Wealth vs poverty
A contrasting last day in Kampala
After a night at the luxury hotel Fairway and a delicious and comfortable breakfast, we went down together to the slums of Kisinji after crossing the busy Kampala Road and the chaotic taxi park. First stop was a new gathering place for slum boys - The Bridge. Sounds cool, but it's just a dilapidated stone bridge at the entrance to Kisinyi
Fahtil(Overdose) and Brenda have both grown up in the slums, so we feel safe with them as local guides + the new guys Tony and Karim
It is not recommended in travel guides to travel around the Owino Market and in Chisinau. After experiencing the hospitality and joy that we encountered, it is difficult to understand.
Personally, I think this is a day for learning, experience and competence. A day full of contrasts that also shows that "if you want to understand wealth, you must understand poverty" - and vice versa. Thank you very much for the trip to the 13 of you at Africa - Aid/culture. Swahili culture and Lamu next-in March!
