It’s been a while and there is a huge plethora of experiences to blog about so lets get started.
JIKO orphanage – This place was awesome! i loved playing frisbee with the orphans, getting to see how they lived, and of course, donating things to them. It was an incredible feeling to help these people that need our help. I would definitely come back here, if I return to Ghana.
Green Turtle/Safari Beach – By far the most pleasant experience thus far has been the quality of The Safari Beach Lodge. After being bummed about not being able to stay at Green Turtle, it was great to find out we had decent lodging as well. I think our group bounced back from the shenanigans well, and I am not going to further about that! Oh yeah, and that beach was Sweet!
Agona Swedru – The homestay experience was arguably my favorite experience up to this point. I love the Barnes Family! Awompa, Ife, Kojo, Efua, and all those other Barnes’ men there for the funeral, you are missed already! Working at the T.I. Amidiyhaa school was a good character building experience, as well as a school building experience ( i crack me up sometimes). I dont want to embellish a lot, because i want to tell these stories at home!
Time’s dying now gotta jet!

Great to hear from everyone. Sounds like the last week was a great one for feeling more like home than a trip “away” from home., what with the football game, frisbee playing and family meals with you homestay families. Stay well and have fun on the safaris.
