While walking through Jinja Town located near the River Nile in Uganda, we came across this young man with his sewing machine. We started a brief discussion as I wanted to learn about his life and what he was sewing because the fabric was so beautiful.

He spoke about how life is not easy for him as he sews from sunrise to sunset but he still had a good disposition. He was happy to be sitting outside in the warm sunshine. He was also happy to speak to the various people who stopped to speak with him during his long day.

I asked him if I could take his photo and he paused, gave me a smile, let me take his photos and then resumed his job.

When travelling around the world, you will come across so many different people with different life stories - taking the time to get to know them, and learn about a different culture makes for a richer experience. Always asking for permission to take photos of people you meet, especially in different lands is also important - practicing ethical photography.

While in Uganda, I visited a village that subsists on the arts and crafts they sell to tourists. This lady made these amazing baskets out of Sisal, which is naturally grown across Uganda.

Not only did they raise the $5,000 but they overshot it by $200 and the donations keep coming.

Here's the thank you video I did - if you want to get involved in the next global photo walk, make sure you follow 24HourProject and keep up to date with their news.

Last year I visited the Maasai tribe in Arusha, Tanzania, and got the opportunity to document the slaughter of a goat, in celebration of a wedding that had taken place the night before.

In this photo, a Maasai is taking out the skinned te**es of the goat to be shared with the other Maasia who took part in the ritual.
