”The fact that I shared this experience with my daughter and was able to join her in the outreach projects was very special. The flexibility in my placement was excellent in that I was able to work with the schools and was also welcomed to participate in the malaria testing and wound care outreaches. This made for a very rewarding experience . Our 4 weeks provided many memorable experiences. The Mli falls hike was a huge accomplishment, the weekend trip to Cape Coast that was offered was extremely well organized, safe and provided much value to being in Ghana. The local team could often be heard saying "your wish is my command" and in fact they did make sure everyone in our group had what they needed and wanted, nothing seemed to be an imposition.”
