I have a friend in Ghana who says that we can now exchange all denominations of bills in addition to the $100. I haven't attempted it so, I will take mostly $100 notes. I wish someone could confirm...

Before the new Cedi, it was nearly impossible to exchange any USD notes smaller that $100. Now that the new Cedi is near 1:1, can we exchange smaller notes that USD 100?

My 1st time in Ghana, I...

What is the impact of the new Cedi? I assume that Hotels are unaffected but, all the street negtiable prices increased slightly and that P4P is the same as its always been.

I'm about to head to South Africa near Johannesburg on business then take an extended vacation. Don't take this as critism but, I'm still baffled why many on this board go to outcall services. I've...

Credit cards were accepted most places in Osu as well as various places in Accra but, don't count on them being accepted everywhere in Accra. Outside Accra, I couldn't find any hotel in Tema that...

This is a serious question not at all rhetorical.

Why monger in South Africa at all? It seems that finding fast women is pretty easy without finding professionals. Or am I wrong? I see so many...

I've been travelling since I was a teen in the 1970s and I've posted hundreds of reports in the past. I was an original poster on the original WSG in the mid 1990s on trips to Hong Kong, Taiwan,...

I've paid as little as less than the equivalent of $5.00. If you pick up a pro from Macumba, maybe the equivalent of $20-$30. The hottest looking, best dressed pro will be a professional room...

I see that some people are taking cell phones to give away vs. cash. That seems imprudent but, I am curious nontheless. When I was in Ghana, the foreigners living there used satellite phones vs....

I have Scheduled and cancelled several trips to Haiti the last 4 years. I was even turned away at the border from DR once. I have no problem stepping into most countries of Africa but, Haiti seems...

I'm assuming that Max is either talking to someone else without posting the salutations at the top or simply joking. Certainly, he's not posting lost-in-romance type thoughts here.

I think I posted a couple years back when I first went to Ghana. When I was in Ghana, I tried to set up a tour into the Volta River. I escaped what was the beginning of a scam-job by the only US...

Sky High,
It wasn't intending to be rude, I thought you might have been someone who's been PMing me.

If you want to get away in Africa, the safest English speaking country is Ghana. I recommend...

Unless I'm reading this wrong, your answer is: Absolutely, no place in Africa. Go to Thailand. So many American Suburbanites think they want to travel someplace different yet stay in someplace...

Nigeria in general is a huge hastle; abundant in crime; you will always be harrassed and always targeted for some sort of scam.

You can get around safely in Ghana. I traveled all over the country...

Although my culture finds it acceptable for one race to justify the negative, I don't accept it and more than a little sick of it. Its to the African American's advantage to keep equalty-race issues...

I am a white American married to an African woman. African American women and African women are the complete opposite side of the spectrum as far as black women go. Africans are generally polite,...

I've been to Asia, North America, South America, Carribean, Europe, and Africa; Africa is the best.


Tourists on a schedule love Asia and latin America. International tourists generally work...

Probably not your best bet. Bring denominations of $100 dollar bills, yes, you read correct. $100 dollar bills. You will take them and exchange them one at a time as you need money. You will get a...

Without retrieving maps and old documents, I'll try to tell about when I went to Palawan in 2001 for 5 weeks. I was recovering from back surgery and a horrible divorce. The flight o Manila was the...

Your photo of Rama is one of the hottest women on this board. Have fun for all of us.

Can I get around well enough if I only speak English, some Spanish, but no Portuguese?

My favorite places for Asian: Thailand, Philippines, For African: Ghana, For Latin: Dominican Republic (Colombia but its too dangerous for a novice), For Anglo: Estonia. If you seek advice, I...

The site is great for meeting African women IF you are going to an African country very soon. You can line up many women to meet you someplace you are not at a disadvantage. Don't send money EVER! ...
