We're back here, after months, but we are justified in fact there have been changes graaandi!
From the bucolic life of "campaign" in the village Greg moved with his mother in the chaotic capital Kampala. Kampala is, like most African capitals, a chaos. You can find everything, but just about anything, even for the sophisticated needs of our European expatriates. What you will find this city is like a major European city, including casinos, restaurants for all tastes, swimming pools, gyms, cinema and theater ... In short we wanted to kick it big but we actually ... but we take advantage Kampala little luxury is not just the Owino market, central market (huge) made up of shacks on top of each other, creating narrow passageways and smelly including "walk" to search for the desired item among hundreds of people shouting, running, eating ... there are areas of men's clothes, towels zone, zone of fabrics and seamstresses
... Kampala is also street children, begging at traffic lights, and street vendors at every street corner that sell the most unexpected as deck chairs, toys, games, or make a pedicure or manicure on the sidewalk just having a litter box for objects.
In Kampala there are the rich neighborhoods of villas behind high gates or hedges green but there are slums where people live who have fled from war ventanale the north and settled in areas divided according to tribe. The children of these slums speak Luganda (the language of the central region where Kampala is located) since they use at school, but also and above all speak the language of the regions where they come from and follow the traditions of their tribe even though we live in the capital in short .. many cities are in the city.
E 'difficult, I believe, get to know all its secrets and Kampala and its contradictions but it is also so fascinating creche always look "behind" to everything, from the bright lights behind the Supermarket, behind the road and lit behind the luxurious rooms there is always another world A world where thousands of people at night in the dark as they do not have electricity, but that move, chat, cook, wash, do shopping ... only, often unseen by the eyes of those who do not want to see.
