My trade is shoemaking. I opened my own shop in 1986 in Mbale and I'm still there most mornings.
The best compliment I ever got was a customer who called me back 10 years later for another job.
If we met, say hello. I'd love to know how life turned out.

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
