Part 5/8:
A Lesson in Currency
In Uganda, the exchange rate proved to be a fascinating learning opportunity for the children. We discovered how the Ugandan Shilling functioned compared to the dollar and engaged in lively negotiations with locals for items they desired.
Everyday Life in Uganda
Throughout our stay, we immersed ourselves in the daily life of Ugandans and quickly noted the stark differences. Our host, Eddie, guided us through the local fish markets, teaching us about traditional Ugandan foods and customs. The sights, sounds, and scents melded into an experience unlike any we’d ever had.
