A Year Later

Hello! It's been one year since I've been to Africa and I am absolutely craving my next trip. I traveled to Hohoe, Ghana last year with an organization called Cross-Cultural Solutions (CCS) (crossculturalsolutions.org) and my life has not been the same since. I have started this blog to share stories, pictures, videos and to urge you not to just travel, but to become immersed in another culture that is different from your own. I taught my own class for about a month in a small school right in Hohoe and also did some volunteer work at a school for the mentally challenged that was located in the outskirts of the village. Working beside local people for commonly shared community goals was the most unique and clarifying experience I have ever had and I am anxiously counting down the days until CCS takes me back for more!
