Juba - an African metropolis at the end of a murram road
I know it doesn't pay Juba justice to post only one photo (but I had the feeling that the average SPLA soldier would not be happy with looking into my camera lense - and as they seem to be all over, I limited my need to take photos).
At least this image illustrates perfectly well how I have spent the most of the weekend - as a passenger. From Yei to Juba, and back to Yei. On courtesy of Peter from the Danish Refugee Council in Yei (who btw is the ultimative guide to Juba).
I have to go back. Juba is way too exciting to only give one day. An African metropolitan in absolutely nowhere. At the end of a murram road. Scattered around a mountain along the River Nile. With the greatest mix of people and languages. From super expensive wazungu lodges to massive pot holes and garbage piles. Lazy flies, dust, rain and sun.
