Travelling soon!

I'm going to visit one of my best friends in Spain in about 2 weeks. We will travel small around where she lives and then she will come back to Ghana with me and travel around here for a bit and come and stay in my community with me. I am so excited. She is one of my very best friends from college and she would, actually, be a really good PC volunteer. She never feels awkward in situations that most people would feel awkward and she likes to take her time with everything she does. Perfect for PC Ghana! haha.

I need a little bit of rejuvenation anyways. Life here gets very monotonous and it is easy to get wrapped up in the everyday this and that. It is nice to get away and let your mind rest from trying to figure out how and what to do in the village.

After our last regional meeting, about 2 weeks ago, myself and two other PCV's went for a hike up to one of the mountains around this area. It was really beautiful from up there. We then hiked from there to some other villages and then finally up to one of the other PCV's villages, where we spent the night. It was really nice to get away from people (as a white person, and foreigner, in general, people are constantly watching and scrutinizing everything you do) and just hike through the bush.
