Friends Visit

In June I was fortunate to welcome three visitors from the States to my village. My friend from home, Anna, came with two of her friends from college. We had a great time, despite their visit coinciding with the strikes and riots. It was so interesting to rediscover Guinea again through their fresh impressions.
