Wow! First post - OK...I better explain who I am and why the blog is. Up until now I have never bothered to write a blog - anything I have wanted to write I've written on another website, in very irregularly spaced intervals. The reason I'm starting a blog is that I'm going to teach in Ghana for six weeks, and then stay with a doctor and teacher connected with my Church
in another part of Ghana for two weeks. I leave at the end of April, and come back the end of June. While I'm out there I won't have easy access to the Internet, but I hope to be able to go to an Internet café once a week - so I will hopefully update this blog once a week while I'm there. As for who I am - I'm 18, fresh out of a grammar school in Buckinghamshire, UK. Since September I've been working in a Respite Care home for adults with severe learning disabilities. Its been good, hard, rewarding work, and overall fun, mainly due to the hardworking and welcoming staff there. Next year I'm planning to go to uni in Exeter to study maths and physics for four years. After that I have no plans, apart from that I dont want to go into banking (a popular route for maths/physics grads - it pays well).
To do - I still have quite a bit to do before I leave. The most important must be buying equipment, especially anti-malarials, a backpack, medical kit, water bottle etc etc. So its gonna be a busy few weeks until I leave. Apart from that things are mostly going well. I think Ill manage to get everything done before I leave. Probably. All the important bits, anyway.
OK...That's enough for now. Gnight all!

Dude!
What an adventure this will be.
Have fun.
Welcome to the blogosphere, and good on you for documenting this part of your life!
Oh - A quick note (can I edit my entry?) - Im volunteering to do this - its not a job as such, since I pay for the privalage of doing it.
Callum,
What a wonderful adventure! To travel and do some good in the world - nothing better. You are a good soul. While this experience will surely change you in many ways, I can't help but think of the many lives you will touch, the life-long friends you'll make, and how you will leave one little corner of the world better than you found it.
Be sure and take many pictures...pack a few bound journals for memoir writing and do it each day...a local language dictionary may be of use...a decent Swiss Army knife...
Awaken each day early and take in every moment...breath, breath in the air...don't be afraid to care...
I'll be looking for your posts, my friend....John (wooz)
What a wonderful adventure you are sure to have.. Stay safe...**hugs**
Kudos to you for doing this, Callum.
You will touch many people, and be touched by many more. You will not be the same person after... I look forward to following your adventures.
Keep us updated at RP, and make sure to take lots of pics. (just not of the Police or Gendarmes- they get touchy around cameras...)

They don't work! They'll allow get an sizegenetics, that's about all, and having an sizegenetics has never been a problem for me, so the pump was simply a waste of money.But what about penis sizegenetics sizegenetics and lotions? Forget about them! How could any pill or lotion give you a bigger penis? Now, in the event the makers of Viagra brought out a penis sizegenetics pill, I can be tempted to give it a try, but otherwise, no thank you.Determined by this man's experience, and my own opinion as providing researcher and reviewer throughout this field, when you really need a bigger penis, you need to be prepared to work for it.
