I just wanted to post quick and let everyone know that I have arrived safely in Kampala, Uganda after a couple of travel days. I have met most of the staff here in the Food for the Hungry office and will enjoy getting to know them better over the next few months. My room in the guesthouse is clean and comfortable and will do a fine job serving as my home while I'm here. However, I will be excited to welcome the study abroad students when they arrive in less than a month because currently I am the only person staying in the house and it's a little lonely.
For those of you who follow the news closely perhaps you have heard of the riots that have been happening over the last few days here in Kampala due to some political/cultural disagreements. As of right now, the violence seems to be somewhat contained and has not affected the district I'm staying in at all. I'll do my best to keep you posted of any further happenings but I hope that after today the tensions will have past.
My internet connection in the guesthouse has been out since I arrived here and I'm doing my best to figure out what the issue is but I may not have any email or blog contact over the weekend but I'll update as soon as possible.
Peace,
Matt
