As someone from Kumasi, this was so fun to watch. A few things to note; When the taxi driver mentions 3 million, he actually means 300c. People in Ghana quote the currency figures in two ways. Before the redenomination and after. After the redenomination, 4 zeros were cancelled. So 3,000,000 = 300. People in Kumasi aren't too fluent in English. So sometimes when you speak the Twi, with your accent, they still think you're speaking English and don't respond. That's also why some of them weren't too communicative. Eg the driver The sachet water isn't free. He just bought it for you ( the driver ).
I am 65yo, Live in California and Arizona. Retired. Mr. S you are an inspiration. I actually get Afraid, Happy, Wonderous, Intellectually enriched watching.. Blown away per your ability to communicate. THIS IS What good social media vids are about. Be SAFE, great work.
I was born there, ghana is 1000 time peaceful than the US. The reason you are afraid is the constant negetive portrayal of Africa. There is nothing to be afraid of.
Love your videos Tommy, praying for your safety on your travels. It’s really amazing what u can do and the people u meet. Every time I watch one of your shows videos I’m witnessing a real blessing. Keep sharing the world brother !!🧡
It’s not hard if you just try to learn the language and talk to people but there are always risks involved. Most people are good but the predators always go for people who look different or stand out. I’ve done just like him but he’s really brave doing it where he stands out so utterly and completely
I liked this video before I even watched it because I really, really enjoy each & every video Tommy uploads, thanks Tommy for this upload, its's a nice treat for a Friday night ☺👍
Here comes another amazing video from my RUclips mentor, glad to be learning from you little by little and thanks for taking us around the world, we are going to be one of the best RUclipsrs from Nigeria one day ....❤️🙏
Lol Tommy inspiring a generation of lazy cameras from Nigeria to Tokyo. He’s also my favorite traveler on RUclips cause he learns the language and knows how to make friends with the locals (except when he tries to stir up conflict between Nigerian jollof and Ghana jollof, I was saying “no man! Don’t!”. I like the simple editing too, no need for fancyness
My in-laws are from Ghana. My wife is Zambian. Her brother is a good man high up in military working "peace keeping" opts. However he is off now and would be a safe and good contact in many countries due to his travel and military work in several countries surrounding Zambia. If you want, reach out. I'm an American but have many in laws living in many parts of west and central Africa.
Lol what do you mean by he's still alive? We don't go about killing people. Africa is safer than the rest of the continents and to be honest Ghana is so peaceful and safe for anyone so clear that filt from your mind. Nothing will happen to him. He'll only have the best of life here
I really appreciate how Sabbatical moves around like he doesn’t realize he’s a Mzungu 😂, this is how you tour Africa 🌍! Somalia 🇸🇴 is waiting for you! 🇸🇴❤️🇬🇭
Somalia is crazy bro.... One of the worse country to visit in Africa and i will never recommend someone to go visit Somalia and Northern Nigeria plus Eritrea
Love your videos Tommy🏴 love learning about other cultures people. Health and happiness is the key to life no matter what you have. Travelled by boat to reach the communities. Loved that there were cars and trucks when you arrived 😁🍻
Hey man I just wanna say thanks for giving us some awesome content. Been watching for almost a year now and I can’t wait for a new video every time. You have shown me places I never even knew existed and given some amazing knowledge of these places. Thanks Tommy!
Those of you complaining about the taxi fare , that’s about $30, and I heard him saying the taxi is taking him there, wait while he tours and bring him back. If he stays there the whole day who looses.
Sabbatical, I'm a Ghanaian content creator too but the prices they mentioning are ridiculous, going with a locals will help a lot. Been following you and Josey for while...
Right? In general it helps a lot to have a local with you in such local places, although I have to admit, it’s fun to watch him stumble to figure things out. Reminds me of my traveling in Asia before I made local friends
😀😀...everybody is corrupt, from taxi driver to politicians. Btw...how do you know the price wasn't fair? Did sabbatical tell you the distance? Abeg, don't assume things.
@@emmanuelameyaw9735 lol you got a point but even that, ¢300? 😂 That's too much bro. Even going from Accra to Kumasi shouldn't cost that much. That fare should be 50 at most
