About Me
- Name: Megan Summers
- Location: Mukono, Uganda
I am a Junior, sociology major from Dallas, Texas and am currently enrolled at Geneva College in Pennsylvania. I chose the Uganda Studies Program because I wanted to become immersed in another very different and non-modernized culture (that speaks Swahili AND English..yea). Some of the things I will be doing while in Uganda are: Attending classes daily at the University (about 3000 students from all over Africa), visiting Murchurion Falls, sleeping under a mosquito net haha, rafting the Nile, washing my clothes by hand (yikes), staying with two host families, visiting Rwanda for a couple weeks, and mainly just learning from them and their ways of living. Uganda Christian University is located in a small town, Mukono, Uganda and overlooks Lake Victoria. It is also more lengthy walking distance from the larger town of Kampala, Uganda. It is located almost directly on the equator, making the temperature consistently 85 degrees during the day, with a couple rainy seasons as well.
