Boda Bodas are clearly an important part of Ugandan culture as they inspired the title of this photo blog. If you have absolutely no idea what a boda boda is, don't worry! I had no clue until a few days before arriving in Uganda. Boda bodas (just "boda" for short) are essentially motorcycles used as taxis, primarily in the more populated areas of the country. Boda boda men wait on their motorcycles at various street corners and popular sites around Jinja and when you need to go somewhere, you just say "hello" and hop on! I usually take a boda into Jinja Town from the Sole Hope guesthouse as the main street is about 4-5 km away.
