For class, we must commute to a guest house on the opposite side of town. Luckily, my host family is my professor so I will never be late! Ironically, we were late to class today!

The living situation is much different here (no shit) when it comes to the families. The professor has a wife and three kids but they are in the States at the moment. Five of his nieces and nephews are living at the house for the summer. Three are brothers, aging 9, 19, and 24 and two are sisters who are nursing majors at a University in town.


There are gender roles still in place-- the women wake up before the men do to sweep and clean the house while the men will work. In my case, I'll cook.

African Migas, baby

The house is very nice and it is outside of town in a 'suburb,' unlike other class mates who live closer to the heart of busy Kumasi. I am lucky to live with two other class mates because everyone else has been paired.
