It has come to
my attention that I haven’t really shared my favorite things about Ghana. So here's a few.
1. The mangos. They are triple the size of
American mangos and much sweeter.
2. The friends I’ve made here. With only 5
students we have bonded quickly.
3. The family we are living with. They have
graciously invited us into their home for 4 of the 6 weeks we are here. The mom
is dr. Anderson’s sister. They feed us twice a day and even hand wash our
clothes. (Please read the next post.)
4. Getting to improve the quality of the
people’s health care. I really enjoy screening the people here.
5. The children that light up when you give
them a mint.
6. My cell phone. If you ever travel to
Ghana, Vodafone works everywhere. Even in the most remote villages. Their
internet card also works everywhere. Hints the reason I am able to update this
blog so often.
7. The cheap prices here. One American
dollar equals about 1.7 Ghana Cedis.
8. The awesome views from our home. We are
staying in the mountains about 30 miles outside the capital. It is much safer
and very clean compared to the capital.
9. Milo. It’s a type of hot chocolate the Ghanaians
drink every morning. Its not as sweet as American hot chocolate and its caffeine
free. It’s my coffee substitute while I’m here.
