Season 2 of the East Africa Travel Podcast by Diary of a Muzungu is live soon!
- What did I hear when tracking the Posho family of gorillas
in Nkuringo, southern Bwindi Impenetrable Forest? - How many elephants did I see at Ishasha Wilderness Camp?
- What advice do the Uganda Wildlife Authority Rangers give before visitors chimp tracking?
Catch up with season 1 of the East Africa Travel Podcast and tell me what you think?
I love hanging out with the rangers. They have the best stories!
Over the last couple of months I’ve been tracking gorillas and interviewing rangers across the country for my podcast and for Fodor’s Travel. Read Heroes of the Jungle, a taster for the podcasts I’m working on!
Thinking of hiking Uganda’s highest peak?
To mark International Women’s Day, I shared a story about Dr. Lilly Ajarova’s first book Echoes from Mountains of the Moon — about her epic hike of Uganda’s Rwenzori Mountains and the training that got her there.
Lilly has just completed her tenure as CEO of Uganda Tourism Board. Read my blog post From peak to page: one woman’s story of adventure and purpose.
