Home??


I am currently back home in the states. It has been an adjustment back into the american culture. I remember hissing at people in the US airport to get their attention. People in Ghana hiss to get other’s attention. I will truly miss being in Ghana. I will definitely miss getting marriage proposals everyday. While on my way to the airport, i thought i wouldn’t recieve any more marriage proposals but I thought wrong. While going through immigration, the man asked me for my number. Also, while going through security twice with two different men. I got another one from the man that was putting the luggage on the plane. I was actually sad when i didn’t get marriage proposals on the plane. I wonder what would have happened if I would have said yes to any of these men.

I am happy to be back in the states but I plan to go back in December. I know it is sooo soon. But I loved it soooo much. It is so full of culture. It was totally different from america. From people carrying things on their heads, selling food on the street, the markets, women carrying babies on their backs, the language, everything.  I feel like Ghana is my second home!
