PROFILE

Greetings and welcome to my blog page

'BACK TO OUR ROOTS.

I am a proud Ghanaian who was blessed with the name Naa Dzamah Pobee, but my friends call me Sister E.

This is a platform dedicated to grass-roots origins inspired by Culture and Traditions, Holistic Well-being, Mother Earth, Soul & Spirituality. We have gained knowledge and wisdom, but if it is not shared, then where is the love -

So 'BACK TO OUR ROOTS' was born.
