I'm Annelie, a Swedish ambassador for Bwindi Angels of Hope. I traveled to the place where the organization is based, it's the best thing I've done in my life. Here I was met by the most kind-hearted hospitable wonderful people there is. I was met by a magnificent nature that just has to be experienced. Here I was met by love and joy. I heard how the African drums followed the wind. I met the wise lady with great knowledge of nature's healing power. And I met the children in all their bright joy, the children with the rhythm of the African drums in their blood. I lived in a family that gave me so much care and love and the most wonderful food I have eaten with it's unique spices and colors that filled the palate with such joy. I have walked in the magnificent nature together with Stephen and Bruno which was so amazing to listen to their knowledge about the jungle and its inhabitants, had a conversation with a chameleon who was slowly walking up a branch, listened to the rippling of the water and the calls of the birds . I have hiked up to a high altitude to view the magnificent view of the Bwindi jungle with Vincent and two other gentlemen with great knowledge of the outdoors. All the fantastic and interesting meetings with people in different positions gave me a lot. Every Friday there was a market and I loved this market which was filled with the murmur of the people and lovely smells from fruits and vegetables, pastries and fish. Here there were clothes and shoes, beauty items were also not forgotten, all these conversations in the market between sellers and buyers were unique . Being part of Glow community school, where I spent time with all the children of different ages, filled my heart with so many emotions, both tears, joy and an enormous amount of care. Listening to the teachers and experiencing their immense patience and joy in teaching ABC and Mathematics to lots of children of different ages was so rewarding. I have listened to the children when they sing the most beautiful songs and they dance the culture dancing. It's like they are born with this dance in themselves. I feel immense pride to be part of Bwindi Angels of Hope. I recommend all people from all walks of life to visit the organization, maybe you are here on adventure but when you are here take time and visit us, come and become our volunteer, maybe you want to be a partner with the organization. Welcome to Bwindi Angels of Hope and experience this fantastic place on earth. I hope to meet you in the future here in Rubuguri Town Uganda.
