phase 2: check.

and so ends the oh so cliche "post-graduation i dont know what ill do with my life so ill travel" trip. i have an afternoon in rome tomorrow and then i begin the most drawn out trip to accra ever. begining in cairo i fly through... khartoum, addis ababa, possibly lagos if im lucky and eventually/finally, accra.

we finally ended up leaving greece for croatia a couple of days ago. after a stunt at the pink palace in corfu, we took too many overnight ferries to dubrovnik. croatia was incredible and one of my favourite spots in europe thus far. we spent days poking around the old city, learning about socialist experiments and the war, kayaking/biking (injury free) around a few islands, and eating. its a funny mix in croatia of max maras, outdoor adventures and bullet holes. it was a cool spot to spend my last few days before heading back to the camp... interesting to see how tourism and reconstruction work out together.

not a lot more to be said about the past few days. suppose ive been a bit preoccupied with going back to the camp.. i think ive stocked up on all the food, relaxation and toiletries ill need for the next while and now im ready to go. next post should be from somewhere in ghana!
