Liberia – Our First Impressions

On February 9, 2015 By Harry and Annie Bergshoeff

We have arrived in Liberia! Although our departure from Toronto was delayed because of the snowfall that evening, we arrived on time and were greeted at the airport late on Friday evening by the Executive Director of CHAL, Patricia Kamara.

After carefully preparing ourselves to enter a country experiencing the Ebola Virus crisis, we came armed with both the knowledge about the signs and symptoms of Ebola, and information on how to prevent exposure to this virus. Nevertheless, it was reassuring to see the measures in place all over this city to help control the spread of Ebola. At the airport we were stopped by security to have our temperatures checked and they insisted that we wash our hands with a chlorine solution. Experienced travelers kindly warned us not to dry our hands on our clothes – to prevent bleach stains! Large containers with taps greet us everywhere – at grocery stores, local shops, at the CHAL office and at our accommodation at the Lutheran Guesthouse.
