Snapshots from Community Health Nursing #HogsAbroad in Ghana

My name is Hannah Cogburn and I recently returned from my community health nursing study abroad trip to Ghana. Here are a few photos from my time in Ghana.
In a town called Paga, Ghana, crocodiles are considered to be sacred ancestors and are highly respected. This one was very patient and put up with our lengthy photoshoot!
A fun night spent watching the World Cup and eating a deliciously spicy meal with some locals in our custom-made outfits.
One of the local seamstresses in the craft market was kind enough to let us play with her beautiful daughter, Princess!
We were in awe of the overlook at Mole Park where we spent lunch watching elephants, antelope, warthogs, and monkeys in their natural habitat. 
On our safari at Mole Park, we walked deep into the foliage to watch some elephants snack on some roots.

One of our last stops was in Cape Coast in southern Ghana. We were able to spend some time on the beach and have some fresh seafood which was the perfect ending to a life-changing trip.
