General Fun

I have about 5 minutes left on this computer (the connection is not reliable at all), but I wanted to attempt to get in a post! So I apologize if it’s evident that this was written hastily…

I wanted to talk about the people in general. I don’t think I’ve ever met more genuinely friendly, warm people! Every day as I walk down the street to work, I’m greeted by people who want nothing more than to ask how things are going. The children are also very sweet: there are two children at the same corner every day who run out and hug me! Their mother always smiles and asks how I am, and when I ask the children how they are in their language (Twi), they say “I’m fine. Bye bye!” with huge smiles, and run back to their mother. This has become a daily routine.

I’ll spend the remainder of my time trying to get some pictures up. If I can’t, then I promise pictures next time!

Cheers,

Janice
