Ghana

A country to come back and to come back and .....

Looking after your little sister is tiring
In 1980 was Ghana, the first country I visited south of the Sahara.
And I fel in love ... with Africa, with Ghana and with the Ghanaian people.

I stayed for seven weeks and came back again in 1983 for 4 weeks....

And I did come back again in 1989 and 2003.
Nkonya Wuropong, Elisabeth and her neigbours
In 1980 I spent most of the time in the Volta region. I worked as a volunteer with a lot of Ghanaian volunteers from everywhere out of Ghana. We start to build a community centre. Many people of the village worked with us.
Kumasi Market
If you have been for a while in the countryside, it is very crowded in the towns like Accra and Kumasi.
But it is fantastic to walk around and to look what's going on.

 Your pages are a minefield of Info - Evonne is now in Salaga, after a week's training in Tamale ;-)))

 1980-2003! I can understand what you mean about big changes! Same for a lot of places in the Algerian Sahara. An excellent page from an almost insider! Staying for some time in a place gives a very different feeling!
