Host Family


These are the girls that I lived with while in Accra.  Breanna on the left who is 4 and Stephanie, who is 6.  They both attend a private school all day.  Most girls in Ghana have short hair.  This is a rule in some of the schools, to keep lice out of the schools, and also since water is scarce in Africa, they tend to keep it short for easy maintenance. 


This is the home that I stayed in.  The family that I stayed with would be considered an upper-middle class family I believe.  It was a pretty typical 3-bedroom, 1 bath home.
