Let me introduce you to my homeland Ghana which is found in West Africa.

It is a made up of different people who speak over 100 different languages with rich and endowed culture.

Ghana is the only country in West Africa with a canopy walkway found in the Central region at a beautiful tourist site known as the Kakum national park. Just to mention a few tourist and recreational sites; Paga crocodile pond, Wli and Kintampo waterfalls, Afajato and Kwahu mountains among others.

I can't talk about Ghana without talking about our beautiful traditional dance steps which include Agbadza and Boboobo by the Ewes from the Volta Region, Adowa and Kete by the Ashanti's and Akyims from Ashanti and some part of the Eastern region, Kpanlogo by the Gas' along the coast in Accra and many more. All these traditional dances come with a unique style of dressing.

Some healthy locally Ghanaian made dishes include Tuo-Zaafi with ayoyo by the Northerners, Ga Kenkey with hot pepper and fish by Ga's in Accra, Fufu which is mostly eaten with soup mostly by the Ashanti people and Akple with either pepper or soup by the Ewes and many more.

Make time and explore Ghana and discover for your self our Tropical green forest where we get rubber plants situated in the West and timber for construction and electric poles also from the West and some part of the newly demarcated Oti Region.

People who reside in the remote areas are mostly farmers and due to the nature of soils in these areas, different types of crops are cultivated at different locations across the country. just to mention few cash crops cultivated in Ghana are; Cocoa, Coffee, and |Cashew. Others include green vegetables, cassava, maize and fruits such as Mango which is mostly in the Eastern Region and some part of Volta.
