. Granted i was born and raised in USA 🇺🇸 but even when I would visit, i never saw this side of extreme poverty. It makes me feel privileged in a way and fortunate for my life and what I have.
Nick is the hero this world needs.
Hahaha too kind
@@IndigoTraveller Don't be modest. You are practically a saint. Saint Nick lol.
@UCqTsLGL2DZJyEpYKIxTkZog Get over yourself. Touch some grass man.
@@alaskansummertimeThis is an extremely one sided view of Africa. Look up Wode Maya, real videos of how most people in the cities in African countries live, apartments, ppl with jobs, houses, shopping malls, condos. This guy deliberately went to slums to make it look like all of Ghana looks like this. Again, look up Wode Maya he is a TH-camr that actually lives in Ghana and shows what it’s ACTUALLY like. This video is the equivalent of if I skipped past Beverly Hills, Manhattan and went to poor trailer parks in Kentucky and made a video saying “hey everyone this is what America looks like”
@@Andu_music Arguing with strangers on the internet is not a good use of your time on this Earth.
I watched Yes Theorys new video on Africa last week and it stood out to me that he asked what they needed (they said a well for clean water), but then never followed through with anything. Thats why I support you Indigo Traveller, every single place you visit you seem to leave a long-term positive impact. You don't just forget the people. Sean from Haiti has 365 patreons right now. The orphanage YOU built in Nigeria. Seriously Nick, when I can't see the good in this world any more, I just think about you or put one of your videos on.
I follow both creators for many years. YT and IT are different when it comes to content and story telling. Nick is a one person journalist and goes to places where many don’t go and talk to locals and share their stories. The Yes Theory team is inspiring to seek discomfort and I’m curious to see what other Africa content they will push out as I love Africa. Yes theory could use their platform to help the locals they come across in Africa and maybe they are in a different way like inspiring people to travel to these places… I think they are just seeking discomfort while story telling. Both channels are inspiring but Nick is using his platform to help the people while spreading awareness on what’s going on in the world. Love both channels.
We need we want we deserve! Give me give me get me! So a whole nation of supposedly a superior race can't dig a well? Can't clean up can't create jobs? Etc. Hmmm? Lazy?
He build no orphanage home in Nigeria
@ilovejewelyn no, yes theory are now rich travel bloggers that only interact with the common man when it can make them content. I wouldn't expect you to understand though. Looking at the titles of your videos I can tell you live a very privileged life as well. Just rich people drinking the kool-aid of other rich people. They don't seek discomfort any more, they seek $$$ and fun.
Check out Kurt Caz also!
The musician was the person who gave me the deepest impression in this video. Thank you for sharing your travels and for retelling people's stories in a pleasant and beautiful way. All love to you and these people, warm regards from Sweden.
Fascinating video once again Nick, The people in Ghana are so nice, I’ve met a few here in the UK and they a lovely people, they deserve some good fortune.
I learned so much about country's, where you normally don't get this much first hand information about and I'm so thankful. It's truly first class journalism you doing here!
Thank you, Max!
You learn alot about its slum not the country.
@@jyde50isn’t it part of the country? Why are you so ashamed?
@@mariusborgarbui3211 am not form ghana, but i clearly see what the guy is doing, he ignored western nations going though massive homeless epidemic to film the slums in africa.
@@jyde50there’s 1000s of TH-cam’s going to western nations…why can’t he be different and do what others are afraid to do.
Thanks for showing the world how politicians in Ghana are neglecting us.Majority are wallowing in povery.We are suffering in Ghana.Let the world know the truth.Poverty everywhere in Ghana.
Appreciate that, I wish the best for Ghana and its people.
Bunch of lies from racist
The guy that was already watching your videos was so sweet! I hope he lives out his dreams in Canada 🍁 🇨🇦
I love how humble you are and act like family with these people so they feel safe around you. Your other videos opened my heart up to Haiti and now it’s somewhere I am looking to get involved in and it all started from your videos. Thank you for sharing this with the world and now sharing Ghana with us
🇬🇭 love the energy from the Ghanaians.. I wish them all the best
From the poorest part of Ghanaians*
The guy who did the singing was a beautiful human and how he said we are all the same we all have the same blood was beautiful words
Genuinely one of the best channels on TH-cam - the new perspective of all the places you visit as fantastic. Can't wait for more content -
I was there in Accra Ghana many years ago as a youth missionary. It was amazing to meet the people & learn about their culture. I haven’t seen anything really about that part of the world since then & to see this now brought it all back for me. They’re such wonderful people there. So sad to see the way their economy is suffering. I wish them nothing but peace & happiness!
