This is Part 2 of my interview with Akua Sencherey. She talks about reconnecting with her homeland of Ghana as an adult, after growing up in the U.S.. Matt and Akua then discuss their experiences in Accra during the legendary “Detty December”, and give tips for attending. Akua also reflects on her dual citizenship, exploring her identity abroad, and navigating anti-Blackness globally. She then explains how she structures her travel lifestyle and her upcoming plans to “slow-mad” around the Continent of Africa. Akua also discusses her passion and focus on the African tech space. Finally, she shares her top tips for visiting Ghana, reflects on the impact travel has had on her, and explains what travel means to her today.
