T minus 30 Days and Counting

Hello Everyone. I have created a blogspot so that everyone back at home can follow me during my adventures abroad.








Map of Ghana and where I will be!

My Home-Base in Hohoe, Ghana



Children drumming. One of the many activities planned for us!
All my preparations are almost complete.

Flight: Check (thanks Don and John)
Vaccinations: Check
Passport: Check
Program fee: Check (thanks Gigi and Pop and everyone else who generously donated)
Visa: sending out in the mail today
Hotel: completing with in the week
Packing: haven't even though of yet!

I am getting anxious about leaving. It has come up on me so fast. I started looking at my calendar when I still had over 90 days and now all of a sudden, I am leaving within the next month. Really I have two more weeks to get things accomplished. Then I leave for North Carolina, I am home for fours days and then I'm leaving on a jet plane!

I am going to try to keep this as updated as possible to let everyone know what I am up to while I am in Africa. Although I'm not sure how often I will have Internet access while I am over there. I will also try to post pictures of my adventures.

A great big THANKS for everyone who has supported my wanderlust and need to explore foreign peoples and lands.

  1. HI Tara! It was great to hear your voice. I have read your blog and envy you your experience.

    Please get as much music as you can, I would like to hear the local music. i bet your brother will as well.

    Are you keeping journal?

    I am looking forward to your further adventures.

    Don't you wish that your blog site had spell check. i am not used to having to do my own spell corrections.

    LOVE YOU
