 We all know the city can be suffocating sometimes, even on quiet days. It's still not the most serene for a lot of us Also routine can be very heavy on the mind and make the days drag into each other repetitively. A good time away is always a welcome idea We are taking you to one of our favorite places, which is fortunately just outside the city on the hills of a breeze overlooking lush green valleys Just a brief rest and Reset Why are you laughing so much? Anyway guys welcome to another video We are coming to you live from one of our favorite places, which is the tree house in a brief And my name is Kwame and this is hi, my name is Elaine. Yeah, so we came here for the long weekend We just thought that we'll just come in to here for a little bit Just get out of town and Especially slow down a little bit sound has a certain pace, which is quite intense You have to like very upbeat. Yeah, and I think we needed to be a bit more in the greenery and Just slow down like mentally but also physically like there are no things on New York to do You can just literally be and feel like what's your what you want to do. You want to go for a walk You want to read or just chill. Yeah Yeah, and this is something that I didn't Like before but now I'm getting you know, I'm getting to appreciate this a lot more Yeah, I think the first time we went our first week in the way He was very uncomfortable and didn't really know how to Relax, but I think you've got some better at it Yeah, I'm getting better and like I was saying I'm appreciating it more because when I when I come here it's one of the few places that I actually do feel at home and Also because of the relationship that you know grew from our first time we came here with the host family Who make it actually feel like a family place to be so it's it's an Airbnb. I'll leave the link in the description and We've not been here in a while But six months in about six months. Yeah, and there was an expansion project that we're working on and we came to meet It's completely finished, which is really great It's really cool. I'll show you some of the I mean how the room looks like as I'm talking now and Yeah for this one it just they just They told us that they're using this one for more of a Short stay. Yeah, the concept. Yeah, the concept of you know working remotely and Actually, you know coming to stay here for a month or a longer term than just a long weekend like we're doing So I think that's a really really cool thing and I mean the idea that also for me now as a creative that I can just unplug for a Few weeks a month or whatever it is and just go somewhere that's completely Different and just recess the change of environment the change of scenery And I can only imagine I mean we've now been here for like 24 hours And I feel so much more at ease so I can imagine if you work from here They really get into the rhythm of the days here that after a month. Yeah, I think it's really Rejuvenating yeah, yeah, it'll be really really cool to have that and also like what we're saying I mean the connection that you you actually form with the host here if you want to stay here for a month, for example As an Airbnb No as a long stay not Airbnb as a long stay and you want to you know, you don't want to cook You want to have home cook meals you can actually request for it or speak to the host family and depending on the current Relationship that you have with them. You can have you know, warm meals and warm conversations with them, which which makes it different than the average average place you would yeah, you know normally Go off to go and stay so yeah, and I like that they are doing like they Taylor made it towards what you want. Yeah, so we like to Have it as a leg so we will want to That's the word that you cannot pronounce aggressively. I learned that a hard way Yes, it's a Dutch word for well, there's no literal translation, but it means cozy. Nice nice Warm yeah, so we Yeah, we like to sit around with them a lot and you know spend time with them as well But it depends a little bit on your needs You can also, you know get work done or go for walks like they really leave you free to do Whatever you want to do, but really it's really a welcoming and at home Like as if you're in somebody's living room. They're literally invite you into their living room. Yeah, I think makes it so comfortable Yeah, yeah, so that's what we wanted to share with you. I did a video the first time we came here but not Into so much detail just our experience, but now we've had more than one experience We've been here a couple of times without actually filming like we're doing today So it's it's it feels like you know the cliche Definite cliche home away from home for us now that every now and then we you know, we hit them up and Tell them we want to come home for a little bit and we spend the time here, which yeah And I think like location-wise it's also great because it's about an hour Maybe a little bit more depending on traffic from Accra. It was very doable. You can Drive away in the morning. You'll be here before lunchtime. You settle in and you have still the whole day Yeah And your journey is also nice because you will move from hustling bustling across and then you go into green arrow It's greener. You drive up the hill. Yeah, so you see a crowd literally leaving you behind Yeah, are you leaving a crab behind? Yeah, they come to the food sellers and then you you turn to Untarged road. Yeah, Kitasi the untarged Kitasi road And then you are there like and so it's like even the journey is kind of you're letting go everything That you had in a crime. You're just gonna be here for a few days or long stay if you want Yeah, it will be great. Yeah with it with their new expansion. Yeah So, yeah, that's what we wanted to share with you if you're looking for a place to hide a way to work or even live for a few Months or a month or a few weeks just to play your mind I think this is one of the places you should and often when we say this one of our favorite places It's not because we were here once we Often connect on a deeper level with the people who own these places. So when we share out So, yeah, if you ever think of doing that, I mean, it's even December, I mean if you want to spend Christmas away This is a nice idea to do that. So, yeah We'll cut you in the next video. I know, you know, it's been a long time since we brought a video We'll try and record more, but I hope you enjoy today's home and See you in the next
