And She's Off!

That's right, the day has arrived! After a final weekend in Kampala doing my best to wrap things up and say goodbye, I leave town in just under 10 hours to begin my travels down to South Africa on my way to Australia.


While my four months here have felt both very long yet very short at different times, it's a very surreal feeling to be departing my somewhat settled life here. But I've certainly had a good run in Uganda and I feel lucky for the experiences I've had, the places I've seen thus far, and most importantly, the people I've met here.

Here's to a continued adventure that is often challenging (especially now that I'm traveling solo) but is certainly never boring--except maybe 40 hours straight on a train (more on that to come I think...). As I bid a fond farewell to Katch the Sun, my internet haven in Bugolobi, I will do my best to keep my blog as updated as internet access across Africa will allow...Cheers!
