My name is Nii, a young Ghanaian from the streets of the capital city, Accra.
Usually, I will play it safe but this time I am leaving my comfort zone. My decision to volunteer at a School for the deaf in a small town outside Accra was a very difficult decision to make and probably the most spontaneous thing I have ever done.
After University, I got a great job working as an Office Manager for a really great company in Accra. Great pay, good benefits, really nice bathrooms, almost perfect but just didn't feel right.

After 3 years in this firm, I felt really scared settling into a job I had no passion for. Staying meant totally giving up on my dream of working in an area I felt so passionate about. I felt like I had this moment and I needed to take it. Mistake or no mistake, within a week I had made a decision to leave, packed my things and handed over my resignation letter. I was ready to go follow my dreams. My friends and family thought I was crazy.
