I was checking out some old files on the hard drive and stumbled across this piece I wrote after my Trip to Ghana with a team in 2005. It’s funny, 7 years later reading about the struggles, it all seems so familiar! This was also the summer we won the Olympics and there were bombings on the underground system in London, both of which happened while in Ghana.
