A Day in My Life (#20): In Ghana, West Africa!! ♡

[@alexanderschoemaker5853]

I like watching these videos so much. Ryosuke seems like such a gentle soul, he's so playful and enthousiastic and expressive. He seems to really deeply experience things with an almost childlike wonder.

[@HeatherExplores19]

Ryosuke is always so happy and has so much enthusiasm! :)

[@brebre4ya1]

It's nice to see people appreciate African culture as well. Thanks for the video! :)

[@MSW96]

4 Fake A lot of people unfortunately :P

[@annavale2352]

Ryosuke trying to get into the water was too adorable! Ghana looks so interesting, and you both seemed to be enjoying it a lot!

[@xsasukex]

These Day in my Life videos are so essential to me, you have no idea how much they are helping me and calm me down in my rushed life... I hope you and Ryosuke are doing good! I will continue to watch and rewatch and rewatch your videos..!!!

[@omguyjin3539]

[@Louise-qk2po]

I just want to say that you guys are amazing and I have enjoyed binge watching your videos so much. You both seem to be so well matched and the way you treat each other with so much kindness and compassion is fantastic. Thank you for sharing your trip to Ghana with your subscribers as well as your life in Japan.

[@kitcraft9516]

[@kacisunset]

It is so neat that you have been able to travel and explore different countries and cultures. Thanks for sharing your adventures. We have rain like that here in FL. I have been soaked to my skin in a 10 second walk from the car to the door. It is nice meeting your family too. I hope you had a fun trip!!

[@derpderpcom]

LMBO! 😂 Quotes by Ryosuke: *"I feel like I'm turning into a pineapple...FINALLY!"*

[@CatrionaReads]

Your dad has a really pleasant voice! It seems like your parents have a really nice life in Ghana :) I've only ever been to Kenya and Uganda, I'd love to see some of West Africa as well.

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Catriona Reads Africa is just so cool :) Thanks for enjoying our video~!

[@limelyx]

Wow, Ghana is so beautiful!

[@TexaninTokyo]

+limelyx I know, right? I think so too!!! (Ryosuke)

[@rsaint3384]

I absolutely love your channel and have been watching it for at least 2 years. I have been busy with school work but I caught up again today and I'm so glad to see you two are still enjoying life and having fun. I will continue to support your channel by spreading the word about it as much as possible! You two are adorable together btw and you totally remind me of one of my close friends.

[@MissFluffyghost]

It's so cool that you take this series around the world with you! Your dad looks awesome!

[@cgobeng]

So cool, i am a Texan, who was married to a Ghanaian and wanted to live in Japan. Love love these videos

[@aylaa77]

Loved this video! I hope there will be more Ghana vlogs. Thanks for doing such a great job with these.

[@barbarabee5734]

Loved this video Grace, Ryosuke! Thank you and your parents for sharing time with us! Take care and prayers to the people affected by the quakes.

[@bethorr7979]

Every thing was beautiful in this video! I have never seen water in a plastic bag before; what a great idea to cut back on plastics. Thank you very much for this video!

[@채월Sky]

Your dad is the sweetest person ever

[@TexaninTokyo]

+elizabeth western He really is!!

[@채월Sky]

+Texan in Tokyo you guysssss are amazingggg I love you so much pls be happy and love your parents :)

[@ozfan8596]

Great video! I love learning about how other people live in different countries! It's one of the reasons I initially subscribed to your channel! Your folks seem like nice people! Really enjoyed this one. Thanks!

[@EmilianaDarling]

I just arrived home from Ghana, and I can certainly sympathize with the sweating -- rainy season makes for a very humid Ghana and lots of sweat! (Also, ahh, watching your husband struggle with the water satchet was adorable. I could also tell that you've settled right in when you said it just needed a 'small small' bite -- such a Ghananian phrase!)

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Emiliana Darling Hahaha, I laughed when I was editing the video and noticed I said "small-small"

[@candysantillo3325]

So cute the way that your dad introduced your husband as his son.Heart warming.Really interesting video.Thank you.

[@candysantillo3325]

Soooo good to meet your mom and dad 😊

[@censusgary]

I really like this view of your parents' home and environs in Ghana. I hope you'll do more videos while you're there.

[@libbytwzz2032]

That's so fascinating! It looks like you guys had a good time and I'm glad you decided to do a Ghana day in your life.

[@minniaxable]

This was great, thanks for sharing! Have to admit, so jealous! And Ryosuke's face at the end had me laughing lol!! You guys are awesome

[@ericsurf6]

Wow! That was really interesting. You have very cool parents!

[@TexaninTokyo]

Thanks :) I think so too!!!

[@missysue]

I don't believe I have ever seen a vlog from Ghana, it was so interesting to see how day to day life goes there. Thanks for sharing!

[@reedrts1]

Prayers going up. So glad you all are ok! Nie to "meet" your folks and I am so glad you all are having a good time!

