The Khukyenda Guide

The Khukyenda Guide

Khukyenda translates to "travel" in Lugisu, my mother tongue. As a travel blogger from Uganda and founder of khukyenda.com, I get asked about travel quite often - this quick travel guide answers some of those commonly asked questions plus gives insight into WHY I travel and HOW I do it. The insights I share apply not only to travel, but to other aspects of life as well. My prayer is that you will be inspired to not only travel more, but also to live the very best version of your life, today.
