When it comes to living life as a tall person in Ghana, there are some things many of us need to be aware of and manage from day to day.

Tip#1 – Walk with confidence no matter where you go! Everyone is staring at you anyway, so you might as well give them something to stare at!

Tip #2 – Watch out for those ceiling fans! They are out to get you in small spaces with low ceilings. The last thing you need it a trip to the emergency from a fan accident.

Tip #3 – Be careful getting in and out of public transport (trotro). Your knees will never forgive you. If you can, take the front seat only to avoid that serious discomfort.
