By The Waves
On Tuesday I had the opportunity to experience Kofi’s dream first hand.  Kofi’s uncle, Nicholas, brought me to the village of Premprem.  Premprem is where Kofi grew up.  I arrived at the home of the landowner, who showed me a blue-print of the area.  He brought me to the land where Kofi would like to build his school.  While standing on the soil where future students will learn, I could see the Atlantic Ocean.  I truly have an appreciation for why Kofi calls this dream, “By The Waves.”  As I walked the area, I actually got to talk to Kofi on the telephone.  It was incredibly surreal.  I am now a part of this amazing project.  I cannot wait to come home and share my experience with all of you.  Ghana is everything Kofi talks of it being.
