Ghana's Coastal Treasure: Inside a rustic fishing village in Cape Coast Ghana
Spending some time with my family in Cape Coast Ghana, I came across an amazing fishing village through the windows called Ekon so I decided to check it out. So in this video, I take you with me to explore this rustic fishing village where I speak to some of the locals to find out how it feels to grow up and live in this amazing community. I hope you enjoy it....My name is Mickey...Keep Watching!!!
Every country has a story; so does its people. I get to travel and visit different parts of the world due to the nature of my work, so I take viewers with me in the form of vlogs to explore and tell beautiful stories of the people and the places that I am working.
I am dedicated to provide deep, meaningful and entertaining contents for you, my viewers....
It's a lovely Saturday morning in Cape Coast so this is where I am but I'm looking
At that village over there that village and it looks like it will be a place to go
Really nice I'm not sure how accessible the place is going to be but you know I'm going to try it out
So in this video come with me while I try to see what this village is about
and maybe go to the market I might get lost I don't know Oh look the market
My name is Mickey Keep watching and I want to show you my view Since I've been here I've bee
Talking about that house I'm so jealous they get to wake up every morning and see such a view
It is on a hill and the land here is 150 000 Ghanaian cedis I'll convert it to dollars
Let's go on an adventure we've got one of the hotel staff who is going to show me
where to go
Very nice neighborhood atm it's still building up One thing I like about this place is driving
up here the road has been done really well and I don't know who paid for it but normally
When you go into a new place the road is really rugged but
here it's straight down it's really you can see behind me
I like this view over here
we're going through here
It's very noisy you can hear you can hear all the activities going on down
there oh okay there's a funeral going on so there's a funeral procession
oh okay
Oh look at the view imagine living here and then coming here all the time Oh okay so
that's a church over there they will have a view Yeah coming to church just to enjoy the
Oh look so there's a procession going on there so the land they are still land for sale over here
And um the lady who is leading us said if you want some you can come to the village and they will
take you to the authorities and the elders and they will handle the process and allocate it to you
Oh yeah I mentioned that 150 000 Ghana cities or probably more because one thing I've realized
It's whenever I ask for the price of land someone will mention
something but when you go to the site it's a different story so yeah
ow are you
This is a school for the community I guess
The village is called Ariado or Sandy Area or located on top of sand

The main purpose of this project is to create a comprehensive database of all known information about the company's products and services
The new system which is being developed by the company will be implemented in the next quarter
The main issue is that the system is not functioning properly causing errors in the data processing and transmission
When you put it and this
oo
and away they go trying to find money to take care of themselves and their family
And in a world where kids are mostly glued to their tablets and video games for entertainme
Nature's most precious gift to children are the
golden ones They know how to behave safely in the water
I must go up
Now we have to climb up
Look at the view behind me
Climbing from the village up here is a major cardiovascular workout
I was talking to one of the women who lives up here and she mentioned that it's a daily routine
She has children here who go to school in a village and she will first have to take them to school and then walk up
And then she will go down to sell and come back up
She was struggling She's been doing it for ages but even she was struggling
But one thing she said that was nice is that the church premises here are very airy and very fresh
So they normally come here and then bring their beds over here and just hang around like
they bring their mats and sleep over here And when you get there the air is very fresh
So that's the good thing about it But she also acknowledged that it's also a daily exercise
It's good for your heart
That's the front of the beautiful house I was talking about It's actually down below
So it's a basement and it's got so looking from the front it is one story
But behind it looks like a bungalow Very beautiful
It was so nice interacting with the people of Anryaso
And the area they mentioned is called Ekon So that's the name of a neighborhood
And they are very friendly That's one thing
And they are also hardworking people
And looking at how the kids are you know in the sea having fun They
didn't have to pay for it though
It's just for them Yeah life is good
So yeah I hope this video took you to a place you've
never seen before Or a place that's unfamiliar to you