Hey Tommy if you get chance to visit Ivory Coast there’s some interesting places to see like the largest cathedral in the world in Yamoussoukro. Also a dipi crocodile farm the presidential quarter that also has crocodiles around the perimeter and a hydro dam. Not to mention night life in Abidjan. Stay safe west Africa is great to visit.
Hello from Canada Ontario I really love your videos Man keep up the great work it helps me get through some tough times I love the energy of your videos one of the best travel channels❤👍
i still can't believe you're not up to a million subscribers when obviously you produce some of the best content on RUclips Your Nigerian vlogs made me like your channel although i'm a Ghanaian We Miss Rosey as well
Always enjoy your travells in some of the interesting places around the world. You are a brave man in some cases, trusting and yet safe. Love your videos. Looking forward to your doing Southern Africa at some point.
Copy&Paste > Lake Volta, Ghana: The Biggest Reservoir in the World by Surface Area. Lake Volta, located in the South-Eastern part of Ghana, is the largest man-made lake in the world. Covering 8,502 km2, it is the biggest reservoir by surface area, and the fourth largest on the planet by volume (148 km3).is contained behind the Akosombo Dam which generates a substantial amount of Ghana's electricity. Also there are Hippopotamuses, and Crocodiles found in the Lake Volta, plus various species of Fish
When I went to places like Jamaica, Cuba, etc. it drove me nuts when these "tour guides" would start following me around talking about stuff and then expect money. I never asked for any help or tour guide so I'm not paying some guy to follow me around.
All I knew of Kumasi was the drill music, and it seemed like a bit intimidating (good music tho). Glad to see another side of the place. I’m really liking Ghana.
7:46 does anyone think that the candy starburst might have been named after natural cocoa because of the fruit's shape from an angle and that it's "bursting open" seems to be required
Love your videos Tommy and glad you are showcasing Ghana. I'm also called Kofi. Try visiting some of the affluent areas in Accra such as Labone, Cantonments,, Airport and Airport Hills.
You must be new to his channel. He always says he avoids the rich areas and prefers to go to the streets where the normal common man stays as he finds the life there more enjoyable.
You are stilling learning and please you need to get someone to take you around cause some of the price are really high and going with a local person you will not pay that price.. Nice video proud to be a Ghanaian 🇬🇭
Nice to have you back again. I’ve come to be convinced that you need a professional sketch/portrait artist (me) come along with you on these extraordinary cool trips. Great travel video…so many faces to draw!
your videos do impact people in many ways as you are free from judging and undermining other peoples cultures and views. Above all you do camouflage into the daily lifestyles of your surroundings. Jah bless
Tommyyy! Happy to see this video! Missed you content, man. Are you uploading onto another platform or not posting much atm? Love your videos, always looking forward to witness your travels!
"I think you have to wear your seatbelt... for the noise" hahaha your polite approach is such a necessary thing in life. Some people would just sit and stew or become embarrassed but you did the right thing 😆
I love how Tommy encourage the children by saying they can make a chocolate factory!! Even though it was a little tree encouraging them to think and dream big!! Tommy is great with children! 🌸💜

After charging me GHS 300 for this short journey, he must be his personal driver for 1 week. GHS 300 is just too much
Thanks a lot for the clarification!
Government water 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hmmm never seen him give her money but okay
It's always a great day when Tommy uploads!
very nice video Tommy! welcome to Ghana!
That struggle with the seatbelt is real in Africa
@baba manali ..Africa is not a country
@@kenjournals happens in multiple African countries believe me.

How about you say it’s real in Ghana. Kenya doesn’t do that shit. The noise itself is annoying!
@@leonardmabele7446 Sure!
I am Ghanaian I apologize for the conduct of the taxi driver . He tried to cheat u. It was way too expensive. Big sorry 🇬🇭 🇺🇸

My favourite part about this channel, is how it showcases how no matter how different our cultures may be, we are all human
I felt like the kid on the swing who asked if Sabattical knew god, was trying to say this exact thing 😀

The taxi driver didn't cheat him. Gh300 was even cool. Accra you will pay Ghc500 to 600

The boats remind me of guyana 🇬🇾 too... beautiful traveling along the river.
Aww, the way the little girl responded to you was so cute. Her face just lit up too.
