"Please be safe, there are bombs and guns there!"

That was the response I got from one of my Ugandan colleagues when I told her I was heading to the states (and more specifically California) today.

For those of you who have been concerned about my safety in Kampala, hopefully that gives you some perspective :)

This is crazy but so true. Great perspective to have - we always think undeveloped parts of the world are unsafe but look at our country and all the shootings that happen here!

    I'm eager to learn about the world around me and find that travel (and food) is one of my favorite ways in which to do so. 

    I'm currently a consultant, taking a little break from the corporate world of consulting. Follow me here on my adventures around East Africa! 40 countries and counting...
