I CROSS THE BORDER TO UGANDA ALONE WITH MY TOYOTA HILUX! |S3EP8|

The solo overland expedition across Africa is now bringing me to the Republic of Uganda! It's going to be the 6th country of the adventure and I'm impatient to discover this land of Eastern Africa with Rafiki, my Toyota Hilux! The roads are already rough , muddy, and challenging overlall! Luckily, Rafiki is well equipped to face all terrains of Uganda. I don't know anything about this unique African country and what I'm about to live is going to be unforgettable although unexpected......The only question is: are you ready to follow me on that one?

Welcome to UGANDA the Pearl of Africa 🇺🇬

[@CharlineRibotta]

Thank you so much dear 💙

[@financeboy22]

You are very welcome to Uganda and by the time u live u will agree with me u have not been to any beautiful country unlike Uganda

[@CharlineRibotta]

In Uganda, water is flowing almost everywhere. No problem washing your car in Uganda.

[@CharlineRibotta]

Thank you dear, I will keep it in mind💙

[@trs4714]

not wanting your car to be washed! I love it, seen other travelers who were cleaning their cars.... I don't understand while there such little water for the inhabitants, Charline, whit your lovely accent, you stole my heart I try to imagine what it would do to me seeing the refugee camp....

[@CharlineRibotta]

I do think washing a car in Africa is not the best idea indeed… yes, this refugee camp was very impressive, I felt very moved, I didn’t expect that…

[@Luke-san]

Looks completely different than the other countries, not sure how but it's different. Be careful with those food poisonings. Not sure if you will like France again after all that weather and the freedom to drive somewhere and not to be seen at all. Alone with nature is the best thing in the world. Sometimes I just want to pack my stuff and leave. All these obligations to be like and do like everyone else ... work, holiday until you retire and eventually leave this planet, there is more to it and you are doing that. Thanks for at least showing us that. Dare to stay different, laugh when everyone else seems to take things way to serious when you can do things in a fun way. You have stayed yourself the whole trip and showed us how to do it.

[@CharlineRibotta]

Wow. I was not ready to read such a beautiful message. Thank you so much Luke, your words make me happy and feel proud. I do think we all should deserve and fight to live the life we dream of, even for a short time. Thank you for your words 💙

[@chamilravindatennekoon8]

More beautiful than Rwanda. Its a pity about the DRC conflict which has more to do with natural resources. Why that conflict does not attract the same interest for media is strange. There was once an organisation named "executive outcomes " that used to specialise in creating mayhem on behalf of big governments and mining companies.

[@CharlineRibotta]

Media are not interested in Africa……it’s a shame. Or when they interested in they tell and spread bullshit about the continent.. too bad. Your message is very interesting, never heard of that company, will look out😊

The song that starts at 08:50 is so very apt for the beauty of Western Uganda. Your editing and choice of background music, Ms Ribotta, are truly exquisite. By the way, who plays the song, and what is the title? Safe travels, and please show us more of this beautiful land.

Me too this dollar exchange business can be very frustrating, I had several hundred dollars given to me by a friend when I tried to change in Laos a few months ago. Now I have found a exchange shop, part of a gold shop, where I can buy crisp new bills, also the border crossing 40$ visa must be paid in new notes.

[@CharlineRibotta]

That is so good to know in advance indeed! Sometimes it gets very confusing but most of the time it’s all good at the end with the help of the people around🙏🏽

[@arodiboyi]

Just be careful with beans, there some varieties that bloats the stomach...

[@CharlineRibotta]

[@youme1414]

I always tell travellers coming to Africa to watch out where they eat, most especially, in roadside makeshift restaurants. That is because some of them are not hygienic. I advise to always scan for suspect in the environment before buying your food. Thank you, ma'am.

[@CharlineRibotta]

You are so right to tell them! Thank you so much dear!🙏🏽

Uganda is my favourite. From being self sufficient with growing bananas, peanuts, corn, tea, coffee , can sugar, every inch is farmed. Lake Victoria is second biggest inland lake. Did you go there?

[@abbas431]

People who wash your car will appreciate the tip you give them way more than than the water you are saving. I know you're idealistic but a lot of these places have enough water. So don't feel guilty and let them was your car. They will appreciate that immensely.

[@CharlineRibotta]

Haha I know dear, but I prefer to eat with them (what I do) for nothing than to give a tip which also takes their water😉

[@ragbag46]

Do people talk about Amin and the hundreds of thousands who died under his rule, he was very cruel.

[@CharlineRibotta]

They don’t really talk about this…..probably because they are still traumatised…

[@SIRLEE]

Amin was like 50 years ago. 😂 Your question shows how much you don’t know about us. It’s like asking a German of today whether they are still guilty about what they did to the Jews or asking if the Israelites are still traumatized about the holocaust.

[@ragbag46]

Please don’t be upset, having lived in Enttebbe as a boy so many years ago I was just curious. I often think about what it would be like to return but now in my late seventies it is too late, I have such good memories, I love watching Charline adventures in East Africa, we also lived in Dar for a few years.

[@ragbag46]

@@SIRLEE the holocaust name I think is what was perpetrated by the Nazi’s but the name Israelites goes way back to the time of Jesus, correct me if I am wrong, the Bible and ancient history was never my strong point.

Ah, the food! It gets you every time you aren’t at a decent place or restaurant and one can’t pack enough self-cooked food on a journey like yours. It is a good but dangerous way to lose undesired weight! I appreciate watching the scenery and compare it to other African lands. I am impressed by the civility of the people I have seen on the videos you post. Cheers, CR.
