She is Janet Yabatonle Adams, better known as Janaya Xtraordinary, a Ghanaian afro pop musician who is a nurse by profession. She is a traveler by birth, gothic and fearless. Her best tool or source of inspiration when she is producing songs is traveling in a moving vehicle and watching movies. She made a promise to herself that once she graduated from nursing school, she would tour all of Ghana as much as she could.
Has she? She did, indeed. With Godfrey Times Travel, Janaya X discusses her journey around Ghana.
You will learn about her favorite beach, a festival that brings together musicians from several nations on one stage, her ancestral home, and a location that depicts the true story of Ghana.
You’ll learn about the cultures she fell in love with, one of Ghana’s cleanest cities, a stunning bridge, and more.
Discover the journey below with Godfrey Times Travel.
It all began in Takoradi, the capital of Ghana’s Western region, which is home to some of the country’s most breathtaking beaches and tourism attractions.
The Busua beach is the one I like best in Takoradi.
It is a spiritual location where you will encounter a wide variety of individuals from many nations who have had wonderful experiences.
Every year in March, they hold this festival.
Asa Baako, which translates to “one dance” in English, is its name.
They connect artists from several nations on one stage through the event.
Busua also features a jungle-covered island. It is a lovely place.
My next journey took me to Cape Coast, the place of my ancestral home in Ghana’s central region.
All the evidence of the activities of the colonial masters is there in Cape Coast, which tells the real tale of Ghana.
The Elmina of the Cape coast castle has information on black history.
It offers stunning beaches, including Oasis Beach and the Coconut Grove Resort.
The Volta Region was the next stop on my tour. To get there, I had to travel via the Eastern region first. The
new Adomi Bridge, which connects Akosombo and Atimpoku, is stunning. It is in Ghana’s Eastern region, where Koforidua, the region’s capital and one of the cleanest cities in the country, is located.
The Volta Region’s stunning cultures captured my heart. They had an excellent festival I experienced. It is called the Asogli Yam Festival. Every September, which is the yam-producing season, there is a celebration for the festival. The intriguing aspect of this event is that before any human being can cook and eat the genuine yam, the first cultivation of the yam is cooked and sprinkled at many shrines. Beautiful tourist attractions abound in the Volta Region, which is a popular travel destination. When I stayed at the Volta Serene Hotel, it seemed like seeing the entire world standing in one spot. I also went to the Holy Trinity Spa’s African Hill Resort. Crazy experience.
My next stop was Ghana’s Ashanti Region. The largest commercial hub in the nation is here. There are many business-minded persons in Kumasi. the people of the courageous woman who fought for the Ashanti Kingdom, Yaa Asantewaa. The Ashantis has stunning cultures and celebrations, and their King Otumfuo Osei Tutu II is dope. I actually live there. Chuckles.
As Ghana’s capital and the place where all dreams come true, I have traveled to the Greater Accra Region. Someone can also find their glorious dreams and aspirations, as a Ghanaian man will say.
I love Africa and am going to travel the world soon.
Janaya X, who was born in Ghana but conceived in Mali, has visited Bono East, Brong Ahafo, Upper West, and Western North, all on business trips. That’s a musical trip.
