I am Jamaican African, and I will return to Ghana for good in the near future
Olive's World I love why African American said they will return to Africa but never did
Hi,
How are you. I was wondering if you had the opprotunity to make it back to Ghanna
Machella 123 hi
Nurse_ Olive I’m going in July and I want to stay
If possible contact me I am a Ghanaian willing to go back to settle home .WhatsApp me +4915217609039.
I think Ghana has the best music in the world. I like Sarkodie, Bisa Kdei, Guru and Castro. I heard that Castro left this world after trying to save a woman who feel off a jet ski. Ghana people are amazing with a history of royalty and power.
manwize-of-Kemet thanks for the love 🙏🏽
Very good tips. I was able to visit Ghana for two weeks last summer and it was most beautiful! The people were amazing and very friendly!
Ghana is the most peaceful .safe . cheerfuller .friendly country in Africa or may be in the world.
Ghana's crime is not brutal .like a gun robbery , but it is very sophisticated and intelligent and there are so many thieves . Be careful with your money , because Ghana (and all Africa) is a minefield for your money.Especially if you buy a plot . Do not forget that Ghanaian hackers are on the list 10 top in the world and they are very intelligent . Better if you have family in Ghana.
Hey
Thank you! Good Info!
I work for the U.S State Department/ Foreign Service Diplomat and I got assigned to Accra! Thanks for the Tips!
Keith Gokey you’re welcome to Ghana boss! I am in Accra too I hope you enjoy your stay here. Have fun here it’s safe
@keith I'm in Ghana. We can connect
SPOT on!!! I visited Ghana in 2012 and you are right!!!! can't wait to visit again!
awwww...we use the umbrella when it rains. the reason why u prolly didnt see much of it is because most of us dont listen to the weather forecast. but when we do, we carry one.
Lilipearl I hear you! :)
Thank you so much for your heads up,and sharing your experience with the world.Ive learned some twi,but learning more will always help.You have beautiful accent by the way!
Peace&Blessings~
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the great video! You are very openminded and friendly!
I visited Ghana in 1979 to visit a friend, I was there for 2 weeks, I'm African American. The place I stayed I noticed local kids playing soccer with a busted tennis ball. I felt bad so I bought a new soccer ball for the kids and a pump for the ball, I gave the ball to a girl and the pump to a boy, the girl with the ball took the pump from the boy and ran off with the ball and the pump with the rest of the local kinds in tow. Typical woman, I have a picture of them on my face book page.This is one of my most cherished memories. Meda wo ase.
Wooow,this great am foster Newman, a soldier in Ghana, nice
Okay your point?
Love this video! Thanks so much! First Ghana trip planned Spring 2016!
Did you go to Ghana?
Thank you for making this video. I plan on visiting and this helps.
Awesome!! Thanks for watching :)
Thank you for the advice I am original African but living in the Middle East and I enjoy it what you said
THANK YOU FOR SUCH INFORMATION OF GHANA, ON WHAT NOT TO DO AND WHAT TO EXPECT WHILE VISING. WILL BE VISITING THERE SOON. I HEARD IT IS A BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE.
I'm happy to have found your channel. Love to see abroad Ghanaians who are still very connected. I'm hoping to move back there beginning of next year
I'm African American I took the DNA test my results was Ghana Cameroon and Nigeria I would like to visit all three countries
Thats why Im looking at these videos. I took the DNA test too, and Im basically half Ghanaian and half Spaniard. I cant wait to book a trip!
That's so funny, I had 30% Cameroon and 20%ghana so I'm looking them up
Sylvester Graham where do you find this information..
Sylvester Graham you ll love Ghana. its a great country with nice people...
Sylvester Graham ...i.just arrived back from Ghana on.june 16, 2017
I spent two months. Nigeria is the second largest economy in Africa after south Africa, but will become the largest economy in Africa in the future, when corruption is eradicated.....with all this DNA link you have, why do you need a visa to enter these west African countries? make sure you do not go to Africa broke. buy shares in all the nigerian companies that pay.dividends listed on the Nigeria stock exchange. teach your people financial education before they travel to Africa. for financial planning literacy/education workshop, contact us at

Thank you MimiOnliine for telling me what I need to do to prepare me for my trip to Ghana! My Ghanaian Friend has promised me a vacation to Accra Ghana and this video helps Alot! Thanks for mentioning the Misqito Spray! Ghana is a very beautiful place from what I've seen on television and Im So Excited to see it up close in person! Your Information has truly help me out a Bunch! Thank you my Ghanaian Queen!
Beautiful video! Thank you for your insight and advice.
Thanks, this helped me understand loads more about the culture there. I am visiting Ghana in a few days for a two week trip. Cant wait :)
Just got back from our first two week long trip to Ghana and wanted to say thank you. This was the most accurate video on youtube I watched before going. I went there with very low expectations (i.e. don't get kidnapped or die from malaria...) and it turned out to be one of my best foreign travel experiences ever. Ghana people were so incredibly and genuinely nice! Like nowhere else in the world (Australia was close) have I encountered people so nice. We really had a great time with the exception of some extreme gastrointestinal issues... very glad my Dr. sent us with a "just in case" round of Cipro (strong antibiotic). I would go back... already kinda planning to!
and o! we're extremely hospitable. very welcoming and the most peaceful country in Africa, if not the World
Thank you for this video. My sister's on her way to Ghana and I'll be sure she listens to this. I always looked out for Africans that come to America also. When I had my salon an African sista came to get her hair done. She began talking about things her American husband was doing. I and other clients told her about American men. She became stronger.
Hello
+Leezah Smiles Thank you for your comment! I don't know if you've subscribed but on my channel, i feel like i have answered the majority of the questions/topics in the comments section through my other videos & replies, but however i could consider making a video where i answer some, if not all of the comments below orally and directly (depending on what you all think) :) Thanks for watching!
MimiOnliine Okay, thank you!! I will look at the other videos! I just found this channel! Thank you!
+MimiOnliine Can you talk about crime and foreigners? Renting an apartment by the week or month? I'm guessing most foreigners are in Ghana to work in finance or construction or banking, but I never see them in random videos on youtube? Where are they spending their free time? I hope you make some more videos, even interviewing foreigners/1st time visitors! Lastly, is it hard to find Crab meat served in restaurants and is it normally served hot or cold? What about bacon?
Thank you, sweety. I was very nervous until i saw your video. Many blessings to you
You might probably go there more than once when you visit. There is fun if only you have someone to show you around. There is more fun outside USA so when I travel I never get nervous and you shouldn't as well.
Great video, really helpful. She is very good in front of the camera, lovely smile and very friendly.
I'm moving to Ghana next year. You're advice is awesome.
Hey, I am not sure when I will be travelling to Ghana...But, your suggestions and instructions about these things made me clear about what to expect at a basic level when I will be in Ghana...Thank you so much for posting!! Keep going...
Thank you! I'm glad my videos have been helpful :)
very helpful now i know bringing someone over to the USA from Ghana now i know what to do and what not to do thank you....
so nice , Thk u for your tips. I am from Venezuela and I have a friend who come from Ghana and he always explain to me about Accra

