This is what I get to wake up to EVERYDAY!
Halloween Night at a local spot

My friend Michael and I on our way to the Ambassador's house for a reception. He's going to be my nearest neighbor for the next 2 years in the Upper West!


We created a wood fire stove out of mud. We got muddy and dirty for this, it was great!
Just a random picture of some of the domestic wildlife in Ghana. Goats, Chickens, and Cows just roam around everyone's houses. The chickens and goats love to stand in front of my window and make noises at 4 AM every morning, which wake me up. Some of the volunteers that have been here for a yr. reassure me that you get used to the sounds and after a yr. it won't even wake you. I'm waiting very patiently for that day.
Our Trainers took us out for a day of fun. We went to these waterfalls that were so breathtaking. There are signs posted everywhere that say, "You have been warned not to swim, stay alive," we of course didn't listen and jumped right in! It was so fun and the water was so refreshing and cold. The trainers practically had to drag us out! We went hiking afterwards up to the top of the mountain. It was an arduous hike, but well worth it because the view was incredible!
