Today, I was the lucky chosen Tweep to share my day with BloggingGhana’s 14100 followers on Twitter. I enjoyed it, and think you, my dear blog reader, might also enjoy my story. To read chronologically, start from the bottom of this post!
This illustration from a storybook is very close to our bedtime routine. #ADayWithAWoman /KHA pic.twitter.com/Uuks0ZsD5a

Thanks @negusnegasti I used trotros and taxis my first year in Ghana (then I got a drivers’ license &a car)…1/2 #ADayWithAWoman /KHA
@BloggingGhana did you ever use ‘trotro’ while you were in Ghana? If yes, how was the experience and if no, why not? 🙂
Now dinner! It’s fish on the menu, which I love. Lucky, as I married a Fante! #ADayWithAWoman /KHA
“@wunpinifm: @BloggingGhana Absolutely. Parents can help too. Buy them as many books as you buy them toys. That’s a start.” <<Agreed! /KHA
The blogpost on breast feeding got so many comments, I made another blogpost of them! http://kajsaha.wordpress.com/tag/baby/ #ADayWithAWoman /KHA
Breast feeding is a big part of my day. I have blogged about the experience (both Gh&Swe) https://kajsaha.com/2012/01/breastfeeding-in-ghana-statistics-misconceptions-and-formula/ …#ADayWithAWoman /KHA
What do you think?@wunpinifm #ADayWithAWoman /KHA
“@wunpinifm: You seem like a voracious reader. What, in your opinion,can be done to get Ghanaian kids to love reading?”<<1 word: libraries.
I could write a book on this! I think I have to write a blogpost to even scratch the surface…Good q, @wunpinifm! #ADayWithAWoman/KHA
@BloggingGhana How different are your experiences as a woman in Ghana from your experiences as a woman in Sweden?
We are good with publicity online. Email us details about your campaign and we’ll see how to help @kansilainfo@BloggingGhana.org /KHA
@BloggingGhana @kansila @kajsaha We need to pay more attention to libraries all over Ghana. It’s like we’ve forgotten all about them.
Hi @Saygyka It does make sense. Write a brief proposal to info@bloggingghana.org and we’ll take it from there! Cc @DeeDomfeh
Ohhh , tell us more! Maybe we can be of help! @kansila @kajsaha#ADayWithAWoman /KHA
“@wunpinifm: @Kuukuwa_ @BloggingGhana Oh how’d I miss this? :(”<< You missed her, but not me! Tweeting #ADayWithAWoman a few more hrs /KHA

@BloggingGhana what hav u been doin in ghana 4 da past 7yrs?
Someone said: “Ghanaians are the most hospitable in the world in their homes, but at work, not so much” @KwameAnim#ADayWithAWoman /KHA
Thanks @KwameAnim – I do feel at home (smell of nkatenkwan, a cold Star, gospel sung by a neighbor), but it took time. #ADayWithAWoman /KHA
“@KwameAnim: @BloggingGhana Do you feel at Home? How would you explain the popular mantra “Ghanians are Hospitable”.”
Having lived 7 years in Ghana as a Swedish woman, do you have any questions for me? I’ll attempt to answer all! #ADayWithAWoman/KHA
@BaffourA_K Yep, Afrostyle rocks! /KHA
Our family friend just had her bday, we gave her a Gh WaxPrint cloth. This is the one she chose! #ADayWithAWoman /KHA pic.twitter.com/Jl73rPrEv5

At 750 DKK/USD 128 a single entry Visa to Ghana does not come cheap. This FBgroup wants a change http://m.facebook.com/visafreeghana?refsrc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.se%2F&_rdr … #ADayWithAWoman /KHA
Visa picked up. Baby got 30 days in Ghana, then she needs a renewal as Gh passports in are not secured in a jiffy/KHA pic.twitter.com/JjEfMHhB36
I’m continuing to town to run some errands like picking up the Ghana visa for baby & going to the library. Stay tuned! #ADayWithAWoman/KHA
It’s about 10 degrees Celcius in #Sweden, and the school kids spend most of the day outdoors! #ADayWithAWoman /KHA pic.twitter.com/eQY8vmESl3