Hi, thank you for posting this lovely video! I am a speech therapist in the US, and I am evaluating a little girl whose parents are from Ghana. I'm researching about the language and culture online to make sure that I understand whether she is having trouble learning language, or whether she has a disability. Also, I want to respect their culture, and I don't want to accidentally offend her parents, so this video is really helpful! Thank you so so much!!
Nice madam,

Thank you for this very useful video, Mimi! :) I am visiting Ghana next week from Europe, never been to Africa, and I am very excited to experience new things as you described! :) Thanks! Gabriella
I wish I had seen this video before the 1st time I went to Ghana! Took me 3 more times before I knew most of this, and I still learned a few things to correct on my next visit to Tema, and Accra, Ghana.
actually Tema is in Accra, they are not seperate states or lets say city

+katerinadede Thank you for watching!
Nerh...You can carry an umbrella around. The reason why you do not often see us with umbrella is that most of us make a mistake of not listening to the weather forcast. I even carry an umbrella when the hot weather comes
Lady Guitarist perfect reply🤣🤣 very true

Hello Mimi this is Dennis from the USA. I have been to Ghana three times in the past several years and I can definetly relate to everything you said in your wonderful video! By the way I love your Ghanaian accent! I hope its ok with you, I shared your video with my VisitGhana group on Yahoo groups. We have 762 members who love Ghana and I never know when someone in my group will be going to Ghana again or for the first time. I love what you say about hissing cause my Ghanaian wife does it when she calls a taxi or dropin lol. God Bless you and God bless Ghana!!!
No problem! God bless you too. Pls look forward to many new videos, i've got a whole lot planned for this channel! Thanks for the support!
I'm From Accra, Ghana & I LOVE IT.

+slybear525 Thank you for the lovely message! :) You can subscribe and watch my other videos too.
+MimiOnliine I have subscribed! and I am going to watch your other videos. I hope to visit Ghana one day in the near future. A few years back I studied some of the music. I have always felt a strong tie to the country. Have a wonderful day!
Amazing.. :)

I went to Ghana in October it was such a welcoming and humble country i wished i would have saw this video first though...lol...mosquitoes tore me up the horns were alot and i was im church 8 hrs Sunday i will return again for sure .
I love the hissing, I hiss for my daughter all the time. lol...this is a very good video and I love you hair.

+MimiOnliine ~LOOK AT IT AGAIN ~ DEUTERONOMY 28:68 = TRANS-ATLANTIC SLAVE TRADE !
YOU ARE YSRAYL !
Just curious but I have a question?
+TH-cam Moderator #297 what exactly is a black kkk. Have the black Hebrew Israelites ever lynched a white man. There's no such thing as reverse racism
Blaming all your problems on another race won't get you any further ahead.
tell that to the jews
Not first time going to Ghana but still helpful
Thanks a million Mimi, Im planning to go to Ghana....
Tell us how it is in the culture of Ghana this is very helpful, the do's and don'ts
Hey Honey! Thanks for the tips!
Aw thanks, and am glad the video helped somehow! ..More videos coming in the future :)
am a Ghanaian and am now in Switzerland. my issue is about umbrella we do use it in Ghana if its raining or is too sunny. so point of correction ...... thanks
Great video, I'm looking forward to be volunteering as soon as I turn 18 next year for about 10 weeks and I always wanted to go to Africa anyway, I'm still choosing though between Malawi, Zimbabwe and Ghana:)
That's great try visit Ghana ok,am foster Newman a soldier here,tnx u van contact me is u want to be friends
Thank you for your awesome info. The Left hand thing may be an issue for me because im very left handed.lol
Nice vid Mimi medaase paaaa sweetie... May God bless you my dear..
Good video,i like your personality
About the shoes...it really depends on who's home your are going to..
And the umbrella situation, BRING it otherwise you will get wet!! People DO use umbrellas when its raining because they dont wanna get wet. So unless you want to get wet...... bring ur umbrellas along.
HEY GUYS ,as suggest by a viewer, i may make a PART 2 for this video answering some of your questions orally, so you can drop me any questions you may have in the section or on my FB page (as long as it's educative) and you're subscribed , though i will also suggest to watch my other videos which could answer some of your questions already! Thanks!
i think u are wrong about the umbrella thing.
