I was held down by traffic just 30 minutes to the close of my daughter’s Open Day in school; I realized how important it was that I attended such function but my thoughts were already defeated; “I can’t make it on time – what a waste of effort with those Catholic Schools and their strict […]

I have never heard of The Goat Race until I got to Uganda – Luckily for me it was held once a year at the Munyonyo Resort where I was residing in Kampala so it was easy to get full gist and access to the venue. It is actually one of the biggest events in […]
I really learnt so many things in 2010 from books, movies to varying speakers but none of these lessons can be compared to one I picked from personal experience.
