Kenny is an innovation consultant originally from Nigeria and living in Uganda. During episode 40 of the Are we home yet podcast listen to my interview with Kenny, an expat from Nigeria, who talks about his time in Uganda. Kenny also speaks about the best decision he ever made, which was joining the AIESEC network. “I’ve met so many friends outside of work through AIESEC,” Kenny says. Listen to the interview now!Kenny has gotten to know so many people from joining the AIESEC network and can't stress enough how important it is to network and of course spend time with friends, and get to know one another. The importance of social networking offline Social networking offline is extremely important. In the physical world, face-to-face interactions are the norm, and the benefits of social networking are evident. For example, research has shown that people who have strong social ties are more likely to live longer and be happier than those who don't. In addition, face-to-face interactions allow for the exchange of nonverbal cues that can help build trust and rapport. However, in the online world, social networking often takes the form of text-based interactions. While this can be helpful in some ways, it also has its limitations. For instance, it's difficult to build trust with someone you've never met in person. In addition, the lack of nonverbal cues can make it easy to misread someone's tone or intentions. As a result, social networking offline is still the best way to build strong relationships. During his time in Uganda, Kenny, has made good friends with his local coworkers and it's made all the difference in finding joy in his new home of Uganda. The time in Uganda Time in Uganda is a bit different than time in most other places. For one thing, the sun rises and sets much earlier here. As a result, people tend to wake up early and go to bed early. This can be a bit of an adjustment for visitors from more temperate climates. In addition, Uganda is located on the equator, so there is very little variation in the length of days throughout the year. The country does experiences two wet seasons, which can impact travel plans. Overall, Uganda is a great place to visit, and its unique time zone is just one of the many things that make it special. The local time in Uganda is GMT+3. Uganda is located in the Eastern Africa Time Zone. Eastern Africa Time (EAT) is 3 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Uganda spans two time zones, but the country currently only observes one time zone (EAT) due to its proximity to the equator. The westernmost part of Uganda near the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) observes Central Africa Time (CAT), which is 2 hours behind EAT. However, this part of Uganda does not currently observe daylight saving time. For most of Uganda, the current time in Uganda is EAT (GMT+3). Despite its relatively small size, Uganda offers a wide range of experiences for visitors. From wildlife-watching safaris to trekking through stunning mountains and forests, there is something for everyone to enjoy in this beautiful country.
