We weren’t joking when we said we needed help to get to the World Cup and back. Thankfully, we’ve had a bit of help along the way.

Want to help us out? We’re in need of everything from cameras to equipment to accommodation to a decent lunch! If you can help us out or know a business that might want to get involved with us – let us know at support@amateursinafrica.com and we’ll be happy to get in touch and add to our list.

AWET Hotel - In the heart of Accra, where the cool kids hang out Ozu, you’ll find a pretty sweet hotel. The guys at AWET were the first organisation to support us on the road and they offered us a free room for our entire stay – how could we refuse and it proved it’s no problem to find luxury in Ghana. After 6 weeks of sleeping here, there and everywhere, AWET was basically a West African oasis.

It might be hard to believe but we’ve never stayed in classy hotels so this was a first for us and in this part of the world if you find a place with air conditioning, cable TV, a refrigerator and wi-fi what more could you want? Mass breakfasts are of course included and as for the staff, well, they were incredible.
