I have a theory about the lateness, I think it’s because of the weather ! It’s so hot and humid, u get easily tired if you move fast as opposed to the west where you have to move fast because of the cold.

Nope, other cultures around the world have polycronic time. Almost only long developed countries, such as Japan/England..., have monocronic time.

Hey Ya'll, ya gotta stay at The Lodge with Tony and the Crew. They will definitely treat you right, show you the sites, and keep you over fed! (They know where to get the foufou!) When you visit, you gotta meet Mr Jimmy--Tony's tailor--for the best tailor-made threads--out of this world. Shout out to Sarah, the beauty-queen of Tema!

[@nefertemur8951]

Greetings Expat Life Ghana, Ayo and Tony, you both look so well rested and I’m assuming that it’s the lifestyle in Ghana that makes you both so relaxed. From your mood, you both are well entrenched in the Ghanaian tradition. Maybe it’s the “Ghana Man Time” you both have since you left the illusion of prosperity “The US.😊. It’s amazing, with “Ghana Man Time” that anything gets done there in a timely matter. When we finally decide to visit Ghana, we will definitely use your services as your prices are indeed reasonable. I definitely love the array of colorful clothing there and look forward to adding some of the selections to my wardrobe. Thanks so much for sharing my beloved couple.

[@kimberlymensah5063]

Glad I’m catching one of your videos! I wanted to chime in and say that I have actually eaten grass cutter and it’s pretty good. I just think of it as being like rabbit, and I have tasted rabbit and like it. The grass cutter we ate was smoked. My husband bought it fresh and his brother smoked it for us. Then I made soup with it and it was actually really good. It was ground nut soup that I made. I’m so glad as I said that I got to sit down and watch your videos. We have been here a year and five months we have hit the ground running and have not stopped yet.😂😂😂 you guys have done and are doing an amazing job. Keep up the great work.

The independence celebrations is coming soon, the 6th of march. Maybe you should cover it. I heard is going to be huge and special, because it is the last time for the President before he leaves office. Already it is always nice, but bigger and special.

[@theuntoldforgottenofham6340]

Good morning to you and your wife. My name is Vansworth McKenzie. My reason for reaching out to you and your wife, is to introduce to you and your wife my up date version of my history book that is call the Untold Forgotten Great Civilization of the people of Ham. The people of Ham are known today as the so-call Black people, the so-call African people, and the so-call Middle Eastern people. These names were given to the people of Ham, by the Gentile European colonial conquerors of the land of Ham and his people for us to see ourselves as such. Thank you, and I do hope you may pass on the knowledge to your families and friends. Thank you.

[@Akos885]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@africaine4889]

You might go and rewrite that book of yours because us bantus are not Ham. Never been and will never be.

The body language is different with a West African An African American has a different body language that can’t be changed just like if the West African goes to USA he can not change to a African American because of the body language
