I asked Peter how the planning went and how to plan a trip to Ghana.
“The nine of us had a WhatsApp group. It was easy to communicate with everyone. We booked things individually but always at the same time. The accommodation was an Airbnb. The Airbnb was in East Legon, we booked that online."
"Most of Nigeria’s air carriers have direct flights to Accra. You can go by road too. GIGM would be your best bet, they have a good presence in Accra. But we went by air.

"The Airbnb we stayed in was a three-bed flat we shared."
I asked what he did in Ghana “We were mostly at the beach, Laboma Beach Cosa Afronation, soaking up the sun and enjoying the ambience. We went to the mall many times for supplies for the apartment and personal shopping."
"We visited a restaurant called Potbelly Shack, the restaurant is so cool, we ate and had great conversations about life and everything."
