Three days to go, one day left in Kumasi.
The past week has been an emotional pendulum. One moment thinking about how fucked up this country is and how i can't wait to get out of here, and the next moment, i start to feel sad to be leaving, and thinking about how much i love it here. Sheesh. Meanwhile, the power is out all week, meaning I'm in the dark and can't get anything done after sunset, drink tea or listen to music... my room is a mess and I'm reminded of how much I hate moving, especially when I have a 2 bags/30kg limit. Meanwhile, I'm reading Clockwork Orange which is somewhat disturbing and maybe not the best book to be accompanying me and my transition.
This is really strange I feel like I've been here so long... I'm not even sure what I'm coming back to.... "you can never go home again." Maybe it's true. It'll be a new life perhaps. Moving on, moving on.
So. I'm be hopefully back in California by Sunday. Not sure when Jojo will move out of the trailer, so it might be some time before I can come down to Santa Cruz. Maybe around the 10th... that is, unless someone is in the market for a house guest.
