Foe DELBOSQUE Back To Ghana
Sir,
Thank you for reporting my name among your sources of inspiration for your Ghana reentry.
As always, after a long absence, you will find disappointments and appreciations. Count that Ghana has changed in 25 years, you have changed and the world has changed.
One of the most significative aspect that will affect your new visit to Ghana will certainly be the advent of the digital era. I have experienced some good adventures using applications as WeChat that is very used in Ghana, despite of being the direct contact very predominant there.
Also the possibility to be always reachable and always be able to reach others, changes completely the way of leading relations in the country.
The aid that Google Maps offers when you are on the road is incomparable with any kind of paper map, specially in the night or in a new place.
I think the best way to experience Ghana after 25 years is to afford it as a completely new experience and as I always recommend, don't spend too long time in Accra because as city it is too big, crowded, chaotic and bad organized.
I even had been in Tamale and Bolgatanga and I found an excellent situation there.
I hope to read new reports about your staying there and count on me for any info and direction.
Keep us posted.
[QUOTE=DelBosque;2277108]Next month I go back to Ghana, my first time was twenty five years ago.
I want to see the difference and hope to have again a good time.
I think I go to follow the footsteps of our friend RomanGuy, his reviews are interesting with very usefull details.
I like his traveling style; So I expect to visit Chico's Pub, La Paz area and maybe also Somanya. On Google Street View there aren't.
Interesting points to see. I hope to find them. I report whem I am back.[/QUOTE]