"we are nobody but we are somebody" from a person inside America who works day to day and has a roof over my head and food on my plate with hardly any struggle i side with these peoples mindsets and way of life, they struggle yet hold such a positive outlook on things
Man if everyone adopts the African spirit (despite of the hardships they endure), the world would be a better place ❤️ Much Respect ❤️
Hi Nick, from Guam, USA 🇺🇸
Hey Nick, huge fan of your work I think it's incredible how you're shedding light onto these beautiful people across our world, please never stop doing what you're doing. If you're ever in Sydney I'd love to buy you a beer & hear some stories.
I love all of your content! Always going out in the thick of it to get some of the most real life situations on film.
Much love, thank you for watching
You enjoy this neo kolonialism? A white guy making money off of black people without paying them? Think again!
I know Aboza and he's been making local music for nearly 20 years... Quite popular within the Gã community
We africans, we are nobody, but we are somebody and we say we have to love each other, one love!
This little gem of a statement, is why I watch you Nick!
Africa is the motherland leached dry by the rest of the world
I'm so happy I found this channel !!!! I get to see the world & realize how many people feel the way I do about things !!! We all have struggles and we all are human and need to love each other !!! Prayers & Blessings to Nick & to everyone in the world !!! :)
you're really a good guy. you visit people with no judgement and leave them feeling good about meeting you. its awesome and refreshing to see
I’m really speechless to these people, all i can say is wow 😮 ghana’s people are so friendly and very positive . . .
‘I pray for the best for everyone’ words of a hard working man, hope the best for you brother, love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Beautiful ❤️
Thank you much for letting us travel with you and show the world the way it truly is and knowing the lovely people you meet much blessings for you and the people that we meet during your amazing way of getting in touch with human kind !!!Peace from a crazy Puerto Rican living in Philadelphia PA!!!one love!!!
The work you put into bringing awareness to people is outstanding, thank you!
One of my favorite professors at university is from Ghana. He has the most infectious deep belly laugh. I know blanket statements are not good BUT all of the people from Ghana I have ever met are some of the happy go lucky people, capable of rolling with whatever happens and making the best of the situation. Great video Nick!
You have one of the best channels on TH-cam. You're awesome Nick. My eyes open a bit wider with every video ❤️
Appreciate the awareness you are bringing to the world. The effort you go to is second to none.👍
haven't got passed the intro yet and have to say the intros to this Ghana series and your Haitian series are both very well put together! Content has always been top tier but these new intros have really caught my eye and given it a real professional touch
I don’t understand his lyrics but I can feeling his soul in his music and inside his eyes when he is singing. Thanks for sharing all in your videos!
Got really obsessed with all these travel series. So interesting, so educational and many things in those episodes can get you so emotional. Many of us, big travelers at hearts ourselves too, we know, we'll never dare to step into many of those places around our globe. But you dared, thank you for opening those doors and showing us what it's like, that raw daily life for local people there. The travel mission you carry is just breathtaking. It's great you focus on the positive side no matter what. Stay safe!
Same here! I recommend bald and bankrupt as well. Also great!
So glad to have found your channel, I love your videos - I learn something every time and you're so inspiring! Appreciate all your adventures and the hard work you put into these. Always looking forward to your next video, Nick!
Thank you Micah!

What I love about my people is the positivity everywhere you go. That's what being Ghanaian looks like.
We know we don't have it all but we appreciate and hope for the best.
Does this channel show too much of the poorest parts of Ghana? How much of Ghana is developed and safe? I’ve seen videos of nice places with happy and comfortable people in Ghana.
