22:21 No it’s not new, There’s always water and soap at the chopbar so u gotta wash your hands before you eat even before corona . He didn’t understand your question in English 😊. Good job David!

that guy is wrong🤣🤣🤣. hand washing before u eat is a thing even before corona. they always put water in a bowl and give you soap. Even at home when u have visitors u give them a bowl of water with soap. David is chopping it up. I need to go back to Ghana soon😭

Very shady🤣🤣🤣🤣... I guess he did not really understand what he said.

I think he was talking about the too much soap, but yeah it can be misunderstanding... :-) ;-)

You are right sister that is African tradition

To see weaving like these people do amazing and fast. As some one who sees this in his dailly in my job,a weaving company,all of my respect

Phenomenal the Weaving Manager and Adinkra guy were very knowledgeable. I had goosebumps listening to the powerful history and explanation behind the kente story. David thank you for showcasing the best of Ghana. These Tours are amazing. I don't miss any of your videos. Keep them coming and thank you again. I hope you go to Tamale aswell.

[@michaelfelberbaum3006]

The craftwork and craftsmanship is simply awesome. Although the process is extremely labor intensive.

[@myAfricanAffairs]

Natural/manual way of doing things is labor intensive but that makes it unique.

[@mzsprettymena]

Im from ghana and i absolutely lived the process of the cloth making. Very impressed. Thabjs David. I want to go for a tour also

Love how you featured the artisans and supported them! They are so talented! -S

[@divaprettyakakapequeen9438]

I’ve been watching David and I’m salivating so much and enjoying the adventure. But just was surprised when I heard the waiter answering no to hand washing before eating and it’s only in Covid era. We’ve always washed our hands from Adam before we eat. Water scarcity or not we do wash our hands just part of our culture in many areas in Ghana so far as I know. Thank you David for respecting and adjusting even better than some of us. Wish you God speed!

[@khufupoku7855]

@David , I don't think the guy you asked "this is how it always is even before covid." Understood you lol 😂😂😀. Because the hand washing before a meal, is a normal thing and has always been 😁😉.. I enjoy your videos💪🤘

I just love how you enjoying the foods 😋😋😋😁

[@oceejekwam6829]

This is really instructive. Are the weavers well paid? I noticed since arriving in Asante Region, you've stopped eating rice.

[@techbaey6206]

Why should he eat rice in the Ashanti region? It's not our food. The Kente weavers own the Kente company/shops. They own the business. They pay themselves unless you are an apprentice.

[@maryannnkansa7145]

An interesting thing I learned recently is that although the weaving is done mostly by men in the southern part of Ghana, when you go to the northern part it's done mostly by the women

[@timnicole545]

I was just about to say the same time because in north the see some work for only women.

Hey David. I'm watching all your videos. Just a suggestion saying use Celsius, because only American use that. And Km.....By the way as I'm Canadian. Cheers 🍻

[@afiaowusu20]

Good stuff David but please don't advise people to use Kente as a bedsheets or table cloths. Kente is a big part of Ghanaian heritage and culture, with a lot of value and pride placed on it. Most Ghanaians will find it very insulting to see it reduced to mere house hold use..

[@princeceo4179]

That is not true what the guy who poured the water to wash your hands said that washing hands before eating just started, it has been like that washing hands before eating all the time and not because of COVID-19, he never understood what you said.

[@apharymyahsharyl704]

where is this weaving village located and the one where the dye making was? i'm going to suggest it to our group as one our sites on the next trip for 2022. wish we could have went here this year but we've already done our 2021 tour . gotta love Ghana culture.
