1/2 change and prolonged drought. There has been a significant change in rain patterns. Food planting in Uganda and generally Africa is based on rain seasons. Prolonged drought has therefore made it difficult to plant crops which has led to food shortages and hence famine.

Why am I doing this? Firstly I’m not rich but I have enough. I want to create a culture of giving to help the worlds poor break the cycle of poverty and create equality in this world.

Secondly the more followers I have it will help a lot in gaining sponsorship for my 4000km “triathlon” through Africa next year. I want to showcase the amazing cultures and landscapes this continent has to offer. Thanks heaps for you support 👍

Meet Kate lemming, this Australian legend who has just become the first person to cycle the length of the skeleton coast in Namibia. Great to have her stay at our place and share stories from our long distance adventures over the years. #namibia @leeming_kate