@@ToadyWoodsyes it does. Go watch Wode Maya he shows the positive
@@ToadyWoods I think this channel has it's angle and it attracts it's audience. There are other channels you'll get what you want to see
@@ToadyWoods It show the Poorest Part of Ghana… i have being to Ghana 15 times… i have never seen a place this poor… he truly has his angles… he is looking for the human side of things… Struggling side to show the people in the West to be more appreciative of what little they have, at list you are not like does poor 💩 AFRICAN… and to make lots of Money 💰
The man talking about blood in everyone and everyone is the same was incredibly inspiring
LOL u can't be serious
@@tomtaylor5623 why not
And so original!!
@@tomtaylor5623 can you explain why it isn't?
I love the Uber driver lady who has been with you during this video. Such a well spoken, wise woman. Wish I could send her a hug
I appreciate your content,Nick!
I am Ghanaian but trust me,your videos give me a whole new perspective everytime.
Good work❤💯👏🏾
Haiti was probably the craziest series you had so far, man that countries is nuts
Great video, Nick. Everyone you interviewed was so kind and had great energy. It really shows that mindset is incredibly important. I hope to travel to Ghana one day.
You would surely love your experience here kat, would definetly be your guide and show you around someday. Peace and love
I hope so
Take care of yourself Nick. If not for you, who else is there that can be a voice for the so unfortunate. Amazing work. Keep it up.
Nick you are such a genuinely kind human being. This world absolutely needs more people like you, it is no wonder that these folks open up their homes and their hearts to you brother, you do amazing with interviews and give everyone the oppertunity to be heard... God bless you and the people struggling so badly. Much love to all and let's try to learn from Nick and BE KIND it is that simple to make this world a better place and it goes a very long way❤❤❤❤
Give? I hope he pays well. He"s not giving them anything if its not plenty money/ SAG wage. Cause molestering manipulators with money and resources are waiting on him to show them their next conquest. Trust me. That is the MO of the beast. All the beautiful people and places in Ghana, why dramatize the slums? Foh. Im nit with this one.
The mindset of people like Aboza are a big part of the reason why I’m moving to west Africa myself (the Gambia) one love, one people, worldwide ❤️💛💚
Plz go to russia we tirdd of the colonizers 😭
what amazing people! I would love to share with them they're very inspiring, I hope they can improve their living conditions soon... as always a great video thank you so much Nick 👍🏻
Fascinating, although this is the kind of video that get views because people literally just want to see Africa suffering. But will also be great to show the great side of Ghana.
I like your videos and I think you are doing a good job showing the struggles people go through everyday but try to also show the positives and the numerous opportunities that abounds in Africa as well.
Another great and honest travel experience video
Great video once again, Nick! It’s eye-opening to see the stark contrast between the lives of these wonderful people and that of government officials. This theme of corruption is common across all of Africa as those who have the ability to develop their homelands into very successful nations decide to not do so because of self-interest. I believe that one day, Ghana and Nigeria, especially, will be the pride of Africa once more.
Ethiopia is getting less corrupt
@@quinnard9750 Ethiopia is dangerous, killing everywhere!There's no peace
I don't think it is only government officials, there is a lot commerce as well. Tourism is also a major thing in areas and owning a property in the right place changes everything. I also think things are going to get better but they (most African countries) need to watch out for the debt traps from other countries including the US, UK, China and Russia. It is my fear that these African governments may take the short term gains and lose all the resources they have.
Once more have they ever??
What the hell are you talking about, like it's all bad. There are allot of good thing also what the government in Ghana have done and developments. It's a shame BP like you love sitting in this yte Fake saviors there behindsss, really telling and dis-gusting. Let him also go and film the other sides, that are more than the slums.
Love to all my Ghana brothers and sisters .. 🇲🇽
What wonderful people! I love the friendliness and resourcefulness of the people you spoke with. 👍🏼✌🏼
Wow, the introduction is so dopeeeeeeee The video is amazing 👏
I gotta say, I feel like West Africa are some of your best videos. Just really good chemistry
Appreciate that, great part of the world! ❤️
When I lived/visited Ghana, I remember seeing Teshie. I lived in Ashaiman for six months. Even though the living conditions weren't ideal, I remember how many people would still have massive TVs, stereo systems, laptops, and iPhones in these compound housing. Such a surreal experience for some people living in these conditions, but they still had all the most recent up-to-date gadgets. Very different from what people would've pieced from countries like Australia. In many ways, Id compares Ghana to how Americans think everyone in Australia has a pet kangaroo. There are many things about the country outside the assumptions of Africa having just poverty. Great video Nick
Amazing people
Very true bro...
