Another adventure is about to begin. At first when I heard where the coaches were going this year I had a fleeting moment of "Oh no, what will I write about?" All 6 coaches going to Ghana (four of us from Canada and two from Ireland) are going to major urban centres. Now that I have spent some time researching I know this is going to be another amazing adventure. Louise, my partner from Ireland, and I are going to Kumasi. Want to compare two cities?
Kumasi is the second largest city in Ghana with an area of around 265 sq km. In that area about 2 million people reside. Our fair city of Edmonton is approximately 635 sq km in area, with around 820,000 residents. Sounds like its going to be easy to meet LOTS of people! We will be visiting three credit unions while we are there, and hopefully we will be able to help them grow, prosper, and help their communities.
I hope you will join me on this wonderful adventure, and I will try my best to create images in your mind that will put you right there with me.
