Martin here; one of the first volunteers from The Ghana trip...It's coming up to week 8 and everything's going swimmingly.

We haven't been in touch as much as we would have liked to be as the internet is quite unpredictable and out of our area, hence the lack of blogs and pictures. But we have been busy snapping away and writing our notes down, which we shall post when we come back to England.

Ok, so stuff we've been doing is...

Making a nursery of tree seedlings, painting various buildings with funky designs, venturing up mountains and ranges plotting GPS signals for maps, and teaching many local schools about wildlife.

I know that's really brief and doesn't really give you a great idea of what it's like out here....but I just wanted you all to know we are alive and very well and enjoying the experience.