American here. Literally no one thinks everyone in Australia has a pet kangaroo. We might mostly suck at geography, but we aren't morons...... :)
Do you watch Jim Nduruchi
Probably stolen too lol especially iPhone lol
I appreciate the people who visit Africa and make these videos. I enjoy watching and learning about my people. I was ignorant and didn't know they speak English in Ghana.
I went as a Norwegian student on an exchange year to Ghana in 2019. I loved it but I remember the huge inequality from rich to poor. In Oxford st (Main Street in Accra) a wealthy man put his Lamborghini in a display case in the middle of the street to show it off
I love the way you show a real perspective of major issues in the world.
Thank you for watching, Shawn!
Ghana slums & living are much better than some of our African countries neighbours !! Travel and see
Aboza the musician much love bro from Kenya ❤️, i love your way of understanding life and Definitely Good Music 👌🔥
Ghana is such a nice country, especially it's people. I never regret first time spending winter there, can't wait to get back, and advice everyone to have a proper trip. I have a couple friends from Teshie, told me the exact same thing regarding day/night safety. Generally true, but they made it clear that Teshie is no joke at night, which is why they often couldn't get a ride there when it was round midnight.
So pls come end establish business here ok l need fanacial support to start work because l have so many idea's end hand work but no support to power me yiu so pls any help to do it from your heart for me pls
One love! Come to Canada bro, we’d be happy to have ya! Thanks Nick for these videos and connecting people that would otherwise remain all but disconnected across the world. They are invaluable
Glad to see you are well Nick I'll be praying for your safety! 🙏
very tough to hear the situation about the violence towards women 😢god please protect them and make Africa safe for women!
Jambo Aboza You said it well! One love❤️ we ARE all the same inside, we all have the same blood. There should be no hate, especially just because of the color of their skin🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽. Peace and love my brother!!!
I passed through there in an office bus in 2021 ,i never knew we had smtin like that there .....in Accra incredible we need to help people become better so they can help thier family & friends..Nice one Nick
Great video as always. It always astonishes me how insanely good "African" genetics are for retaining or building muscle mass. Good luck to all the people in the videos for their future!
This channel and those like Kurt Caz show me and help me understand that PEOPLE are amazing. All people from all over are nice, welcoming, and loving to others. The bad people take the spotlight. But being a random stranger in another continent that shares no similarities in life with the other person means nothing.
You still get hospitality. And everyone is willing to share their things with you even if they only have very little.
The world is a beautiful place.
Kurt caz is better. He just went to Kenya and showed the clubs, the local bars, the markets, he rode a camel at the market it was so cool. This dude is skipping past all the apartments, houses, ppl with normal lives and painting Ghana is one big slum
I moved from US to Ghana lived 8 months in Accra..I absolutely love Africa and the beautiful people.
I'm ready to return and I can not wait to go back home🙏❤️
It's the most humble kind place on Earth...I love you 🙏❤️💛💚
We love you too
Primo coverage. Ty Nick.
Another amazing video friend. It’s crazy how everywhere you go in Africa, the people are absolutely different in their views and demeanor. These people in Ghana seem very friendly unlike some of your other encounters. Thank you for another great eye opening video!🍻 stay safe Nick!
Governments usually just care about themselves not the locals. Thank you again Nick for bringing awareness and your hard work.
At 21:30 when you said that it is one of the funnest places you visited, I was thinking that this is one of the best videos I've seen of yours. The Ghanaians seem like warm and welcoming people. I've met a few through surfing that compete in the ISA World Surfing Games, and they have always seemed like genuine people. They fit in well with Latin Americans at the surf competitions. This video actually made me want to travel to Africa, specifically Ghana, when I'd otherwise be apprehensive of traveling to African countries. Thanks for all the great work you do brining people together. It may sound corny but I get emotional watching your videos. I hope someday all of these people can live prosperous lives in their country and not be forced to migrate because of corrupt political leaders and whatever factors cause them hardship. Hands down the best travel vlogger, but I consider you a top-notch journalist. New Zealand should be knocking down your door to be an ambassador.
