An American’s First Week in Ghana, by Sophia Prince

As I stepped out of the air-conditioned Kotoka International Airport, the first thing that hit me was the overwhelming heat and humidity of Accra.

My First Daily Guide Assignment

Wednesday was my second day of work. Day one didn’t warrant a post – it was mostly uneventful and consisted primarily of learning the who’s-who and what’s-what of the office.
