Work the World Reviews

The weekly barbeque on Thursday evenings is definitely the highlight of the week. As well as some delicious food and dancing to catchy Ghanaian music, one week we were treated to some cultural dancing and drumming.

The midwife I spent most of my time with was very special; I find it difficult to put it into words.

"These two weeks gave me the once-in-a-lifetime experience to in areas of work unfamiliar and usually off-limits to me."

At around 10pm the power cut and despite being told there was a lantern, it had no batteries. The baby was born by the light of the torches on our phones!

The strength of Ghanaian women is inspirational. Not only do they click their way through contractions but manage to walk between two rooms in order to bring their newborn to this world.