The People of Ghana are wonderful but this video was one of his worst imo .. he did not seem like he was at 70 percent
You should really go. I always felt save and people are fantastic. Plus surfing culture is on an increase there. You can look up "Surf Ghana".
Yesssssss I have never been so ecstatic. This is the most authentic & raw series I've EVER seen of my people & Ghana. The BEST part is the GA, not your everyday Twi dialect.
That is a wonderful insight into life of the real ghana people,tnx
This is my first time watching your video and I must confess I’m very intrigued. I just recently started vlogging and I’m doing the exact same thing but going farther into town. I’m Ghanaian and I was born and raised in the same slums you shot this documentary(Teshie). My first school is even really really close to where the fisher folk shack is. I’m lucky to have been part of the 1% that are able to excel and make it outta the slums. The secret? Education (School). It’s the only deciding factor. I mean there are other factors like being very good at sports or maybe a talent in music. But that’s super rare. Anyway, great piece of work. From a Film Maker’s perspective, this was very well executed and I need to commend how well planned this production was executed. Im pretty positive you had to grease a few palms to make these happen but the end result was absolutely worth it. I’m motivated. Next time you visit Ghana. I’d love to host and collaborate. Cheers Mate
Amazing humans. I absolutely love everyone's spirit given their situation.
The people are the solution. Not the government. The people you talk too do for themselves. I love it. I cannot say the same for a person in New York City... I am not from, "the" city.
Love your content mate. Some of the best on TH-cam.
Thank you, Midean!
You know this is an extremely one sided view of Africa right?Look up Wode Maya, real videos of how most people in the cities in African countries live, high rise apartments, ppl with jobs, houses, shopping malls, condos. This guy deliberately went to slums to make it look like all of Ghana looks like this. Again, look up Wode Maya he is a TH-camr that actually lives in Ghana and shows what it’s ACTUALLY like. This video is the equivalent of if I skipped past Beverly Hills, Manhattan and went to poor trailer parks in Kentucky and made a video saying “hey everyone this is what America looks like”
Amazing video of amazing people. This really helps my perspective of life
What incredibly beautiful people, I could never imagine people being so positive living such hard lives. Truly inspirational, I love Ghanaian people!!
Wow. This channel has become more than a Travel Volg it had become a documentary channel.
Appreciate you watching :)
Another great video. Thanks Nick for sharing your experience. It must be surreal sometimes to look back on these journeys. Ghana seems like a place people are quite positive despite their circumstances; good for someone like me to put my life in perspective.
Much Love
This is an extremely one sided view of Africa. Look up Wode Maya, real videos of how most people in the cities in African countries live, high rise apartments, ppl with jobs, houses, shopping malls, condos. This guy deliberately went to slums to make it look like all of Ghana looks like this. Again, look up Wode Maya he is a TH-camr that actually lives in Ghana and shows what it’s ACTUALLY like. This video is the equivalent of if I skipped past Beverly Hills, Manhattan and went to poor trailer parks in Kentucky and made a video saying “hey everyone this is what America looks like”
@@Andu_music no one thinks everyone there lives like this....
@@dallymoo7816 Many do. Many comments on his last video saying “see this is peak African civilization” and “this is what democrats want to bring to America/Europe”
@@dallymoo7816his channel has become a hub for white sprmcts (can’t say the actual word cause of TH-cam censoring) you can find them all in the comments of his videos
Exactly, this guy is a joke, he literally went to the slum and record trying to create sort of impression. Does he live in a hotel located in that slum?
I think the lady who showed you her house was saying that she feels safe with her neighbor around. Like he protects her a little or at least makes her feel safe.
She said she is safe because of the guy next door.
I love Ghana, thank you for visiting this country.
These people seem so friendly and it's really sad that in 2022 that there's people in the world without actual toilets. Something we take for granted.
You run a great channel mate. keep up the good work!
Thank you :)
