I CANNOT LIVE IN THIS AFRICAN COUNTRY!
Out of all 54 countries in Africa, I have only spent time in Ghana. Aside from the cost of travelling around Africa which can be quite high and. Pretty much equivalent to travelling to Europe or other continents, I have just had no interest in the past to see other African countries partly due to lack of knowledge on what these countries actually looked like. In recent times Africa has been shared in all its glory especially through the internet. I am finally on a journey to explore my first African country outside of Ghana. Come with me.

My name is Jasmine and I have relocated from Sydney Australia to Ghana in west Africa as of the year 2020.
My parents are of Ghanaian descent and so am I although I was born in Australia. Here on my channel, my goal is to give you a real glimpse into what it’s like to live in Ghana, from the Ghanaian food, to the Ghanaian culture, to the Ghanaian lifestyle and everything in between. My goal is to satisfy your curiosity about Ghana and help inspire to explore Ghana.
My prayer is that these videos do just that for several African’s in the diaspora.
Follow your bliss because life is short, follow your bliss because human life has no intrinsic value, follow your bliss because everything happens for the greater good and follow your bliss because it has all happened before.
Watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲
Hello my fellow Ghanaian 🇬🇭 👋🏼
Hello Kayden ❤️
In my opinion, for a first timer in Lomé, you're staying too far away from the city center. Those areas (where you're staying at) used to be small villages that became part of the city not too long ago (2014). Personally, I think it is very inconvenient. There's nothing there to see. I would have preferred locations such as Nyekonakpoé( not far from aflao border), Dekon, Soted, ablogamé, baguida, avepozo... Somewhere closer to the beach and city center where pretty much everything happens in Lomé.
As a person who grew up in the outskirts of Lomé, i cannot agree more. I think Adidogomé is too far from the city center and that wouldn't allow you to see much
I will be sharing other parts of Togo xx
Jaz dont foget to mention that Ewe/Volta Region of Ghana used to be a part of Togo. The language and the people are the same except for the French. A lot of Ewe have relatives in Togo and live interchangeably and vice versa.
I’ve lived in both countries and I can tell you exactly the difference between. If you looking for somewhere calm with peace of mind and security Togo is the best.
Ghana is developed country but depend what you want, Ghana has a lot of pressure with a lot of trafics everywhere and life is very expensive.
You can survive in togo with a little money and also they don’t increase things prices everyday like in Ghana. So visiting both countries is worth it.
Prices don't increase everyday in Togo because it's a duty free country unlike Ghana that has import duty and relies on the dollar rate. So when dollar rates goes up prices go up. This is why prices are changed all the time in Ghana because everything is based on the dollar rate.
Togo still remain the Best just that ghana has alot of activities than Ghana
@@israelkalu25 can you read over what you write please .
Hi Ama. I don’t know which side of Lomé you are exploring, but the places I have been to have been nothing but top notch. You should probably link up with some middle class professionals and upper class friends, so they can show you the other side. You won’t be disappointed🤣. I do agree that Ghana is much more developed, but we are getting there.
As a American I love your channel! keep doing your thing sis!
Thanks very much xx
I just came across your channel about 3hours ago and I've been watching your videos...
I must say i really love them and you're doing a great job❤🎉
Aw thanks 💕
There’s beauty in the people and the land. Thanks for showing us a bit of Togo. It may be undeveloped but the veggies and fruit look sooooo good! The Creator kiss the land. I wish our natural elements was as luxurious!!!
Going to subscribe to Christelle’s channel.
Definitely so beautiful in its own way… so lovely of u to check out Christelle’s channel 💕
Jasmine, this is so much better than sitting at some cubicle in Australia. You’re truly living the best
1000%
To be fair...
I think to really enjoy Togo and explore the in and out, the hidden gems, and the must sees, your tour guide needs to be A Togolese. No disrespect to Christelle❤ whatsoever, and I'm a fan of her channel, but she is still exploring Togo through her 3 years living there. She can only show you what she is used to or know. Trust me, a lot happens in Togo 🇹🇬 that even some Togolese are not aware of 😊 and that's a fact.
Anyways, thank you for visiting, and I hope your stay was memorable.
