Three Friends from Afar

Nicole came in March from the US and stayed for a couple of months. As we said goodbye to her, Tristan and Jeanne arrived from the US and South Africa respectively. We have just said goodbye to them.

We miss them all.

Each one of them brought a new perspective, shared much with us, helped shape the project and have left as dear friends to many here.

In their own words:
"Wondrous" - Jeanne
"An experience and a half." - Tristan
"You can't come here and leave unchanged." - Nicole

Moments that a camera didn't capture:
Nicole doing yoga (surya namaskar) surrounded by what seemed like a hundred children following suit outside the library.
Jeanne carrying a load of beans, which she harvested herself, on her back.
Tristan and Geoffrey storming up to Sasa River Camp inside Mt. Elgon National Park and down in record time.

We hope that you will continue to keep Buhugu in your mind and heart. And please come back.

A special thanks to the mums at home, Charles and friends in Kampala, the volunteers and many others who took care of the visitors and helped make their stay a special one.
