Counting the days

The journey I have dreamed about for so long is unfolding in a matter of days.

It is due to the encouragement, support and love of my relatives and friends that I am able to step into this developing world. I want this cyberplace to be the place where we may remain connected in a special way. Please know that I take you all with me and I ask that you keep a small part of me fresh in your memories and hearts during my time in Africa.

I have had all my shots and will take all the necessary health precautions for I have work to do. You all know how I value education and that I believe it is through education change occurs. I plan on leaving Bechem, Ghana a better place and hope I touch at least one teacher's heart to give it her all for the betterment of her students.
