I was born in 1987 in the Northern part of Ghana, west Africa, a country which is known to be the gate way to Africa, with a rich cultural heritage and rich ornaments such as Gold, Diamond, Timber, just to name a few.

I never took for granted the simple, joyful and fun-filled life in Sisila (Northern Region, Ghana), Back in Ghana
