  • Ghanaians, living in Sweden feel socially left out within the Swedish society because the society do not open up to them.

    Having a different background is always a challenge to integrate in a new society.

    Some one commented that why do Ghanaians go to Swindon. To be honest with you. I love my country Ghana but Ghana is not a develop country, and people travel to Europe for a better life for us and our children. You can not compare Ghana to Europe. You know that.

    From my experience Swedes are very friendly, polite people and they have sense of humor. The only things is they’re shy and if you’re willing to initiate contact they’ll be open

    But why are Ghanaians even going to Sweden? what is it in Sweden that they cannot have in Ghana? Are they there because they saw Sweden in a postcard? Ghanaians do not think before they do anything. Their mentality is, anywhere is better than Ghana, so they can go back to Ghana to be seen as doing well even though they are not. What does getting a Swedish citizenship mean? that you are not a Ghanaian? or just to live of their welfare system? Most Ghanaians are lazy and always looking for handouts and free stuff. Why don't they stay in Ghana and be proud of it, how about that for a change?
    As for family members, I will advise all Ghanaians abroad not to buckle to the undue pressure by lazy family members who see them as a bank and a means of extortion. Once you go abroad they stop working hard for themselves and instead sit on their butts, scheming to collect money from you.

      Sometimes ppl should shut up when they don't know nothing about the what they are talking about. I am a Ghanaian/Swedish and I can boldly say that Sweden is one of the coolest place to be .education,health,and economically. I completed uni in Ghana and couldn't get a job but I came to Sweden and it is my right to have a job and I have a job that pays more than a minister in Ghana. There's no such thing as cash and carry system here in Sweden, if I'm sick and they even hv to airlift me, I don't have to worry about payment cos I'm a tax payer. I can educate myself and my children to and level without paying a dim cos I'm a tax payer.pls pls pls do your homework BEFORE u argue on time you hv no idea OF. Medaase

    We can not adopt to our self as ghanaians and black people , how do we want the Swedish to adapt to us hahaha africa we are funny, when we get levels in foreign land, we see each other like the way the white man see us, they know we don't like each other, why are we accepting them to adopt us when we don't like each other. Funny.

    Thanks to the author of the channel for this fascinating video! It is interesting to see how people live in other countries! It is very important to know foreign languages on such trips. I would like to recommend to all travelers a practical guide to learning foreign languages by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages". This book contains a lot
    of useful tips on how to learn a foreign language for tourists, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who needs a foreign language in life. There are a lot of good tips on how to solve problems with the language from beginner to advanced level of language learning. It turns out that the traveler only needs to know a few dialogues and you can easily travel around the world! You don't have to spend a lot of time to fully learn a foreign language, you just need to learn what you can use when you travel. I wish everyone exciting travels!

    Ghana is worse. If u have a husband and kids to be with, why should u worry about the Swedes who don't want to socialise with u?
