Akwaaba (Welcome)

Thursday, June 3

I’m in Ghana, and safe and sound. My flight was smooth, and only a little late. Kelvin (the man I’m working with at the Junior Art Club, who’s friends with Haverford anthro prof Jesse Shipley) picked me up at the airport, then showed me around the city.

Accra is different from any place I’ve ever been to before. But it’s cool. Or, I should say, hot.

Kelvin on my first day here waiting for the tro-tro, a crazy bus they have that costs as low as 20 pesewas.
