2009/02/10 arrival in wandegeya

my 24 hour travel to entebbe was quite exciting itself, as i had to stay at the airport in dubai for 8 hours. besides being fascinated by the cultural melting pot i chilled or rather went to sleep as everybody else did..



eva picked me up and i must say that from the minute a i walked out of the airport i was totally stunned by the wonderfully green landscape of uganda. i must admit that i had always figured that african countries have to be dry and savannah-ish; not greener than home!

the cab took us to wandegeya, the area where eva stays permanently at the akamwesi hostel.

besides the proximity to makarere university the area is known for being middle to low standard working class environment. which on the one hand means no luxury, but on the other ugandian every day life. i loved it!
