It has been over two weeks since I returned from the ACPA cultural study tour to Ghana. I was there for two weeks, and I visited five higher education institutions, three major cities and many smaller communities. Whenever someone asks me about how the trip was, I find myself at a loss. Can I really encapsulate the beauty of the trip in one passing conversation? Or course not. Also, a part of me feels that is it improper to trim down the essence of the trip to the places I went to, the things I bought, the food I ate, or even, the people I saw and interacted with (although these people did make the trip for me).
Because of this, I will use a series of blog entries to describe the life lessons I learned from my trip to Ghana. Some of the lessons I learned were truly things that I had never thought of before, but many of the things I learned were reinforcements of lessons that I have been learning over the pass few years, or maybe in a way, my whole life.
I hope that this series can begin to give you a glimpse of the beauty of Ghana, its people and why some of the world’s most profound thinking found themselves, abroad.
