One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Last Summer (2012) my brother and me were in Uganda. We worked at for a International Service Center, by developing touristic trips according to 'community based tourism'. In this concept we try to involve locals in the touristic setting, so the are able to make some more income. This way of travelling and working is very attractive to me, because we met a lot of locals with a different stories and visited the most isolated locations.
