    Akuapem is inthe eastern part of Ghana. The sun there shines all the time. The local peopleare very friendly and hospitable(好客的). Now let's have a look at how Akuapem people receive a visitor.

   Avisitor is often welcomed warmly in a family of Akuapem. After the visitor iswelcomed into the house, he is offered a seat and water at the very beginning,because the hostassumes thatthe visitor must have come from a very long journey and need water. If there isa group of visitors, the host will greet the visitors from right to left. Andthe host shakes only with his right hand, because Akuapem people think the lefthand is not clean.

   Next, the visitor is asked how his journeywas and why he has come. While the conversation is going on, the wife and thechildren, especially girls, are preparing food for the visitor. The visitor canchoose his favorite food. After the visitor finishes eating, the host and thevisitor go on with their conversation. Usually this is short one because thevisitor is getting ready to say goodbye.

   Whenthe visitor is leaving, he is often given some food. He is also accompanied(陪伴) by one of thechildren to the nearest station. The child who accompanies the visitor will notcome back home until the visitor leaves safely.

   Whetherhe is a close friend or just a stranger, this is always how friendly Akuapempeople receive a visitor.
