WHY SHE LEFT GHANA AND MOVED TO JAPAN.. it's not why you think | Japanese Ghanaian | Living in Ghana

[@ginacoleman788]

After watching lots of KZbin videos, I see the challenges, and there are many. My prayer for Ghana is the country continues to grow while maintaining their wonderful culture.

[@oceejekwam6829]

Marintia is very open and frank. We pray for a complete recovery. Many people would "gloss over" over the health challenges to cover their vulnerability. Full credit to Marintia.

[@ghanafo]

My Prayer goes out to Marintia, with excellent health and peace of mind, let God come through for you ma dear. Happy to see you guys again. Love ya

[@IvyProsper]

2:44 I can understand leaving when you have Chrohn's disease. An old colleague of mine suffered from that. It's tough. I can imagine the challenges if you're in Ghana.

[@AMOUREDD]

Is it because it is not a common thing so our hospitals don't have facilities for them?

MISSED YOU🥹

[@kwadjoekaya6559]

Thank you ladies (Anna, Eiko, Vanessa, and the other one) among other Ghanaian diasporan children for promoting Ghana in early 2020s- 2022. Your country, Ghana, really appreciates you (I know you are both mixed race kids, nonetheless Ghanaians anyway). Eiko, your mom heard the statement (drinking).....lol I worked for a Japanese company for nearly 10 years in US and visited Tokyo quite often, so I'm familiar with the culture, including the work ethics.

[@speakingheaven]

Marintia back with Vanessa! Keep vlogging! The chit-chat and the love is all good 👍🏾 Cood vibrations!

[@rawfootagegirl]

32:44 i'm lightyears not-a-parent but i have heard and do agree and resonate with many people stressing how important platonic friendship is regardless of romantic relationship status. you still learn so much from other people and forge new memories, and that's important in and of itself

[@wheatie83]

Wow thanks for being so vulnerable Maritia. Im living in Ghana now. From the usa.

[@emmaafriyie5170]

I am so sorry to hear you were not feeling well. Humira is great for those with Autoimmune disease. Some people get severe side effects and others don’t so glad you are doing well. Health comes first so I am glad you are getting the help you need.

Vanessa Kanbi I think you were at 23K Subscribers when I subscribed to your channel.m which likely connected Me to Marintia’s channel, and I subscribed. You’re both refreshing, and unique in your own ways. I was in Ghana at the start of Coro Coro, grateful for your highly valued content. I remember mention of Bali, so that would be a great place for a meetup. Family Friendly eliminates barriers for an epic meetup in Japan guided by Auntie Marinthia.

Point taken all 4 girls left Ghana the Japanese wanted to go to the United States but because she couldn't get a visa went back to Japan. So younger people all want to live in western countries.

She went to Georgia Tech in the US.

​@@Frank-Bediko62Maybe She Overstayed. Going to school in USA didn't not mean that you will be getting Visas every time you applied

Great video Ladies. Just my two cents from personal experience: 1) Your health issues can be resolved if you change your diet. Check out Dr Ken Berry videos. You can be med-free in about 3-6 months if you change… No need to be medicine dependent based on how you eat. It is real… 2) Keep up the great work. See you one day in J-town. Peace
