Nice one Vanessa. Keep the vid coming.Having a house in Ghana helps with expenses. My son went to school in Ghana until high school which he went to in the State. My daughter went until 5th grade she is in her senior year now and is going to college here. I am moving back to Ghana next year for good. Retire from my job of 20 years👍🏾😊Just love it in Ghana.
You and your family should absolutely stay in Ghana. You have the best vlog on TH-cam for GHANA. You bring your subscribers the best diversity of life in GHANA. Good luck in your decision and pray to GOD for wisdom in making your decision. Thank you for what you brought us.
It’s a shame that many Ghanaians can’t see anything good in Ghana and are DESPERATE to leave. It’s refreshing to see someone who sees the benefits and opportunities in Ghana.
The grass is always greener. I'm Jamerican and I can't wait to retire and move to Jamaica while many Jamaicans are desperate to leave Jamaica and move to the States. 😕
It depends. Life in many 3rd world countries can be overwhelming and people work a lot hard to never see any result. Vanessa's videos are cool but many of the things she mentions are mostly for "rich" people (rich for 3rd world standards) of western countries. For a guy living in a poorer neighborhood in Accra (and many other places around the world) sending their mothers 200USD a month to "help" is a big dream.
Its hard to tap into that unless you come from a privileged background. There are opportunities HOWEVER only if you know someone. For the avg ghanaian thats not possible.
Truth - but Global Warming is here to stay - avoid coastal building - you will be hammered by increasingly extreme tempests. Go inland, fight poverty, & only employ local tradespeople, except for maybe an ethical builder who is active in several regions, and is committed to ecological housing. DO NOT fall for the "Gated community", Upper Class hype!
Living in Ghana has its own advantages and disadvantages. if you find a way to overcome the disadvantages living in Ghana becomes so much better and fun, but certain little things will frustrate you but if you stay calm and over look them trust me it gets much better.
I’m so happy y’all are staying in Ghana!❤️🙏🏽✊🏽🙌🏽🇬🇭🇬🇭I will be there soon, but do y’all ever think about buying land and building, because I think that’s much better?❤️
Rammed earth ecological houses in rural Ghana are fabulous, & not expensive - at all. Ethical builders are out there - I plan on being in my new house within the year.
Whether you live or stay I feel like you’ve already played a tremendous job and I’m just grateful for the work you’ve done for Ghana and Africa at large.
According to this video, the main difference between Scotland and Ghana is that it's much warmer in Ghana. That's just priceless insight right there. I would add also, David Hume was from Scotland. Mindblown?
I moved to Ghana November 2021 from London. It's been a learning curve and at times I've felt like screaming due to the lights out, lack of water and not being able to have UK banter. However, I feel: how can I ever go back to London??? Love your channel and your hair btw. Another thing is I feel like a women here, not a black women. I followed your channel by way of tips and advice prior to moving here - very helpful! Hugs xx
If you build and use off grid solutions like solar, mechanised borehole, etc you will avoid most of these issues. I am planning to move to Ghana but I won't move until I built my own place, powered by solar energy , with a mechanised borehole, etc.
Vanessa what made you choose a house with no form of proper water supply there are houses in Gana which are on the mains water as my uncl Who lives near Neema has a house that has mains water, in fact he sells it to the locals when their tanks run empty. If the tanks you have in your house empty after two days you’re either consuming a hell of a lot of water, or you have a leak somewhere. That’s what happened to my dad’s House he was literally filling them every two days, in the end he dug a bor hole but he owns his house. And if you’re missing or should I say your kids are missing those non-perishable snacks then twice a year you could do a door-to-door shipment. When my parents go they always send a massive barrel of snacks stuff that they know will cost an arm and a leg in Gana even things like washing up liquid cleaning products bleach even non-bio washing detergent, I think it was Della who said they don’t sell that in Gana. Can that be right with all the malls and supermarkets that are there.
Anytime one moves or relocates, there is need to assimilate and adapt to adjust. The psychosocial studies enlighten such process in view of psychosocial stages. The younger you are the better and quicker you adjust. Therefore toddlers and school age children do well. In addition to that, the support system you may have makes it smooth and may vary from one family to the other. But Vanessa you are well prepared. Kudos!
