Before you ask, the snap of the antique phone was actually our quirky home phone growing up (No, it&#8217;s not a Ghanaian thing at all)!! <em>I remember all the gossip I spilled on that phone with my best friend! including one awkward moment when I spoke about my crush and my little brother happened to be listening in and told everyone haha! Silly memories!<\/em> Also, remember my <a href=\"https:\/\/armenyl.com\/2016\/10\/21\/parisiandoors\/\" target=\"_blank\">doors project in Paris<\/a>?! Well, I decided to extend the project to Ghana and started taking pictures of doors and windows in Ghana as well \u2014 I&#8217;ve been so fascinated by the comparisons!<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like
