Travel really does open the mind, and enables us to share new ideas. In this case, my experiences in Sri Lanka have enabled me to introduce new, free, and highly nutritious food ideas to Uganda.

The lady in this video saw, and replicated.

Fantastic to meet in Entebbe with our Psychology intern Abe, who is leaving after 3 weeks, and Shang, who is arriving for a 3 month social work internship, with our local organiser, clinical psychologist, Mr Emmanuel for numerous introductions.