I admire how you have been very honest with the questions in the video. My advice to you is that whether you choose to stay permanently or not in Ghana, please grab a piece of land for yourself now. I hope very well that you have done that already. The area you might consider as bush and not developed now will turn into a bustling residential area in less than a decade. I am giving you this advice from my own experience with land matters. I remember being very sad with the area where I had my land.
All the best Vanessa together with your lovely family. Truthful assessment of living in Ghana/Accra. May the good Lord make you soar higher. Keep it up. 🙏🏿💕🙏🏿
Ghana is a great country but the government is 80% of the problem, the roads, water and electric ect, Businesses bring in the money and they don’t use it for the basics. I love how you wear Ghanaian designs, promoting our culture.
Happiness and a solid foundation is everything! You’ll have the mental energy to make choices for yourself. Since you asked, could you do a video on what it’s like for single women, over 40, without kids? Do they have any unexpected challenges? Do they just end up hanging out with the younger, single people? Your hair is perfection! I kept staring at the lines as you spoke. 😍
Thank you for the video . I like very much the way you comment and talk. I spent 2 years in Volta region in Ho with the market oriented agricultural project. 10 years ago. I had a good time. Regards from Germany.
This was great it is clear that yr not a panafrican so yr priorities are different. I like the way you present yr Ghana & yr life style & yr choices. It takes all sorts thankyou
I can’t believe you’ve been in Ghana for a year! When I started watching a year ago I assumed you had been there for years already! Wow, you have grown so much. And so much a of trail blazer when it comes to Ghanaian vlogging and showcasing the in’s and outs of Ghana. Well done 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Maaan, I've never stepped foot in Ghana, but as a UK citizen and resident, I think you'd be CRAAAAZY to come back here. It's depressing! Stay there guys! Wrote the above in the first 5 mins of the video: glad the conclusion was to stay! Thanks Vanessa. This was a really good video. I can't wait till I can visit! 🙏🏾🤞🏾🙏🏾🤞🏾🙏🏾🤞🏾 Ps, hair looks absolutely lovely! 😊
GOOD Video; Everyone Needs More Than Thier Basic Salary To Be Financially Secured, The Best Thing To do With Your Money Is To Invest, Money Left In Savings Always End Up Used With No Returns.
Nice content mate! So happy to announce that I have gained financial freedom by investing in digital currency. Now I know that multi creation of various streams of income is the ideal Principle for financial sustainability.
Exactly which is why I will always recommend Expert Arjun B Jagat to all Newbies/greenhorn interested in making bigger profits on crypto. He is reliable and profitable
I love your beautiful experiences and how well your kids have easily adapted. Concerning electricity, why not try out Solar Panel system... It should be cheaper in a long run. Maybe after moving into your own home... sending love from Nigeria 🥂
The sun in Ghana has been good to you. U know what I mean. I hope u and ur family are doing well. Stay strong and dnt leave. Ghana needs you. U are changing the narratives. Take care
I would like to know how did Oscar adjust to being around a lot more black kids. Your daughter speak so knowledgeable. It would be nice to see the kids. I’m sure they’re 😍 beautiful. Exposure to other cultures is very important for kids. We re in a global society.
Amazing. I have 2 kids here in Rwanda, they love it here but at times ask to stay in the city, we are rural. I do think about schooling as they grow older, hope all will work itself out. Thank you for sharing with us 😃
It's the responsibility of the landlord/lady to make sure you get water regularly. Check whether is an area problem or a house problem, then you can decide to see the landlord .
Good luck with your choice to stay in Ghana. I would like to see you visit different parts of Ghana. I also would like to see interviews regarding digital nomad work in Ghana.
Madam just get solar panels and hook it up to a battery. You know what I’m doing a project in Nigeria and would be importing solar panels in bulk if you want to buy some - do let me know. They are 600W each so 4 - 6 of them should power your house for free. You can plug it to a battery to run your house at night but I’m sure you don’t need it at night just use standard electricity. Let me know.
Thanks for sharing your journey. I’ll be relocating there soon. By the way, your hair is beautiful and meticulously done. It really complements your features.
Yesssss!!!!!! Like content that highlights peoples experiences moving back to Ghana. With all the contacts you have made, you should really think about producing other things.