[@Ash-xp8fd]

This video was so cool! I loved getting to see all the people you met and the foods you tried!

[@toomanythings]

Thank you for the up-close look at this village, and the food especially. Thoroughly enjoyable video, but then yours always are.

[@nanaminako]

I hope you'll make a whole video on your parents reasons for living in Ghana and how they're doing. If you already have I may have missed it, can you link it here?

[@lexvs.design]

+nanaminako I agree to this

[@censusgary]

In previous videos (or in her blog?), Grace said that her mother is the head of a university in Ghana. I'm not sure what her father does, but perhaps he's also on the faculty? Grace also said she didn't live in Ghana with them in recent years due to her state of health.

[@lexvs.design]

+Gary Cooper tyty :)

[@blackstarghana]

I'm proud of my Ghana

[@hotd0gwater]

You guys look like you're having so much fun! can't wait for more updates. I hope you continue having a fun and safe trip ♡

[@buuny001]

Omg Ryuskei trying to drink the water was too much. 😂

[@LettersfromJapan]

+Texan in Tokyo that was really interesting. Please post more videos like this if you get the chance.

[@aspengardner2739]

Its nice to finally see her parents. Grace speaks just like her dad does, its so cute

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Aspen Gardner I didn't realize that till I was editing this video- it's kinda funny :)

[@s5g]

Wow, this was such an interesting video! Thank you so much for taking us with you on your trip!

[@andreamoboe]

Such friendly people :D Glad to see your parents in a vlog!! Look forward to a few more vlogs of Ghana - thanks :)

[@chauna5413]

This was the best Day in My Life, I'm really into African culture lately so I loved this video

[@StarRoseAngelic]

+Chauna May I ask which cultures? Africa has numerous different ethnic groups even with the same country. And each of these groups have their own languages and cultures. For example I'm apart of the Igbo tribe :)

[@chauna5413]

StarRoseAngelic tbh I am interested in all of Africa as a Continent Anywhere from Nigeria Qatar, Ethiopia, Madagascar, Tanzania, Dubai, Egypt etc etc. I always love watching new documentaries about different African countries since school doesn't really teach us much of anything about anything I like to do my own research learning about different tribes, wars, poverty, Ebola, sex trafficking, I like to be informed about what's going on in the world :)

[@chauna5413]

oh and I meant to say African cultures. Yea I forgot which country in Africa it was but they have over 800 languages and I think that's either freaken cool or super hard yo communicate with people. I think it was Papua New Guinea (which also has the highest number of canablism and use they use a mean of screaming to communicate. I just they are so far behind the rest of the world, money is still new to them

[@markstafford6357]

I work with some guys from Ghana and I love them !!! Great Vidio

[@bAssackwardsGP]

Wow! That was really cool! Thank you for sharing a Ghana Day in My Life. The food looked great.

[@jordanjnw]

I love watching your videos, you guys always make me smile with your relatable quirks and cuteness!

[@minachananimefan]

awwww.....ruyske so adorable he couldn't open a water ....then grace was like its cute but let move on ....made my day once again

[@paultanguay6174]

Always a pleasure to watch your videos. As per usual I learned a lot and look forward to any more day in the life videos you make!

[@taqou]

When I saw the palm wine I immediately thought of Calpis, so it was funny that Ryosuke said they tasted similar. I looked it up, and apparently Calpis has an acidic flavor due to being produced through lactic acid fermentation. Palm wine also seems to be made through a process of lactic and acetic acid fermentation, which likely gives it the similar acidic flavor of Calpis. Interesting stuff.

[@dena81]

You have such an awesome, international family! Glad to hear things are okay in Tokyo. Very much looking forward to my trip there in a couple of months!

[@fridaafia8793]

this vlog takes me right back to my time in Ghana. it is almost 4 years ago now, time runs too fast.... I really miss it, the people, the food and even the hot african sun It sems both of you really enjoyed your time there :)

[@mccormickmb]

So cool guys! I did 4 trips to Ghana while I was in college. Brought back so many memories.

[@MsBurntToast]

Love this. Thanks so much for showing us a snippet of Ghana!

[@stargirl7646]

Wow! That was an incredibly interesting video! :-O So many cultures intersecting at once... Really fascinating. Thanks for sharing!

[@xpolarisjo]

Wow! Thank you for sharing, Grace and Ryosuke. It was very intriguing. It's nice to see a part of the world I know nothing about. Arigato. 😀

[@changminoppa5262]

omggg!! Ryosuke is sooo adorable, him struggling with the pure water was funny

[@clawhammr666]

The food seems great, well probably a looot fresher then we get in stores/supermarkets.

[@emmahallows]

Love watching videos like this. Always fills me with ideas of where to travel next!

[@SonNeko]

That was so interesting, thanks for sharing!

