<\/p>\nMy vacation in Ghana has sadly come to an end, and I can’t stop looking back at the fun pictures and moments that I miss already! It was a much needed vacation and though I’m in Ghana quite often(depending on how fast you think a year goes by), this particular trip felt quite different. I believe it had a lot to do with my new outlook on life, and the kinds of things I now felt were more important, like the little blessings I overlooked everyday. When I list my favorite moments in Ghana, the simple moments I shared with loved ones seem to take the cake: seeing faces I haven’t seen in six years, rekindling friendships, learning and trying new things, time alone with family, and other really special moments\u00a0no DSLR could ever capture(…quite right). To be fair, I went almost two weeks without taking out my camera or remembering my iPhone could photograph.<\/p>\n
But of course, they were many moments I did capture on my phone like the ones from\u00a0my Instagram feed<\/a>\u00a0up here\u00a0which also comes in as today’s Here and Now<\/a> feature\u00a0and the\u00a0very\u00a0first of 2015.<\/p>\n Yummy coconut after Sunday’s Church service, quite too many visits to the beach, enjoying the warm African sun by the pool on the hills of Hillburi<\/a>, waking up super early to go enjoy an impromptu\u00a0getaway to a resort in the Eastern Region of Ghana before the rest of the world woke up and the accompanying calls and stress\/work of the day catches up to us. Of course, the calls started coming in even while we were on our way -____- but the speedboat ride we took instead of turning back home was the perfect ignore button to all the stress and work. \u00a0These are just a few of my favorites!