❤ 🇬🇭❤ 🇹🇬 one family
You spoken my mind!! She need a Togolese tourist to show her more of hidden beauty of Togo🇹🇬😍
Hi Jasmine, welcome to Togo! Well done 😊❤🎉🇬🇭🇹🇬🙏🏾
Thank u ❤️
Considering the dollar rate to the cedi in Ghana, Togo is quite expensive in my opinion
Trust me... when it comes to food, it's cheaper in Togo than Ghana. I have families that come to Togo to stock up and even sell back in Ghana.
Aw Jasmine, I'm loving this. One of my great-uncles studied in Liberia in the late forties which was rare for Haitians to go that far at the time and recounted to my family a few stories about Liberia, Ghana, Benin and Togo. I'm not sure why but Togo had a lasting impact on him apparently.
Thank you so much for showing us Africa, I don't take those videos for granted at all as I know that it requires time, and money to travel but what a treat for us viewers. I laughed a bit at the man checking the cutlery and every single item in that apartment, that makes me wonder if they are just peculiar or have issues with theft in the area. I can't wait for more🤗
❤️
Beautiful people and beaches. As an African American I would love to visit this place and chill on the beach with my fish and Acheke.
U would actually really enjoy that xx
Born in Accra ( Ghana).grow up in Lome before coming to the US 🇺🇸🇺🇸was in vacation last year with my wife and son landed in Accra before coming to Lome ( Togo) they didn't Accra Ghana this was their first visit to Africa They prefer Lome very quiet
Yes Lome is much quieter x
Have my house 🏠 by the beach close to Aflao Border and they like the easy walk to the beach Lome is not big like Accra that's what they enjoy
I agree. Have family in Ghana and Togo
Living in the US now, but everytime we go visit Ghana and Togo, my kids prefer Togo.
Please Jasmine, don't judge a country base on one side of the town you are living at. And besides, Togo is not just Lomé. ..
There are beautiful people and cities across the whole country.
Hello like your videos. But i have a little problem with the video! I'm not even from Togo, but we all Africans, we need to uplift each other. You don't go to one country and comparing them in the video. You can do that when you get back home, or off camera. The media have done that to us for so many centuries. It's time for us to uplift each other, to support each other because we're all the same people ! It was no border before colonisation.
Thank you so much 🙏🏽
I agree with you.
No, some of us need that comparison info. Good to know the good and bad before spending .
love the lady in blue smile---you too JAS and thanks for the video
🥰
Welcome to Lomé Jasmine. As a person who grew up in the outskirts of Lomé, I think Adidogomé is too far from the city center and that wouldn't allow you to see what the capital city has to offer. Sorry your stay wasn't up to your standards. Hope you get to come back to Lomé and stay in where the action actually is and also get to go to Kpalimé, Atakpamé, Aného and many other places that show the beauty of Togo 🇹🇬😊.
I will share other parts of Togo 💕
It was nice to see Togo through your eyes. Underneath the dusty roads and underdevelopment is a lot of love and kindness from the people that is hard to understand. Vivi Africa!
🥰
This video bought back fond memories of my visit to Togo. I really enjoyed it I stayed near the border of Ghana and Togo and the bonus is that I can understand and speak French. I did not go through all that “red tape” procedure at my accommodations. I stayed in a villa that could house 5 plus people with a huge courtyard and the owner had a drinks business in which he shared his drinks with us.
Ohh sounds so lovely
@@JasmineAmaa it was very lovely, however I did find it more expensive than Ghana, looking forward to seeing you overall experience. 😊
Hello my sister thank you very much for putting my hometown on the map. Good job sister.
❤️
Thank you for all this great content!
What I like about you, honestly speaking, is your voice; so soft and calm. Keep being natural!
Beautiful video, Jasmine! The veggies and fruits looked so fresh!
Thank you for putting Togo on the map !! And thank you @christelle for showing her around 🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬
You should show her around 😊 BTW Siesie.. if you're still in Lomé... or at least link up. Well, if she hasn't left yet, of course. ❤ I'm sure you know who I am 🤭
@@emlachictogolaiz hello big sis !!! Il not sure if she’s still there or not but I’ll ask Christelle to see . Thank you sis
@EPHRASIE A 🥰🤗 I knew you'll figure me out in no time, lol... oh, wonderful... that's great to know. I hope you are doing well and pops too ❤️
The apartment is really cool,but the entrance looks scary at 1st glance...
🤣🤣 what about the entrance makes it scary??
@@JasmineAmaa well,maybe scary is not the right word..but it looked unlike a place open to public..
