14th update
Well, last last blog post. I thought the last blog should have more positive sides to it and not only describe my hospital stays.

I will miss Ghana
I really will. There are lots of things that I am sick of about Ghana and Ghanaians, but even more things that I really enjoy.

I will, first of all, miss the families I have got close to. Especially two small families: Nana, Ni and Natanie; and Cynthia, Alfreda and Prince. They have a big place in my heart. Saying goodbye was hard. I must admit that tears filled my eyes. I will be calling them when I get home (just the typical Ghanaian phone calls taking 1 minute and making sure that the person you are calling is good), and I will send them some photos.
I will also miss Dacosta and his family and keep in touch with them as well. Dacosta and I have had some very interesting discussions about Ghana and development, and he has been working hard to make me feel comfortable and happy all the time - he really cared about me and how I was.
The families surrounding me in Akonfudi will in general stay in my mind for a while. Nana's mother will late be forgotten, as well as class 6 at the school.
Bala, OCEP director, has also been there for me when I needed him, especially when I was in the hospital, and he has been very good at taking me along to different Ghanaian events such as funerals, weddings and Muslim celebrations.

I will miss the Ghanaian hospitality and their open-minded way of being. You are always welcome, and they are almost always happy and smiling.
Their co-existence when it comes to religion is outstanding - we could really learn from that.

I will miss the weather. It is, admitted, a bit too hot, but in general I like - especially the early mornings and evenings.

I will even miss driving in tro-tros. It is often horribly hot, sweaty, noisy and dirty, but there is something to it, still: Sitting in the car being a part of the Ghanaian lifestyle, watching Ghanaian scenery and life pass by, listening to Ghanaian music, and having plenty of time to daydream and think.

I will miss fruits and breakfast sold on the street. Cheap, fast and easily available.

I will miss the view of colourful Ghanaian women carrying babies on their backs and stuff on their heads.

Time to leave
My last week in Ghana has been good. It has been giving me time to say goodbye and also to suck in the last bits of Ghana, showing me the beautiful sides some extra times. And I have had time to relax by the pool and enjoy the sun in luxurious surroundings...

I am now ready to head home to Denmark and to my family and friends. I look very much forward to this. And Tanzania and Kili: Well, see you in May! :)

See you soon!

- oh by the way: Remember one-and-a-half year old Prince from my village? He can only speak very few words but Madam Signe is now a part of those few words! He was saying Madam Signe all the time when I was back Tuesday to Thursday - so so cute :) Man, I will miss him...
