Wanderlust Ghana is a group of philanthropists and tourism enthusiasts. They started the expedition of driving from one continent to the other from Accra on Sunday [July 23, 2023] through Aburi, Nsawam, Kumasi, Sunyani to Dormaa and then entered Cote d’Ivoire via Gonokrom.
They were 12 people when they started the journey but one person dropped off in Senegal because of work-related reasons and two others also dropped off in Morocco.
By Friday [August 4, 2023], they were on the outskirts of Monaco in Europe and were about to enter France, having moved through five African countries, Cote d’Ivoire, Mali, Senegal, Mauritania and Morocco and entered Europe by ferry on the Mediterranean to Algeciras in Spain, before driving to Barcelona via Valencia. They spent three days in the country in Morocco.
