🏠Stay in a Ghanaian Home – Cultural Exchange & Local Life 🌍✨


The experience

Akwaaba! (“Welcome” in Twi 😊)
My name is Benjamin, and I live in a safe, friendly neighborhood in Takoradi, Ghana. I have a cosy private room in my family home, and I’m looking forward to hosting travelers and volunteers who want to experience authentic Ghanaian culture.

I’m not running a business or organization — I simply enjoy meeting people from around the world and helping them feel at home.

Program Details

This is a space for cultural exchange, friendship, and sharing daily life with my family.

You’ll have the chance to learn about Ghanaian traditions, share your own culture, and explore the beautiful city of Takoradi. Our home is close to the main road, so transportation is easy to find.


I’m looking for volunteers who can help with light household tasks, such as:

-Cleaning 🧹
-Washing dishes 🍽️
-Simple cooking 🍲
-Language exchange or sharing cultural traditions 🌍💬

We also have a small garden where you’re welcome to relax or help out if you wish. Inside the house, there’s an open floor area with a lovely view of the compound — perfect for enjoying the surroundings and connecting with the family.

This is a relaxed, flexible volunteer opportunity — ideal for travelers who want to immerse themselves in local life without a heavy workload.
