Welcome to Uganda and to the Eye Magazine – An Insider’s Guide to Uganda.

A 1st Century BC writer by the name of Publilius Syrus once said, “A rolling stone can gather no moss”.

Well, the Eye Magazine is on a roll and we have made some major changes to the magazine so that it is easier for you to find what you are looking for. If you are looking for accommodation, entertainment or sports in Jinja, then look under Jinja. If your travels are taking you to Fort Portal, simply look under Fort Portal, it’s that easy! We have placed all the useful information under “Information worth Knowing”, plus you can find all our interesting articles in one place too.

In this issue we have some wonderful articles for you to read, from horse riding to replacing your teeth, from boda boda’s to sugar addiction and from a yoga communication retreat, to the South African Women’s Association and we trust you will enjoy reading them.

The Eye Magazine has launched a new and exciting web service called Eye Trade and we intend to make it Uganda’s biggest online market place. If you’ve got anything (and we do mean anything) to sell, you can advertise it for free on our website. Log onto www.eyetrade.ug now and search through the items of interest to you. You can obtain the seller’s contact details for free. There is space for everything, from cars to cattle, furniture to fumigation equipment, roller blades to real estate. As a seller, there is no limit on how many items you can upload. If you’ve got something to sell, somebody out there will be interested in buying it. And we’ll help you find that somebody! Feel free to create an account and start uploading items for sale now.

We’d like to hear from you, so please email us at theeye@theeye.co.ug and let us know what you think about the new look of the magazine and about our new online marketplace, Eye Trade. If you have anything useful to add or you have any article suggestions for us, then please do get in touch.

Enjoy Uganda
