About Us

Kevin and Anna Acheampong are both of Dutch / Ghanaian descent, they have been together for over 10 years and welcomed their first child Sophie-Jane in 2012. They have only known Amsterdam/ the Netherlands as their homeland but both visited Ghana on many occasions when they were younger. When Micah was born in 2016 Anna had complications and there was a lot of stress on the family unit. After they finished building their family home in 2019 they needed a break from fast track European life and decided to live in their fatherland Ghana for a year. Then covid -19 hit, they got stuck and now feel this is where they need to be, to educate not only themselves but the world (through YouTube videos) about how fulfilled life can be in the motherland.
