    Hi Guys,
    In preparing for my move to Ghana there are a number of items i bought and brought with with me to Ghana which am so grateful to have done. It made a massive difference with my budget and saved me a lot. I am sharing in this video non negotiable items I purchased for Ghana. I hope you find it helpful. xx

    You forgot white dresses. 9 out of 10 dinners or parties invites are always All White. At least my experience. You can also buy fabric to get it made in Ghana. Buy all your Costco vitamins, toothpaste, mouthwash, longlife milk (not fresh milk ofcourse), cereal, Bed linen, towels etc.. Eniema nkitinkiti saa buor edin wor Ghana . You can get everything in Ghana but sometimes its expensive

      Why would you choose to leave Germany for the unsanitary living. You also have such poorly constructed housing for the most part. Does the culture prefer this type living? You're smart, attractive and educated, why? I don't mean to be disrespectful but that's moving backwards culturally.

It shows some Americans buying used clothes from an open air market in Kisumu, Kenya: th-cam.com/video/AIhQ6QcMFak/w-d-xo.html. And then there are some markets, especially in Nairobi, that sell more trendy used clothes. See 11:25 in this video: th-cam.com/video/yDPgf2htazA/w-d-xo.html :)