Great content. You look good in your hairstyle. Accommodation and Transportation are key to your happiness in Ghana. Rent can pretty quickly add up, so for anyone with intentions to live in Ghana, it's best to plan such that you buy your first house before you come to Ghana. Companies like Lakeside Estate, etc have decent homes with flexible payment plans (e.g. 10% down payment, 90% within a year or 2). Buy the house in Ghana with cash while still abroad with say financing from abroad. Live abroad (say 2 - 5 yrs) and ensure a substantial part of your debt is paid. You can then comfortably come to Ghana, knowing accommodation is sorted for you. For transportation, well, save and get yourself a car. Now you are good to take Ghana by storm. The opportunities are endless. Be positive. Be willing to solve problems and make yourself and Ghana great. Good luck!
Those braids are so cute!!!! Thanks for sharing your journey. Life in GH definitely seems to come with many trials, but seems worth it for the quality of life and authentic relationships.
Scotland is cold. I didn't like it and some were not welcoming. Haven't been to Ghana in a while. Sun 🌞 always makes a beautiful change in mood. Love the sun.
It might be worth just having a high deductible low cost health insurance that has emergency evacuation then do pay as you go for every day stuff. That’s what I do in Uganda, not sure if it’s the same but they typically evacuate to South Africa for major surgery.
Good answer for amazon prime lol, Sounds like life is enjoyable in Ghana. I'm not the kind of person who wants to be on camera either, so I feel your husband. Happy Easter to you and your family.
Think you heard incorrectly, not Amazon Prime. she was talking 1 day delivery(prime) option when she buys online. So that’s prime delivery which she might not have access to when she’s in Accra compared to being in Scotland.
@@mimitamimi546 I understood that and thought her outlook was a good answer I'm sure I don't need 90 % of the stuff I buy on prime. Or I can live without it.
Vanessa, tnx for this great video! I like so much your videos 🙏🏾 I live with my family in Germany and we will move soon to Côte d’Ivoire! I am so exacting 😊 I’m scared little bit about the kids for new life but I hope it will be like by your kids and they will enjoy it! Greetings Kristine 🔆
All I have to say is wow wow wow! Well done and thank you for this wonderful update on your journey so far living in Ghana. Despite the challenges Ghana is home and will forever be home. ❤
Thank you Vanessa for being so open and honest about your experience so far. We do appreciate you too! 💛 ps. Yellow looks nice on you and you are rocking that hairstyle! 😉
How about a series of interviews with Ghana musicians - gospel and pop? But not the usual entertainment gossip, just conversations about being a musician in Ghana, life in Ghana, etc...
I live in a town not far from Accra, about an hour and a few minutes drive from Accra. Lots of stool lands for sale, good road, 24/7 water and electricity supply. Lots of fresh foodstuffs from the farms around, lots of resorts for visitors
Thanks for the update Vanessa. Really proud of you and the family for making the move. My kids and my mental well being is my motivation for wanting to move back... I've been dreaming of this move since I was 19! So I'll meet you there...
Ooh .. most Ghanaians will agree on a time. However, most of them will not tip up, they will not call to let you know they are not coming, they will not answer their phone nor give you a reason... It's just frustrating.
The 'ghosting' behaviour. In time you will also notice a passive aggressive nature. Takes a lot of patience or you just let it slide eventually and cut off the folks you can't relate with. They were there before you came, you just find a way to make things happen regardless of the odds. Others do it, the Lebanese, the Syrians, Nigerians, Nigeriens, Burkinabes, Togolese, the arrive and find the glaring gaps and capitalize and make money.
Your hair is perfection. I was looking at your hair while you were talking lol. What is the song you are playing at the end of the video? Such a great vibe!
Greetings Vanessa Kanbi, great update, I would like more vegan meal videos from your channel if you can. Thanks for sharing and I know you just love Ghana as well as does very beautiful sister. We are so grateful for you sharing your content as well.
Vanessa you really look beautiful, your skin tone is to die for. Some people spent a lot of money to have your tan and yet you get yours for free, Of course, every place got it's own issues but you look relaxed. Most importantly your content is great, I feel like I am watching national geographic explorer, very informative.
Ghana looks so much like Trinidad & Tobago where I live!! There are lots of Trinidadians in Ghana who work at Republic Bank. Can you please do a video interviewing a few of them?
