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.

So grateful for the love and support that has been pouring in this week 🙏

Always wanted to write a book, wasn't sure that I'd actually do it.
The truth is, so much is possible if you're willing to go ahead and do it, inspite of your fear.

  • Are you excited? 🙋☀ I am, because I have something up my sleeve 😉 (swipe right). _ The next #AdrenalineAndChill group trip, RELOADED, will be happening from July 12th - 14th. People have been asking me about zip-lining over Lake Bunyonyi and so we are going back 💃💃 This is your chance to travel with me, have some fun and create beautiful lasting memories. Special thanks to the team at @supremeadventurepark - where everything will be taking place. Follow bio link (and swipe right) for more details. Call/ DM now to reserve your slot.
  • What kind of traveler are you? Newbie or veteran? Budget or luxury? Thrill seeker or risk averse? _ Quite frankly, I'm a mix of it all. In some spaces I'll feel like a veteran, other times like I'm in the infancy stage of wanderlust (there is always so much to see and learn). Sometimes I'd rather splurge on activities and book budget accommodation, other times I crave the comfort of a luxury hotel room. Sometimes I'm a thrill seeker, other times (few times 😉) I'm risk averse. One thing I'm certain of though is that I'll always challenge myself to intentionally experience new things. I strongly believe that we were given this life to experience it, and to experience it in all it's fullness (paraphrasing John 10:10). _ What about you? What kind of traveler are you? Have a sunny weekend ☀
  • Sending you cozy hump day vibes from @rushagagorillacamp New Blog Post up - read about my exuberant stay complete with amazing views of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, the most delicious food and interactions with the Batwa community. Link in my bio.

  • "The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun." - Christopher McCandless 🌸 🌸 Picture taken in #Kisoro - located in Western Uganda under the peaks of the Mufumbiro Mountains, which are part of the Virunga Mountain Range and home to the Mountain Gorillas. You'll be welcomed with rolling hills, mountain scenary and views of beautiful Lake Mutanda. This was taken on my way to @rushagagorillacamp where I stayed (see IG story highlights). Worth a visit!
