Like most African capitals,Accra is overpriced. With $30000.00 excluding price of the land. I built a Trasacco type mansions farm house in the Kwahu mountains. . On a 2 acres land. I called it my sustainable farm house. This will have costed me $$$$$$$ in the city. The cooll morning and evening breeze is priceless plus I grow most of my food..
@Steve : Amazing... Agree it is Accra that's expensive. I have also bought nearly 2 acres around Aburi, in the Eastern Region and plan to develop it in the near future. The aim is to be as Eco friendly, self sustainable and off grid as possible. That can't be achieved easily in Accra.... Ghana is more than Accra.
God bless you foe being so truthful and Helpful with this post. I have always appreciate you for living a life in Ghan that anyone one can follow and succeed. The video was very informative and full of wisdom. Shalom
Thank you for your honesty about moving to and living in Ghana. Moving places is hard. Moving to another country is harder. Moving to Africa... God be with you! LOL I have to disagree with you about 'testing the waters'. I think you should at least travel and holiday in said country before you decide to move there. All in all, great vid.
Jasmine, I have always said you are one of the smartest returnees I know. It is important that people research, plan and are intentional about their return, just as you did, to make it a success. Love the fact that you also adapt to your environment and realise you have to learn to live as much as possible as local folks in order to make it. Love you for being a realist and pragmatic in what you do. 😘😘😘
I just love ur authenticity, so simple yet so posh🥰. I don't want Ghana to be like the west and it will never be like the west. Ghana will develop the Ghanaian way and I love that you see the beauty in that and not judging it🙏💞
I just spoke to someone about accesibility. A quick supermarket / store run in the west may take minutes because good roads/little traffic. Same would take an hour in Gh
Love your perspective and advice, although I'm not from Ghana, but I'm from the Caribbean, and I'm preparing myself to move back home after growing-up in the USA. My philosophy about moving is that I never look back because if I was living and surviving out there, so I can do the same, I've moved from one part of the states to the next, and I had a job prior to moving to survive so why would I move to another country without knowing where my income is coming from without having plan A, B and C without thinking about spending my savings when I'm not of retire age. Some people use where they're coming from as a crotch to left them up at the first drop, and some also think they can change other countries culture just to suit theirs.
I’d add to the list of recommendations that you should search for a support system! Seek a community of likeminded individuals or join an organization to help you with networking, learning the culture, and making the most out of your new home. ☺️😇
Very concise and well thought out summary of how to move to Ghana! I think that the people who succeed most in moving back to Africa are Africans .When I go home to Nigeria I eat only Nigerians food .I usually take some foods back with me but once that is finished I do not go looking for American foods in the Super markets. Also people are deceived by the exchange rate of dollar and pound into thinking that life is cheap in African countries ,it is not .The basic things that every one including the poorest have access to in the West are luxuries in Africa i.e. electricity , running water , toilets, indoor plumbing ,basic health care and are expensive to access !Also if did not run a business in the West where there are so many resources available , how on earth do people expect they will move to Africa and overnight set up a successful business that will sustain them in one of the most difficult places to run a business!
Not even when they come and set up a business. There's someone who came in with the family, stayed for about a year, wanted to enroll the kids in the best Ghanaian schools, wanted to rent the choicest of places and all, whilst not running any business at all. When the small money they came down with run out, this person was out there ranting all over the place🤓. I mean, where in the world can you live and afford the best of things without a source of income? 🤷🏽♂️.
That was very blunt and insightful. Hopefully people understood that that was informational and not a deterrent. You are a fountain of reality. Keep it coming.
Excellent advice Jas!! I do love the practical aspects of everything you touched on. I have sent the video to couple of my family members and friends! Keep up the amazing work you do! Have a great day!🌻
Remarkable woman you are Lady Jasmine. Your highly informative videos and quality content always excites my attention, and of course you have my vote. Thank you. 😎👍👍😎
Great Advise I listen to your videos religiously. First time commenting. You said something that didn't quite sit well with me personally regarding not wanting spending $500 on a retreat in Ghana. How else is Ghana going to grow economically. Keep making very good content.
This video should be made compulsory to watch for every obroni who wants to come and live in Ghana, I am sure it would save a lot of disappointment and heartache. Thanks for saying things as they are, you're a star!
I’ve been binge watching your videos the past few days. They are very informative and are very much helping me to prepare for my move to Ghana from the US within the next 2 years
I couldn't agree with you more wow such a great advice and a helpful one. Thanks a lot for this genuine information and very insightful Jes, a huge thumbs up👍🏼😊
This is an amazing video thank you for being so transparent for real it is not easy moving but know your reason behind it thank you again and good job in everything u do ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your helpful and sobering insights, Jasmine. You have really helped remove many people’s rose-colored glasses and given us some great points to think about. We appreciate you.
You're absolutely correct Jasmine, thanks for sharing those important information. I will still keep resident in the USA if I decide to move abroad. Peace and Love...
Oheema Jasmine. You are so so genuine, straight up you are the friend anyone would want to have. So on point, again, in this video. 2 things in my favour, Jamaica and Ghana have historical cultural connections, that are still present and practiced in Jamaica today. My future wife is Ghanaian. Am I excited about coming to live in Ghana, yes, are there going to be challenges, yes, do I have skill sets to utilise and compliment my wife's skill sets, yes. Will I be looking back at Jamaica, of course, we need more surgical links with Ghana, Employment, Agriculture, Education and Trade plus Investment on a personal level. So thank you, the video made me think objectively and tick the boxes in the affirmative.
Alot of people talk about the supposedly historical connections between Jamaica and Ghana, but can you show me the actual records that prove that alot of Ghanaians came to Jamaica? Are you aware of the black people that were already in Jamaica( the indigenous people the Arawaks) and the black Europeans( Black Irish) that came there in the colonial period?
@@trueamerican769 Thank you for highlighting how rich our Jamaican cultural history is, but lets not try to negate our Akan - Jamaican heritage. This being a lifestyle channel, will just state a few common everyday cultural standouts that are irrefutable, Day names Quashie for Kwashie, Jonkanoo dancers characters like Pitchy Patchie, Koromantee language of the Maroons, Ananse / Anansi stories passed down through storytellers like Louise Bennett, Amina Blackwood Meeks. There are many acedemic writings on this topic where you can research.
If some Africans came to Jamaica, it was only a few. The Majority of Jamaicans aren't Ghanaian. That's the false narrative that we were given. Jamaicans and Ghanaians don't even look alike. The majority of Jamaicans are descendants of the Arawaks with some admixture of Black Irish.
Thank you Jasmine,thank you so much. This has motivated me because am trying to come back to Ghana and set up my businesses but I keep getting negative talks not to come and discouragements. This video has really motivated me. Thanks so much. I would like to send you some items of my business products when I fully get it started and also invite you to my beauty saloon for a full hair treatment and facials when am all set. How do I contact you on what’s up?
Yeah, they want you fully vaccinated only during the holidays. After the holidays you need a PCR test a day before traveling to Ghana, and you have to pay for one when you get there.

Is Ghana still requiring the Covid vaccine??
Yes xx
Yes I just got back two days ago. They need you fully vaccinated.

When next are you going to be in Ghana jasmine.
I am in Ghana lol
That was quick, I mean your return back to Ghana from Australia. I thought you would be in Australia for a while. Can I email you.
Would you ever move to the west?
Good video….is it realistic for 59 year old woman to move there alone seems like mostly young people?
Definitely is ❤️❤️