@@TheWt6012
Yes your right that was also my thought. 😊
@@TheWt6012 looked incomplete but that's not uncommon in Ghana either. 😅
@@a.konadu4010 😃
And thanks for introducing us to Christelle, here enjoying your informative channel Ama.
I am glad to see you with Christell because I also watch her channel.
Awww, Love you soo much Jasmine. Your soo humble.❤
Wow, that was a quick bus ride from Accra. I’m an AA currently visiting Winneba but now I’m thinking of taking that bus ride. Thanks for the video.
Anytime x
Love these vids Jasmine please travel more!!
You should visit Abidjan the Ivory Coast next.
Great to see you visit Togo, Jasmine. Lovely to meet Christelle. A unique beauty! I hope you enjoyed your five days.🥰
I love how your so down to earth Jasmine, seems very easy to get along with.
❤️❤️
Haha I missed Ghana when the passengers started telling the driver to drive the car because of the heat in the car.
🤣
Nice seeing you visiting Lome I know you had to go to that supermarket Champion they are quite expensive I love my Lome because of the quietness for some one like me who have to deal with the hustle and bustle of New York City
I love the hotel living and dining area,it's cool though. It looks chill and thanks for sharing sweetheart ❤ can't wait for the rest of the vlogs
So glad u enjoyed this one.. more to come ❤️❤️
Hello Jasmine,
This fruit is called carambole in french or star fruit in english.
Enjoy your stay in Togo!
Ohh thanks x
hi Jasmine love the video as usual look forward to the rest of them Ashley Australia
Thanks for sharing your experiences in Togo 🇹🇬. Very educational 😅
This is so beautiful. Please please let me know if or when you’re in Nigeria, I’d really love to show you around 🥰
Will do xx
I enjoy watching these videos to see what Africa is really like ❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️
Love this vid exploring africa ,togolese may not have a lot but the look really happy & the food looks really inviting
I recognize the strange fruit it's called 5 fingers in the Caribbean also called star fruit 😅
Togo is a beautiful country, but still has a long way to go. A change in leadership and new ideas would help the country tremendously.
Those Bum African Leaders are killing our Continent and its potential, We must deal with them 😈😈😈
Thank you so much beautiful sister, I wish I could travel with you
I m currently living in togo, next time when you stop by to lome , let me know , IL will be your guide.
Aww welcome to my beautiful country I hope you enjoy yourself ☺️
Thanks so much xx
Another great video ❤❤❤❤😊
Thanks Patrick ❤️
Aww if you’re ever in Nigeria. You know what to do 🥰 ❤
Omo ìyá mi
Of cause niger no they carry last 🇳🇬
Am waiting for u at koforidua like all your video 🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕
Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏿
THAT WAS A GREAT TOUR OF TOGO SO FAR. 🇹🇬
Thanks Benny x
Love how honest you are Jasmine 😊 This is why I keep coming back to watch your channel. Keep on keeping it real. Looking forward to watching more videos from Togo and hope you decide to travel to more African countries , will be here, on my couch joining you on the ride. ❤
❤️❤️
If it's a weekend, that bus could probably be the 2nd or 3rd. STC is a big deal if it comes to traveling to Ho or Aflao
I have been to Togo. Lovely and calm people. Stayed at hotel de Napoleon. Loved it. Will go back. The lovely guide and her baby are beautiful. Yeah following my dream ❤
Good job sister Africa people need go to visit . AFRICA TO VISIT Africa 👍👍👍🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷
jasmine, I am here and you have earned one subscriber from Canada. can you talk about hotels in lome or where to sleep. thanks
Your first video outside of GH is brilliant. Togo however I hope you will discover later can be exciting with some fine hotels like 2 fevrier and sarakawah. Anyway do enjoy your stay in Lomé.
Thanks William 💕
Beautiful I love Togo 🇹🇬 ik Adebayor from there one of the greatest African footballer. Much love from Ghana 🇬🇭
I love that young ladies hair, those mango looks like Julie Mango and the other fruit we called it starfruit in Jamaica.
Baby Girl Jas 😂😂😂. Your host Crystal has a beautiful personality. Jas driving a Porsche or the Tricycle which do you think is more of a challenge 😅😅😅. Great video waiting to see the next 4 days. Big up Togo. Oh by the way that "funny fruit" 😊we have it in Jamaica both the sweet & sour one we call it Starfruit some say Jimbeline big debate leave it there.
🤣🤣 look I think the porsche was, no police stops with the tricycle… Christelle is so lovely..
