On 2nd February 2022 my partner and I will be making a year in our relationship. Our first meeting was at the media advocacy training that was organized by Kuchu Times Media Group in Mbarara.

I spotted her and immediately made contact, we always moved out together for break and lunch, I made sure to wait for her and her friend who was at the event to have a table so that I could also join them and at least hear her voice. What attracted me to her was her accent because we once shared a WhatsApp group where she’d send voice notes it was like music to my ears. When I made first contact she said we could be friends on Facebook. We continued with the conversation and by the time the training ended we had become close.

It has been a year now and despite the ups and downs we have become one. Long live Kuchu Times because without you I would never have met my soul mate.
