In 2010, I made a trip to Ghana, W. Africa. It was 6 months that changed my life. For me, it was an important part of piecing together my identity. I swore I& #39;d come back. So in 2013, I made the move from Southern Californa to Ghana, West Africa & I haven& #39;t looked back. [Thread]

People greet each other in the street and children are polite to a fault. My mother says itâs a lot like growing up in the south (minus the racism of course). Ghanaians overall are notoriously friendly people.
Ghanaians also only have a vague sense of linear time. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Gesicht mit Freudentränen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Freudentränen"> This is annoying but there& #39;s e a joke that GMT stands for Ghana Man Time. You just have to accept that youâre gonna have âOmg Iâve been waiting for this man for an hourâ moments & heâs texted heâs almost there 3 times.