Thanks for sharing beautiful all gods blessings you and the family will be fine! Keep up the good work you are doing family always comes first! I am glad the children are happy! Shalom
Once you go past the banalities like the weather and "great fruit" and you are deep into the video, you get the truth: low productivity, no health insurance, poor infrastructure, blackouts, water shortages, horrible traffic, special "Ghana" time i.e.. "I can't tell you a time", corruption, kids attend "an international school", oh my oh my, that's truly integrating into the country, isn't it then?
Yes I like the interaction of questions and answers informative insights into lived experience of Ghana.Love the natural hairstyle from the hairstylist you are using.The colour of the outfit suited your tone..Did you mention cost of clothing and hair in comparison to Uk/Ghana.Fashion styles /desighers in Ghana whether clothes/interiors maybe going forward.Or maybe close to your heart house builds to build your own home and are there different ways /!ideas say on enviromentally friend designs..Who are the innovators in Ghans??.TH-cam on them.So lacking in UK Black people being promoted and shown visually.
Electricity - Consider solar panels Internet - mtn bundle packages Water - every 2 days - that one needs fixing. U may need to hire a plumber to check for leakage
Another great video Vanessa. So glad you're enjoying Ghana. You're an inspiration for us all. And your hair...wow! Please let us know who your hairdresser is, for when we visit...:-)

Hmmm, the type of dog that chases you determines how fast you run, is not one size fits all for everyone.
MY Guy listen 👂 there's a proverbial word which says only a stranger eat a blind chicken I hope your Wise 🦉 enough to understand what's the meaning.

Its hard to tap into that unless you come from a privileged background. There are opportunities HOWEVER only if you know someone. For the avg ghanaian thats not possible.
I believe the trick is building one’s own home. Once that’s achieved, I believe one can live very comfortably.
Yes it saves you money in the long term plus the peace of mind.
Truth - but Global Warming is here to stay - avoid coastal building - you will be hammered by increasingly extreme tempests.

Once you have a home in both places... No need to choose... Go back and forth at your leisure
Whether you live or stay I feel like you’ve already played a tremendous job and I’m just grateful for the work you’ve done for Ghana and Africa at large.
So happy to see the entire family settling in. 💓enjoy Ghana 🇬🇭

GOOD Video; Everyone Needs More Than Thier Basic Salary To Be Financially Secured, The Best Thing To do With Your Money Is To Invest, Money Left In Savings Always End Up Used With No Returns.
Nice content mate! So happy to announce that I have gained financial freedom by investing in digital currency. Now I know that multi creation of various streams of income is the ideal Principle for financial sustainability.
I have secured financial freedom by investing in bonds, equities, NFT's and crypto currency the most profiting of them all..
I got 70% of my total portfolio in crypto and I have been making good profits.
I wanted to invest more in crypto, but the fluctuations in crypto value discouraged me into dumping.
Exactly which is why I will always recommend Expert Arjun B Jagat to all Newbies/greenhorn interested in making bigger profits on crypto. He is reliable and profitable
Glad you decided to stay. We are also very happy we moved to Ghana.
We love you Vanessa. Happy that you are enjoying your stay here
I’m happy for you and your family, we’re appreciate what you been doing for motherland well done 👍
I love your beautiful experiences and how well your kids have easily adapted. Concerning electricity, why not try out Solar Panel system... It should be cheaper in a long run. Maybe after moving into your own home... sending love from Nigeria 🥂

It's the responsibility of the landlord/lady to make sure you get water regularly. Check whether is an area problem or a house problem, then you can decide to see the landlord .
Vanessa you definitely seem a lot happier / more yourself being in Ghana.
Wow is a year already? Vanessa you can’t leave, we are trying to get The Acheampong’s to come back 😀.
Good luck with your choice to stay in Ghana. I would like to see you visit different parts of Ghana. I also would like to see interviews regarding digital nomad work in Ghana.

All I have to say is wow wow wow! Well done and thank you for this wonderful update on your journey so far living in Ghana. Despite the challenges Ghana is home and will forever be home. ❤
Thanks for sharing and being honest, I like the info
. about Ghana
I always like your outfits, could you post where you got them in the description box in each vid? x
Your daughter is selling me on Ghana for sure; I don't like cold weather, and ever winter in NY I regret living here
Thank you Vanessa for being so open and honest about your experience so far. We do appreciate you too! 💛 ps. Yellow looks nice on you and you are rocking that hairstyle! 😉
Hi Vanessa nice hair 😀 great up date it's nice that you continue your wonderful 🙏🙏🙏 video's
How about a series of interviews with Ghana musicians - gospel and pop? But not the usual entertainment gossip, just conversations about being a musician in Ghana, life in Ghana, etc...
