The Big and Little things that makes Accra great

Accra is made up of amazing beautiful varieties of space and places that suites every individual. From the local old lady selling kenke and fried fish with grounded pepper (local dish) in the open with a well folded cloth on top of their head to protect herself from the sun to the fancy continental and Ghanaian restaurant in the big shopping malls with air conditions.

I will through more light to the little small places that are usually the well made local dishes, the best carpenter that works 400m away, the bicycle repairer that has been working in the community for more than 30 years but has no name for his shop. it goes on and on. its a beautiful thing right? Adding the big places and small places makes Accra a happy place for everyone

But anyways the little spaces counts for me as we sometimes forget to add them on the map especially here in Ghana because they are not a big structure, they are not registered under a business name or its being patronized only by the locals. I started adding these places when i realized they are usually not on the map or it takes a longer time for it to be accepted. They make me happy and i love it when i get the notification about it being accepted. it makes me feel really good

When i was growing up in Ghana, it was so difficult to find locations because technology and mobile devices wasn’t accessible to everyone. If an individual or a group of people are looking for a location then they have to keep asking till they find it but one thing was for sure is that you might 90 percent of the time get lost and confused. Ghanaian are very helpful and friendly but showing you location at that time was like getting lost in the woods.

I am extremely happy and thankful for all the google guides across the world making a big change in helping every single community a big and better one
