The Ghanaian experience thus far..
Today is day four of the Ghanaian experience I chose to embark
on for three weeks and today by far has been the best day. My working days here
consist of waking up at 7am getting ready and commuting to work. Commuting to
work every morning and afternoon is an adventure in itself. It involves me
walking through a quasi-forest, saying hello to the local kids who are fascinated
by my appearance and walking down a hill, where it is certain that I will be
hooted at by locals before reaching a bus stop where I get on a ‘tro-tro’ which
takes to a town called ‘Amasama’ where I conduct microfinance work with local
women. The ‘tro-tro’ is quite an exciting mode of transport because sometimes
you are 20 people squashed together (excluding kids!) and you’re moving at high
speed on rough roads. I have also had the privilege of travelling on one of
them which had no door; the experience is comparable to that of going on Tidal
wave! Okay my log in time has ended see you next week!!
