While you may stay in Ghana for only eight months, the experience will stay with you, in many different ways, long after you have returned to Canada. My experience in Ghana has entered into my everyday life numerous times. Whether I was doing field work in my fourth year, or simply trying to understand international issues, the things I did and the people I spoke to in Ghana often came into play. Since graduating form Trent, my experiences in Ghana have directly contributed to me being hired for three very different jobs: one in development work abroad, one in teaching, and one working with children in a museum.
Your time in Ghana provides experience you will use forever. It will guide and aid you In both your personal and professional life for years to come. Stay in Ghana for eight months. Have Ghana stay in you forever.
