Ending my Uganda series with these two cuties…

Although they look very adorable, they are the most dangerous animals in Africa. There’s only one thing to keep in mind whenever crossing these animals: never ever stand between a hippo and water!

Life in Madrid is a little bit more relaxing then it is in Belgium.

So I finally found the time to finish the blog post of our Uganda trip.

You can read all about our adventures via the link in bio. Since I have never had so many DM’s during our trip, mostly from Belgian followers. I uploaded the post in Dutch, the English version will follow by the end of the week!

Enjoy 🎈

What does travel mean to you? Why do people leav

What does travel mean to you?

Why do people leave their homes and travel all over the world? The reasons why people love to travel are varied, and often personal.

🌍Challenging yourself
You might feel like you’re stuck in your daily life. Or you are in need for something exciting and different. You are craving new experiences and new challenges. Travel is the ideal place to test yourself. It pushes people to their limits and gets them outside their comfort zone.

🌍Learning
Learning is a strong reason why people love to travel. Experience something unfamiliar and leave with new skills or knowledge. Seeing the world is more educational than everything you learn at school. Every destination has something unique to teach their visitors and immersing yourself in a completely different world is the best learning experience.

🌍Expanding your perspectives
You can’t imagine how different life is in another place until you see for yourself.
By being exposed to new places, people, and cultures, you will develop a wider world view.

🌍Getting in touch with yourself
Getting away from home gives you the opportunity to reflect on your life. You have the needed time and space to let your mind wander.

🌍Appreciation
When you are busy in your daily life, it’s easy to lose sight of what you have. Exploring another place will give you a fresh appreciation for your hometown, country and “real life.”

Tell me, why do you love to travel?

While road tripping throughout Uganda, we saw many Baboon families.

Baboons are among the largest non-hominoid primates and have existed for at least two million years. Every time we crossed a family, I was a bit frightened. They have this look in their eyes, like they can attack you at every moment! We even saw one baboon shredding a baby into pieces…needless to say we were shocked 😅

Baboons are for sure not my favorite kind of apes but they are interesting to watch for sure!

I have this thing with tree houses…

Ever since I was a child I crawled into trees with the scouts.

Nowadays I enjoy these tiny, cosy houses to the fullest while traveling.
There is something exciting and adventurous about them.

No distractions and no notifications. Just the green beautiful scenery, enjoying nature to the fullest.

That’s what makes me the happiest while traveling.

The most elegant animal of them all 🦒
We spotted giraffes in Lake Mburo National Park, the second smallest park in Uganda. One that most people skip because of their busy schedule. Personally it was one of my favorites to visit. Because of the rainy season the whole park was a beautiful green landscape and it has the largest population of zebras throughout the country.

You can enjoy the classic game drives but also walking or even horse safaris. If you are planning to visit the park, make sure to book a lodge at Mihingo Lodge to enjoy your trip to the fullest!

Road tripping on unpaved paths, hiking through the jungle, enjoying volcano views, learning about wild life…

Ever since I was 16 years old I dreamed of visiting the gorillas….
And it was definitely my absolute highlight during our trip to Uganda!

Things you need to keep in mind if you ever want to visit these beautiful creatures yourself:

🦍 Book your permits well in advance.
🦍 Bring sunscreen, a rain jacket, long pants, water, packed lunch, camera and decent hiking shoes.
🦍 It’s hard to predict how long you will need to hike to see the gorillas. We were lucky and found them after 1,5 hours. But it can take upon to 6 hours as well!
🦍 The hike is steep and in the middle of the jungle.
🦍 You get to spend 1 hour with the gorillas in groups of max 8 persons.
🦍 Rangers and some locals will join you during the hike for protection.
