Why Mountain View Journey
Sometimes a journey changes more than your perspective, it changes your sense of purpose.
In October 2023, after years of pandemic delays and anticipation, our founder finally arrived in Accra, Ghana and experienced a profound sense of connection and belonging from the warm welcome. The beauty of Aburi, meeting traditional leaders in Kyebi and confronting the difficult history of Cape Coast, Ghana; all invited her to see Africa and herself through a different lens.
The experience sparked difficult questions about history, colonization, identity, and the stories that have shaped how Africa and Black identity are understood. But rather than allowing the pain of the past to become bitterness, she chose another response: learn, heal, reconnect, and act.
That decision became Mountain View Journey (MVJ). MVJ was founded on a simple belief that members of the African Diaspora re-engagement with Africa creates dual healing and development. Today, MVJ creates tours for people to experience Ghana, reconnect with ancestral history and culture, and participate in meaningful community and economic development. Ghana is known as the “Gateway to Africa.”
We journey to Ghana not simply to see where history happened, but to understand what was there before, what remains today, and what we can help build for tomorrow.
