“There are some parts of the world that, once visited, get into your heart and won’t go. For me Uganda was such a place. When I first visited, I was stunned by the richness of the land, by its pearl beauty and green nature and warm people by its ability to overload the senses with the pure, concentrated intensity of its colors, smells, tastes, and sounds. It was as if all my life I had been seeing the world in black and white, until brought face-to-face with Uganda”. Evellyn Gonçalves
