Tommy, I love your videos man. I'm a bit awestruck by your confidence to just go into these sorts of celebrations, but a bit nervous for you as well. You always somehow make your way through them, like the Jamaican burial, and the hashish village. Not gonna lie man, I'm a huge fan.

You really did well going there. If anyone wanted to visit Ghana do so. You will never forget your experience.

I'm a GA but living now in Germany and watching your video right now gave me lot of goosebumps Kudus !
