  • A Third Culture Kid is a person who has spent a significant part of his/her developmental years outside the parents' culture. This is definitely how I would describe Abeo and Asad.
    In this video they talk about growing up while living in multiple different countries, their experiences and advice they'd give to other teens moving to Ghana.

    These children are so cultured! I hope they are okay here because my twins were absolutely miserable. 🥹
    Your daughter is absolutely correct about the children being much more mature. I saw the difference when they were visiting. You have two lil diamonds right there. They deserve greatness and you’ve done a fantastic job of delivering just that to them through their travel experiences.

      They're okay here mostly because they like the school they're at...otherwise Accra doesn't have much to offer them tbh. It's a struggle for all of us living here at times. We are making it work though. 🖤

    Your kids have been blessed to grow up and experience their formative years without a colonial mindset and not have their souls/spirits polluted by western imperialism and capitalism. Ancestors smile on you and your family!

    Awwww..... the kids saying they loved 🇹🇿 was 😢. There is a wonderful diasporan community especially at FUMBATOWN, Znz that has alot of AA teenagers, and they are _Thriving_ , they go to the ocean and swim, restaurants and plaza on site, paved roads for biking. Hopefully one day you can come visit. Poa Dada!

      ​@PritTeaBeaUTea Accra is hard. We enjoyed the outskirts in Ghana more than the main city. Even Kumasi (a big city) is more livable than Accra - overhyped and overpriced.
      Try the Volta region (for the mountains and waterfalls). We also really loved going to Ada/Ada Foah because we're boaters and anglers. There are lots of other places outside Accra that are not talked about on youtube.
      Don't give up yet, it's so much you might not have seen. Good luck!

    The dust storm she's talking about is during the Harmattan season, between November and February. I was surprised how severe and long it lasted in Ghana though. With my experience growing up in Nigeria, it usually last for about one month - from November to December.
    We just left Ghana after 5 months and now in Nigeria. We want to do the quad East African countries and could use some of your recommendation, especially Tanzania. How can we connect further to discuss please?
