Ok, so things are starting to look better… They are better... just had a small moment of doubt (I think it’s allowed, right?) My counter part is the one who took care of me, washing my clothing, making me my meals during my few day visit to Kute, and seeing that I’m comfortable. My supervisor (starting to get on my nerves) took me around the community telling me that when it’s a market day, this is the person I must buy onions from, this is the person I much have all my dresses made by, and where I’m to go to wash my hair (I do believe that I can wash my own hair), telling me to take pictures of certain items in town and introducing me to the committee that I’ll be working with on the ginger production. He’s been asking me every five minutes if I’m ok… (yeah dude I’m fine, so PLEASE stop asking) showing me something and immediately asking for my approval and praise, and saying that this is this and you will like it… end of story I guess.

This is probably where the cultural differences come in, and I just have to be accepting, understanding, put a smile on my face and again work on the 2^nd goal of The Peace Corps… educating the Ghanaians about American culture.

Oh boy…

I have since left the Volta Region... met up with a few other Voltarians in HoHoe and set off on a two day trek across Ghana to get to our technical training in Techiman. Had a breath of fresh air as soon as I was back on my own... no one breathing down my neck telling me how my life should be going... Ahhhh.
