Best 3 weeks ever!

I loved my experience volunteering in ghana. I worked in a school for 3 weeks, with small children ages 3-5. It was an experience of a lifetime. I also did trips to krokobite and boti falls, which I would recommend doing. The food was hard to get used to, but once you find something you like, it’s not so bad!
