Kwanwari

After the hospital visit we struggled through over an hour of traffic with hungry stomachs to visit friends in the outskirts of Kumasi. They had invited us to make the traditional Ghanian dish called Fufu. After a quick introduction to the Fufu preparation process, they allowed us to try and make it ourselves with a small ‘trial’ portion. After miserably failing, it became clear that they weren’t expecting much else and we were kindly served the portions they had already prepared for us. While for some of us it was easier to eat up, others struggled more, but we all went strong as we wanted to show our appreciation to the family and for the traditional local food.
After dinner, the girls were very interested in the texture of our ‘weird’ hair und the exploration from their side felt like a good head massage on our side. When talking about school, they proudly presented their report cards and drawings and left us really impressed - what a great and kind hearted family ♥️
