Cultural Differences
The free market economy consists of street stalls, small cabin style shops and street traders. Lapaz is located on the North of Accra & sits on the East West highway across the south of Ghana. What you can see here is the equivalent of Accra's M25!! A single lane road with a market at most junctions. Currency here is different, it cost's me about 8900 a litre of petrol. About $1 US. The largest cash note if 20,000 cedi, about a $2.5 note. So if I put 300,000 cedi in the Car, the amount of money that needs counting is incredible
$30 (approx 300,000) looks like this below and cash is the exchange, not credit cards. So to carry more around, I need my trouser back pockets enlarged!!!
