Ugandans are some of Africa’s Friendliest – Welcoming, and Hospitable People
Friendly – Welcoming – Uganda – where you will find African Hospitality at its best
Many considering traveling to the Pearl of Africa often ask about Safety and Security, knowing little about Friendly – Welcoming – Uganda, where Hospitality is an ingrained cultural tradition.
To most, Uganda is part of the great African unknown. One reason is that the only news that people get in other parts of the world about Uganda does not reflect the reality of the way that Uganda really is o visitors, Friendly, Welcoming, and Hospitable.
Like many African countries, Uganda has an image problem. The little that people know is through the lens of the country’s history. The haunting and lingering Ghosts of Idi Amin do not reflect the Friendly – Welcoming, and Hospitable country that Uganda really is.
Good news reports out of Africa are a rarity. You may never know that Uganda is a safer COVID Pandemic travel destination with no hospitalized cases at the end of April 2022.
Few know how Friendly – Welcoming Uganda. In his 1908 book “My African Journey,” Winston Churchill wrote “The Kingdom of Uganda is a fairy tale. The scenery is different, the Climate is different, and most of all, the people are different from anything elsewhere to be seen in the whole range of Africa….what message I bring back….concentrate on Uganda.” Winston Churchill exclaimed in 1908″the people are different.” Yes, they are, they are some of Africa’s friendliest, most welcoming and hospitable in all of Africa.
When Visitors arrive in Uganda, they are amazed by the Ugandans, amazed at how wrong they were about the country since the reality is quite the opposite of what they imagined.
Discover Friendly – Welcoming Uganda
Friendly – Welcoming Uganda, the Pearl of Africa, is one of the most welcoming countries. Uganda is not only Safe, Secure, and Stable, but Friendly. In a recent survey of African Nations, Uganda ranked in the top ten friendliest and most welcoming countries in Africa.
Visitors to both Uganda are often concerned about their safety and well-being. Not knowing how welcoming and friendly and hospital Ugandans are. Visitors often feel safer, more secure, and more welcomed in the Pearl of Africa than in their own country.
A Welcoming Friendliness is the norm and not the exception in the country. While in the country, you will often hear, “you are most welcome.” That greeting is more than a glib phrase but part of the relational aspect of the Ugandan culture.
You always shake hands when you welcome someone in Uganda, except during the COVID pandemic. The welcome is an acknowledgment, a recognition, and one always asks about the other’s well-being and family. The welcome is part of the relational nature of Uganda that comes before anything else.
There is something genuinely sacred about it. It is no wonder Uganda is the Number One nation when welcoming refugees from neighboring troubled countries. Countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Burundi, Rwanda, and South Sudan. Over a million refugees have found welcome in Uganda.
