Well for those of you who are worried, I'm still alive!! I got in late on Friday night in Accra. Things are very different here, but in a good way. It is very sunny and hot every day, however i'm still not getting a tan, maybe by the end of the trip. At first it was strange to be the only white people around and having everyone stare at me, and yell obruni (meaning white person) at me, some even try to touch you, mostly the children. At first i found it slightly annoying, but then i realized when i saw i white person i would stare and think to myself "what's a whitie doing here," so it's understandable. It has only been two and 1/2 days and I have already seen so many cool things. No monkeys yet, but many lizards and frogs. There are some things about Ghana that i know that i will miss when this short trip comes to an end. More to come later...

In 11 days i leave for two great adventures. My first stop is Accra, Ghana and i will be there for three weeks. Then i will leave straight from Ghana to Barcelona, Spain. I just wanted to make this blog for anyone who wants to see what i'll be up to for the next five months. I hope to see some cool shit, be able to share my experiences, and hopefully come back knowing a lot more Spanish.
