A young American moved to Ghana to run a laundromat

A young American moved to Ghana to run a laundromat
I will be honest, whenever I meet a young person in their early 20s move to Ghana or Africa, my respect and admiration is another level. It's because I've always had the perception that it's a thing for the old; or maybe I've underestimated the younger generation.
In this video, I speak to Yasmin, a young American who's moved to Ghana to run a laundry business. She thinks starting a business in Ghana is easier. You will get inspired. My Name is Mickey...Keep Watching!!!
Every country has a story; so does its people. I get to travel and visit different parts of the world due to the nature of my work, so I take viewers with me in the form of vlogs to explore and tell beautiful stories of the people and the places that I am working.
I am dedicated to provide deep, meaningful and entertaining contents for you, my viewers....
So enjoy!!!

This young sister strikes me as very grounded, clear-minded and purpose-driven and I can see her thriving in Ghana, despite all the challenges. I'll be praying for more personal growth for her and the success of Qadash. A big Akwaaba to her and her family.

How is that a 23 year old can look so sure of herself, calm and grounded. Notice how she says she is already learning Twi - she is in it for the long term. Attitude is really everything. Pretty impressed. I also like how she did not want to dwell in details of any prior harrassment as it seems to me just reliving past trauma.

[@nanaasafu-adjaye4239]

Would have been nice finding out if as a Coker their immediate ancestors where Ghana/Nigeria, and also, why Kumasi. The latter being because most often those looking to stay in Ghana stop to settle in Accra or somewhere along the coast rather than farther inland.

Nah you didn't miss anything. And they do have a business; 2 branches. I did see their operations but for some reason my guest wasn't keen on me going behind the scenes and I had to respect that. Maybe it was their first time on camera. Thanks for the feedback though.

@@MickeyAgyei Yeah that doesn't make sense why would you not want to show what services you provide since it's technically a new type of service to the community.

Be sure to link up with a LOT of diasporans to help you settle in. It's a very big change from your fast-paced American life to the slow-but-sure Ghana life. If you are going to employ Ghanaians, do not do that until you watch some farmer video from a Ghanaian KZbinr called Selasi. You will learn a lot about behavior and work attitudes of the people,- whether they will help you succeed or sabotage you; whether they will stop coming to work soon as they get first salary or not, etc. Good luck
