I spent 3 weeks in Ghana on the teaching project and absolutely loved it!
The moment I walked out of the airport Seth was waiting there for me with the rest of the volunteers and as soon as I met them all I knew that I was going to get on well with everyone.
I saw Seth as more than just a host, he was a good friend to all of us. Since there was no gym there, Seth had made his own weights and some mornings he would wake me up at 6am and we would both have a good workout before placement.
I also got along with all of the other staff, specially Kofi, who loved to joke around and make everyone laugh.

Ghana is an amazing country and a very interesting one too. It's so different to what we are all use to and I loved getting up every morning and wondering what new things I would see that day.
The weekend excursions where fantastic because I got to see so much more of the country and got to experience so many more things.

In conclusion, this was the best experience I have had so far and I'm glad I decided to go for it. I met some amazing people that I will never forget, I learned so many things about the people and their culture, and most of all, I saw a completely different world that not many people have seen and I came back feeling proud knowing that I helped out and made some school kids happy by teaching and playing with them.

Would you recommend this program?
Yes, I would
