Living in Ghana is not always fun | 7 tips to defuse the downside
Ik ben een groot fan van wonen en leven in Ghana, maar net als overal ter wereld is het echt niet altijd leuk hier. De kunst is om de negatieve aspecten om te buigen en daar ga ik je bij helpen in dit artikel.

Het ligt aan de bui waarin je die dag bent, het ligt aan de financiële middelen die je ter beschikking hebt en de reden waarom je in Afrika bent.
