First Impressions of Uganda
First Impressions of Uganda from our July 2016 newbies:
Jasmine: Sad, but happy seeing the conditions here, but happy to be able to help.
Jetcy: Reminds me a lot of India and made me feel like I was home. The people look so happy!
Marie: I was surprised by the number of men out and about. There were not many women or children out today. So many motors with men and no traffic symbols.
Johnet: I’m amazed and surprised at how close the towns are together and the number of shops with the homes in the back of the shop. For a country who doesn’t have anything, they spend a lot of time in the shops.
Shannon: Surreal feelings today … felt like pages from a National Geographic. I wanted the driver to slow
Marie: There appears to be so many men out and about but I did not see many women and children. down so I could see more. Impressed that at dark the people gather together for a meal!
