My biggest challenge in Sierra Leone was finding suitable bathrooms. A good business for public toilets would be an excellent addition for getting around town and the motorway - like restops with clean bathrooms.

I’m a Ghanaian from London but I have a Sierra Leonean friend from church. She speaks Krio. I learnt our foods are similar since we have peanut soup, jollof etc. We hardly talk about our cultures. I think even though we’re African but have different cultural backgrounds. Maybe she may not relate so there’s not so much connection. So I thought to watch this to learn about your people and culture. I want to also try Sierra Leonean food but how can I have this discussion with her?
@AuthenticAfrican
@AuthenticAfrican 2 года назад
Yes the foods can be similar (especially peanut soup). I have these types of conversations here in Ghana all of the time. I see something that looks familiar and mention that we do the same. If there is something that I see different I mention that as well. You both should try each other's foods more often. I would also recommend talking about dating, career opportunities, development in the country etc. There is much in common but there are some major differences too.

I actually spend more money in Salone in a day than the U S. In the U S. if I have gas in my car and food in the house I can go for days without speeding. Salone is expensive in my own opinion .

How do you navigate eating out as a vegan? I am vegan as well.I am partly Senegalese and Sierra Leonean living in the U.S and intend to visit this December.
@AuthenticAfrican
@AuthenticAfrican Год назад
Appetizers and sides. Fries, Potatoes, veggie spring rolls, Pita Bread and Hummus. There is not much else you can really eat out. However, I have a housekeeper who cooks vegan friendly West African dishes.

"I dae cam" can even mean an hour or 2 sometimes.🤦🏽‍♂️😳 Best way to navigate that is to keep yourself occupied or run your own errands in Freetown/SL or your local district whilst waiting for the person to come.👌🏽