I’m not a musician but being one in Ghana is difficult.The scandals are way too much
I live in a town not far from Accra, about an hour and a few minutes drive from Accra. Lots of stool lands for sale, good road, 24/7 water and electricity supply. Lots of fresh foodstuffs from the farms around, lots of resorts for visitors
Thanks for the update Vanessa. Really proud of you and the family for making the move. My kids and my mental well being is my motivation for wanting to move back... I've been dreaming of this move since I was 19! So I'll meet you there...
Thank you for the insight. I think you should do more vlogs. I really enjoy them.
I love how you don't show your husband and kids faces on your vlog. It's good to keep them off especially children.
Me too. Such a boss move. 👏🏾🙏🏾👍🏾
Protect our children's privacy.

Ooh .. most Ghanaians will agree on a time. However, most of them will not tip up, they will not call to let you know they are not coming, they will not answer their phone nor give you a reason... It's just frustrating.
The 'ghosting' behaviour.
In time you will also notice a passive aggressive nature.
Takes a lot of patience or you just let it slide eventually and cut off the folks you can't relate with.
They were there before you came, you just find a way to make things happen regardless of the odds.
Others do it, the Lebanese, the Syrians, Nigerians, Nigeriens, Burkinabes, Togolese, the arrive and find the glaring gaps and capitalize and make money.
I think your hair looks on point 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I’m happy you are staying.Ghana is a lovely place.You so beautiful 😍
Aww, they’re going to love those Scottish accents in Ghana. Hope they don’t lose them.
Incredible video I really like your content
Your hair is perfection. I was looking at your hair while you were talking lol. What is the song you are playing at the end of the video? Such a great vibe!
Even before I've watched......Vanessa?????? Stay!!!!
It’s wonderful to listen to your children 🥰
Greetings Vanessa Kanbi, great update, I would like more vegan meal videos from your channel if you can. Thanks for sharing and I know you just love Ghana as well as does very beautiful sister. We are so grateful for you sharing your content as well.
please stay permanently.
Yeyyyy!!! Glad you're staying 🤗 Congratulations on your new home - USA
Vanessa you really look beautiful, your skin tone is to die for. Some people spent a lot of money to have your tan and yet you get yours for free, Of course, every place got it's own issues but you look relaxed. Most importantly your content is great, I feel like I am watching national geographic explorer, very informative.
I envy her tan…can’t wait for a spot of sun in UK
Ghana looks so much like Trinidad & Tobago where I live!! There are lots of Trinidadians in Ghana who work at Republic Bank. Can you please do a video interviewing a few of them?
Thanks for sharing beautiful all gods blessings you and the family will be fine! Keep up the good work you are doing family always comes first! I am glad the children are happy! Shalom
Once you go past the banalities like the weather and "great fruit" and you are deep into the video, you get the truth: low productivity, no health insurance, poor infrastructure, blackouts, water shortages, horrible traffic, special "Ghana" time i.e.. "I can't tell you a time", corruption, kids attend "an international school", oh my oh my, that's truly integrating into the country, isn't it then?
You nailed it lol Ghana in a nutshell.
Yes I like the interaction of questions and answers informative insights into lived experience of Ghana.Love the natural hairstyle from the hairstylist you are using.The colour of the outfit suited your tone..Did you mention cost of clothing and hair in comparison to Uk/Ghana.Fashion styles /desighers in Ghana whether clothes/interiors maybe going forward.Or maybe close to your heart house builds to build your own home and are there different ways /!ideas say on enviromentally friend designs..Who are the innovators in Ghans??.TH-cam on them.So lacking in UK Black people being promoted and shown visually.
I LOVE YOUR HONESTY!! ALL THE BEST TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!
Electricity - Consider solar panels
Internet - mtn bundle packages
Water - every 2 days - that one needs fixing. U may need to hire a plumber to check for leakage
Yes oo massa good point
Good video Vanessa Kanbi, greetings from the Netherlands always.
Another great video Vanessa. So glad you're enjoying Ghana. You're an inspiration for us all. And your hair...wow! Please let us know who your hairdresser is, for when we visit...:-)
That you for the visuals and details. My wife and I thinking about this as well
