Welcome Back

After much deliberation this winter and spring, I made the decision to return to the White Nile River in Uganda to work for the remainder of the summer season.  I'll be teaching kayaking for Kayak the Nile and leading sit-on-top trips for Kayak Cruises. Check out the website to book trips or see what i'll be doing at www.kayakthenile.com

It was a hard decision to come back- but made the choice to be here for the last bit of time before the top section gets dammed this coming year. The river is as beautiful as always, if a bit low.  

I arrived back in Jinja on Saturday, and have worked a few days already, partied a few nights already, and am starting to get back into the swing of things.  

Its good to be back- everyone has been extremely welcoming, from my friends, the people I work with, and even the locals.  Everywhere i have gone so far i have recieved encouraging "Welcome Back"s!  Its always flattering to have felt missed, and also flattering to have people surprised that i left. It feels oddly normal to be back here, though the leisurely lifestyle doesn't seem quite as appealing as it did last year.  All in all, good to be doing something, and happy to get some sun!
