Hi,

As an expat living in Ghana, what would you advise the ones about to pack to bring along?

What are the items you can easily find in Ghana? On the other hand, what is less common or quite expensive?

Share with us what you would recommend to bring in ones suitcase or container when moving to Ghana.

Thank you in advance,

Christine

You can probably find everything you need in Ghana but anything imported is always more expensive than in your own country. You don't really need to bring anything except special medications or special foods that wouldn't be readily available.
