These pictures are from me at d Cafe here in Accra. One of my lecturers didnโ€™t show up for one of our classes. So some classmates and I decided to head somewhere to pass time, hangout, catch up, and eat. We came across this cafe another international student recommended to us some time ago. I ordered a beef sandwich with some iced coffee. The food was so good that I even got chicken alfredo to go! The scenery was also beautiful. I love places that have planted and greenery themed designs. I enjoyed my time with my classmates that we usually donโ€™t hang out outside of class.
