Tsara-vie

I wrote the blog below in September 2017. At the time, I had been living in Ghana for over a year. While I no longer work full-time in Ghana, a lot of what I wrote still remains true.
I always had a special but distant connection to Ghana. I often used the traditions as excuses for my parents’ rules and actions that sometimes clashed with my Canadian way of thinking. Shouting over the phone during my conversations with my grandparents were integral to my upbringing.