That airbnb was the best one i have ever seen. What area was it located in? Prayerfully our home will be finished by the time we go back next year. If not that seems like it would be nice to stay in. Did it have a water heater to take a hot shower as well?
Hi Ama u can bring the Mango seed to Ghana n plant 🌱 it
Hi I have been to Togo and you are right but your title is something else
I have been to Togo and I enjoyed Togo.
To be fair I only got to see my hotel and my hotel room other than seeing a few parts of town closest to the airport.
Yeah i can understand that
Hi Ama, next time try to stay in Lomé so you will have a chance to visit the big market there called Assigame, which is like Mokola market.
Watch my most recent video 💕
Thanks for this one
Jasmine can you tell me where the hair store is?. My friend wants to go there and buy some
Ama, the other time you suggested me to taste each of your dishes 😄😄 today, as you are also in my country, so I wish you too...
I definitely will xx
@@JasmineAmaa ok Ama
Welcome to my country jasmine.
Ama...my home is just across the sea when you cross the border...near the German castle
My second home most of my fiancé's family lives there and is where he grew up. Ghana and Benin after where a handful of family lives.
Nice One sister Ama ✊💪👍👏💖😍🏆❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
💕
You made me miss home. Oh lol I’ll be back in July. I would like to see you my sister.
Aw xx
I think it's the neighborhood you went to. I have not been to Togo, but I have seen some nice areas here on CZcams.
Id be exploring other parts xx
Jasmine the strange fruit that you brought in the market in Barbados it's called Star Fruits or Five Finger 💞💞 🇧🇧
💕
You will like more lome.also Opera fast food is not to far to where you stay you can eat there, they have breakfast, lunch , diner menu better, then where you friend just take you. Even more clean and classic....take care jasmine...
next on my list
The ‘strange’ fruit we call it 5 finger/star fruit here in Trinidad. I’m not big on it, by itself, but good in a chow w|other fruits w|spices, sugar & hot pepper.
Ohh with hot pepper?! Interesting
Star fruit is also in Ghana by the way. My grandmother used to sell them
Ohh cool. Never seen them prior to in Togo x
Jasmine! It's only your FIRST DAY. Wait and see what Togo has to offer! Yeah!
Definitely xx
Thanks for visiting my country ❤❤❤
❤️
Awww we love it 😊❤️
❤️
I always wish I will meet wode Maya or jasmine whenever I go to town. ❤😂
Aw
The strange looking fruit is called star fruit. I love it very much due to its vitamin C content but the taste is not for everyone.
It's Salo mango. It used to be common but not anymore except for homes that have that type.
Ohh never seen them here x
Woooow amazing ❤🇹🇿🇹🇿
Aww please visit Liberia, you will love it
Hey Queen Jasmine
Hello x
Nice content. But you lodged in a place too far from the real Togo. Legbassito is closed to Ghana border. Next time try to stay and visit Beach neighborhood and new towns in Lome.
I visited various parts. Will share those videos soon xx
The place where you stayed with christelle is the outskirts zone of LOMÉ (Sogbossito, Legbassito...) if you want to see the vibrant places in lomé, you need to visit places like Baguida, Tokoin, Adidogomè douane, djidjolé, Avédji Limousine, Agbalepedo...
I am a Togolese
You are right, I did explore some of these areas too. More videos on those places coming soon x
Ohhh Jasmine!!!Be kind to Togooo!!!🤓😃😎
😅
Togo is beautiful. Looking great sis. Togo looks similar to Ghana
First ❤🎉
Heyy ❤️
i personally will love to stay in Togo than Ghana b,cos it,s a bit quite compare to us over here in Ghana and a bit cheaper too the only problem for is the language barrier, i was there once and it was cool, nice video
Nice video Jasmine!! Lol what exactly does baby girl lifestyle mean?. I'm old so I don't know all the slangs.
It means living comfortably 😅
@@JasmineAmaa lol oh ok cool. Thanks for the explanation. Keep living the baby girl lifestyle. You work hard!!! May GOD bless you with much more success.
Come to visite us soon in Ivory Coast. ❤
Definitely 💕
@@JasmineAmaayou are always welcome. AKWABA.❤️
Thank you for showing us Togo, but I will live in Ghana first!❤
❤️
The area you visited is not really a Lomé city center. It used to be villages that are being built into near areas in the past 5 to 10 years. Just like Kasua used to be in Ghana 10 years ago. You should go to better places like