[@TexaninTokyo]

+SonNeko Glad you found this interesting~ :)

[@redheadvamp]

That was so interesting. Thank you for sharing. You two are so cute together! Your parents are great and I see where you get your sense of adventure. Have a fantastic day.

[@richardlannon]

[@allisontorres8429]

[@StupidstuffidoCoUk]

Been subbed for quite a while and love all your videos, but this one was so well edited and interesting it is by far my favourite!

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Stupid Stuff I Do thanks :)

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Stupid Stuff I Do thanks :)

[@JustMadeleine08]

I wish i could go to Africa! Love these "Day in my life" videos!

[@talesontables]

at some point in life, everybody wants to become a pineapple.

[@honeyreyes4384]

We have those touch me nots/bow plants in Hawaii, too! I forgot what it was called there. I used to play with them in high school. Couldn't get enough.

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Honey Reyes I love them sooo much!!! (Ryosuke)

[@Rockport1911]

What an adventure, thanks for showing us around. Traveling to this place is probably a little adventure in itself. Your parents are great :)

[@Cara_girlwithhat]

This was very cool to see. Thanks for sharing parts of your trip!

[@mariem24601]

Oh, now I'm nostalgic for drinking liquids out of bags. Mauritania didn't have the commercial bagged water- you had to pay waaay more for bottled if you wanted non-tap water, but you could get bissap juice and yogurt and stuff in baggies. Or if you bought soda, you would get it in the bag. I remember traveling to Senegal and Ghana for vacation and being so excited by how cheap the clean water was, and all the bagged sugary milk and drinks we could buy at the garage or out the window of the bus on trips.

[@honeyreyes4384]

I got nostalgic, too! We do something similar in the Philippines for sodas. They'll sell it by serving (vs per bottle/can). They'll pour it in a clear plastic bag and tie a straw inside it. You then carry it around with you and drink out of the bag by the straw. ❤️

[@slimyweasles4973]

:) You could do a whole video about Ryosuke reacting to food.

[@brittneystark3084]

Y'all are great, thank you for doing a day in my life while traveling. It was really neat to see the town, and all the baby animals :)

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Brittney Stark All the baby animals~♪

[@danielmaxwell6107]

Ryosuke makes me laugh everyday😂 Don't ever change

[@alfonsopadua1265]

More Ghana vlogs, before you leave pls. I loved this, very interesting so how was the drinks? We're they very strong, sour, bitter?

[@MarianaCagnin]

wow ghana kinda reminds me of brazil's rural area! like the vegetation, chickens and even houses.. no wonder, since our culture tough very mixed have strong african influence

[@ahoufe_jay]

They are showing the rural part of Ghana, not the city

[@sharifa7884]

omg grace! !! I love you guys soo much . I'm half japanese and half ghanaian! omg can't believe you came to my other country !!!

[@TexaninTokyo]

+Sharifa Rina Warepkei Hahaha, that's so cool! I love both of your countries!!!

[@haylz27]

Good timing!! I am glad i saw this before i went to sleep. :)

[@usagination]

wasn't expecting that but im positively surprised by ghana everyone looked so nice and kind and also the food looked delicious

[@Sweetchik2007]

it's really fun to experience and learn new things, see new places by watching you two. Nice to see your family too~

[@haylz27]

This was so interesting! I wish there was more videos of Ghana. :) and is it weird if I say your parents are adorable?! 😂 They are so nice. :)

[@stephiejoe3784]

Ryosuke's reaction in 8:27 is so adorable! Like he's tasted the best drink in the world or something! >///

[@nanaimogirl2000]

I love riosukis reaction to the wine

[@BKPrice]

That water in the bag thing reminds me of Guatemala, where we would buy a soda and they would pour it into a plastic zip-loc bag and put a straw in it, and that was how we would drink it.

[@josejuegajuegos7296]

Very cool, loved this video. Watching this I'm reminded of the African influence in my home country, Puerto Rico, in the little details.

[@crumb9cheese]

Awwwwww thats so cool. I would love to visit Africa. Ur parents looks so chill. Cool that they are teachers

[@crumb9cheese]

Oh ya forgot. The rain is normal for here (florida). Its like a monsoon some days

[@TexaninTokyo]

+crumb9cheese You should!! I love my parents! They are just so inspirational :)

[@cindytakyi8222]

Ahhhh!!!! My parents are from Ghana (moved to Europe in their twenties) And my favourite KZbinrs are going there! I can die happy right now

[@fazute]

That was an awesome video about Ghana, interesting stuff and it looks really ancient. ummm well, good tour of the small village, cheers

[@site_alpha_Liberty_Cat]

You guy's are rocking it! Keep it up!

[@Rebekkamaria]

Thank you so much for this video. It was awesome to see you just walking around in the town. :) Looks wonderful.

[@CastIronSteak]

I love your video, Grace! Very exciting to see you and hubby explore the world :). The only thing I would add (and perhaps it's just my thing) is that the camera wobble gave me a bit of a headache!
