So I have been mysteriously silent as of late, I'm sure it is not mysterious to my few subscribers but I have been in Ghana for almost a month now, flying out this Friday. I have a lot written in my other blog, Not a Safari, and I have basically been updating that instead of this. I have been pretty busy with outreaches and such, and have had limited or no internet capability since I have arrived.

| A tree at outreach where I did visual acuity outside because I forgot my survey |

| It has been a lot of fun so far, totally insane and incredibly interesting. Given the choice I would probably not stay as long as I have, and I am really excited to go home. It can be immensely satisfying and rewarding to work at outreach, but sometimes the alien environment, these people I don't really know and, even the trees are so very different; I am sometimes overwhelmed by homesickness and a longing to be back amongst friends and family. |
