Well, this is goodbye Uganda. So long, farewell, see you soon.
My time here in Uganda is rapidly coming to a close. I've been here just over 3 months and it feels weird to be leaving already. It feels like I only just arrived.
Packed up everything that I have and it all fits in 2 suitcases. My life in Uganda fits nicely into 2 suitcases.
Brittney and I were struggling a bit with getting our passports back. Our visas were only issued for 90 days and technically we are in the country for 97 days. The HR lady at ISU was who we were told to go to to get a renewal for the last 7 days. At first, she told me that we wouldn't get our passports back until Wed, which is the day we leave. I was a little worried that we couldn't get them back in time. Luckily, we got them one day before our journey back home. Emma, my CT, dropped the passports off to us last night. I got to say a final goodbye to her and her two daughters. I started getting teary eyed.
Last night, the girls at the guesthouse took Brittney and I out to Little Donkey for our final goodbye meal. It was really nice to get to spend more time with the friends that I have made out here. I feel lucky to have met some truly wonderful, genuine people here.
Currently, I'm at Coffee at Last, using up some free WiFi and hanging out with Phoebe, another wonderful woman that I've met.
It feels surreal to be heading back home to Georgia soon. It's like that feeling you get at the end of summer camp. You wanna stay and keep on playing. However, you know that summer is over and it's time to go home and go back to normal life.
Thanks for reading my blog about Uganda. Hopefully, I'll have another one full of different adventures.
See you soon.
