http://ghanaxp.blogspot.com/2011/07/coming-back-i.html
Monday, 4 July 2011. 22 May- 19 June 2011. I have always observed that when something comes to an end, there is always a surge in the activities. Same thing happened to me when my time in Ghana was coming to an end and it was the last month. I had to be part of a week long training cum workshop, organize for two workshops, complete all of my reports and say bye to the people around properly within four weeks. 8220; So soon? The bus started. I was not going to come to this place again. In the even...श...

Tuesday, 22 March 2011. The Difference A Smile Can Make. After seeing them organized for the snap, I just clicked it. One of the women told me afterwards that they were ready then. I told them that I have already clicked the photo. She argued, “But you did not tell us to smile. How can that be a good picture? 8221; and everybody became ready in their best smiles. Monday, 21 March 2011. Today is the day when my actual stay here is mostly over by 75%. It is also the day, where I realize that many of th...

The Ghana Experience: February 2011
http://ghanaxp.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 16 February 2011. 31 January to 11 February 2011. With most of the girls living in a not so much controlled social environment with poverty common everywhere, getting into puberty is a start of a problem here. It is not very uncommon to see young school going girls getting pregnant and bearing children in this part of the world. Are Bongo girls dangerous or the uncontrolled social environment which leads to this situation? Latter is of course true. Thursday, 3 February 2011. Family relations h...

After entering vegetable section, the first stall was having tomatoes, onions and ginger. “Hurray! Saturday, 18 December 2010. 4 -11 December 2010.

The Ghana Experience: October 2010
http://ghanaxp.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, 23 October 2010. The Changes within Three and Half Months. There are always periods of high and low in almost every aspect of life. This is true for one's mood, health, work and so many other things. One of my friend was complaining two months back about feeling low. I had not properly understood at that time what she was telling about. There were many limitations to the workshop however because of the way VSO works. Since VSO places the volunteers with the organizations and there is very l...

The Ghana Experience: August 2010
http://ghanaxp.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, 27 August 2010. More exploration of Kumasi. Volunteer Conference- Day II and III. After the dance troupe was gone, it was our turn. We tried some Ugandan dance and then we taught the game Indian game of Phugadi to some people. But after seeing the condition of some people after playing it very few people came forward for it. Group Discussion, besides the pool. Really Cool! Opening Ceremony of the Volunteer Conference. Maharashtrian Phugadi, Ghanaian Land, Australian Player. It's truly global.

Saturday, 29 January 2011. While working in the development sector, one keeps on hearing words such as poverty, livelihoods, food security and hunger so frequently that it all starts sounding like a rhetoric. This blog post is not based on any UN Millennium Development Goal or agenda of some development agency but whatever I have experienced here in Bongo and the thoughts I have on the issue. Wednesday, 19 January 2011. Traditional housing for the birds. Harmattan is a characteristic season of the Saheli...
