Akemi Basha
Tour Operations ManagerI worked for a financial institution in Japan and I love traveling abroad, so much so that I used to go to some country every year during long holidays.
I am very interested in visiting many countries, experiencing their culture and discovering their differences from Japan. I also wanted to live in a foreign country one day, so I moved to Uganda in 2012 with my Ugandan husband and child.
Unlike Japan, Uganda has very little in the way of entertainment, but the time spent in Uganda’s natural environment will be a time of peace and tranquility that you can rarely find in Japan.
In Uganda, you can enjoy the luxury of swimming in a swimming pool, looking out over Lake Victoria, Africa’s largest lake, and biting into a 30-centimeter-sized fried tilapia, which is something you cannot experience in Japan.
“I am a highly determined marketing manager with natural communicating skills and able to offer an engaging and informative tour to our customers.
