No Lights No Water

Life in Ghana (No Water in Africa) Clean Water Problems!

This video is all about water and power outages here in Ghana, and, more importantly for you expats dreaming about your African Life… what on Earth you’re supposed to do about it.

When it comes to life in Ghana versus life in America, water is absolutely one of those key differences. You have to learn what it’s like to have no lights no water and no idea when you’ll get them back.

Yeah… that includes bucket baths 😲!

You may also struggle with CLEAN water! Is Tan-Brown a real water color?

Moving to Ghana from American can be tough. Check out what it’s really like…

    Your site is very detailed and informative. I don’t think I can give up my 2018 Maxima 300 HP and travel on those roads.
    You all are akin to pioneers
    I heard about the corruption from more than one source. They get here in America and try the same stuff in New York, New York if they have a position in a job.
    Thanks for the info. I’m on a site called AfroIntroductions.com and some of those young ladies are scammers so as my brother said ” it’s like findind a needle in a haystack ”
    God Bless you all in your endeavors
