Well well.. here I am, sitting in an internet cafe in Sunyani, Ghana and trying to think of how to explain the last week.. its been fun, a bit overwhelming, tiring, beautiful, and exciting... Ghana so far has been full of colour and friendly people. I spent the first 2 days in Accra, the capital city. Meeting people from CIKOD, the organization I will be working with, as well as the current interns who are about to head home. We had a very short orientation of both the organization and the city (including eating Fufo from the guesthouse (which turns into a disco at night) where I stayed. Fufo is a dough-like ball that you eat with different types of soup. You eat it with your right hand and I was really messy. :) I am sure I will have lots of time to improve.

Rachel and I then traveled by bus to Sunyani, which is 4 hours or so from Accra (but of course it took 7 hours in the bus).

must finsh this later!!! Write more later
